Description
Imagine promoting your project with a myproject.foss domain, immediately showing off that your project has an open-source license before even visiting your site.
Not gonna happen, there are currently no plans to delegate FOSS as a TLD.
We can do the next best thing: order foss.sometld and allow registrations for projects to get their myproject.foss.sometld. Not as shiny as .foss, but the next best thing.
When the license of the project is accepted (for example, all OSI- or FSF-approved licenses), the project gets their free subdomain.
Project phases:
- Make a directory of FOSS projects and display as list
- Automatically/manually handle DNS administration for subdomains and forward to project's hosting or gitlab/github pages
- Allow hosting of static website
Status
Phase 1: in development.
