[Plone-IT] Plone domains and the Foundation

[Geir Bækholt]

Plone people!

As Plone has grown from a small spare-time project to one of the most  
successful software projects of its type in the world, many of the  
people making out the great Plone community have helped Plone prosper  
by registering domain names for websites for user groups, regional  
Plone work and other specific Plone efforts.

The Plone Foundation is extremely grateful for all work and money  
invested in this, and wants to thank all local communities, companies,  
user groups and individuals that have contributed to this over the  
years.

Thanks to sponsorships from the community, both organisations and  
individuals, the Plone Foundation is now able to maintain these  
domains on its own.

As an investment in the future and our trademark rights, the Plone  
Foundation is now starting an effort to  consolidate Plone domains  
under Plone Foundation ownership. This will let domains stay active  
beyond the interest and involvement of volunteers - and reduce costs  
for individual Plone groups.


Request from the Foundation to all Plone community members:
If you, your user group or organisation control a Plone-related domain  
name, please send an email to baekholt at plone.org to notify the  
Plone Foundation of its existence.


Best regards
Plone Foundation Board
