[gentoo-dev] Only an opinion ...

I think Crucial is a good company too, by a *.org
should not have publicity.

With a *.net or *.com it is OK

Please back up your conviction with a donation equal to the revenue that

I wouldn't call gentoo.com a squatter.  According to the whois records,
that domain has been registered since 1992-03-26.

: Even worse is gentoolinux.com:

And this one was created 1999-11-30.  Which I believe is almost a month
before Gentoo made it's debut on Freshmeat.

Yes, but we were using the name a while before the freshmeat post.

I called him a squatter b/c of the nature of the page at gentoo.com. 
 It's like, here are all the sites that could have gentoo.com; who is 
the highest bidder?

That is just what occurred to me when I saw the page.

Then again, you'll notice that he also links di(1), his df(1) which has
been around since 1994/95.

Maybe he's just being polite and linking to the other sites that people
may be looking for.
