Hi all,
Recently, yet another discussion on linux-kernel has indicated that we
really do need to formalize a Linux Assigned Names And Numbers Authority
(LANA/LANANA). I have volunteered to do this, after maintaining the
Linux device name- and numberspace for the past five years.
I have checked, and the name lanana.org is available (lana.org is taken
but appears to be a squatter.) Would anyone be willing to spring for
the registration fee for this?

P.S. <Wish> It would be really nice if some of the new multi-G$ Linux
companies would buy Linux Online and make the name linux.org available
to the community, preferrably under Linus' control. We have a huge and
painful proliferation of random domains, and it's not a good thing.
