There is NO need for a change, choice, decision.

There is only a lack of understanding by some of:

1. what we need: a legal name to incorporate a secretariat and a banking 
account

2. what we already have: a global name "@large"

3. what is an internet name.
This NOT because some want the current site to be accessed through a name 
or another that it cannot be accessed with other names (aliases if no 
dedicated IP address), with every other names (if having a dedicated IP 
address).

If this situation is not solved asap, here is what I propose:
1. I do not understand who is currently in charge of the WG-SITE - I was 
while Joanna was on transfer. But I will set-up http://website.atlarge.ws 
with a mailing list everyone interested may join.
2. we will put a link on http://atlarge.ws and request one to Joop on 
http://icannatlarge.com/org
3. we will work on a solution asap
4. we will write a FAQ to explain exactly what it means so everyone can 
understand.

I really have a huge personnal work load, so please allow me some sleep. I 
will try to have that up and running in the comming day or so. The problem 
is also the DNS propagation and VRSN updates while may nameservers are 
changing IPs.
Cheers.
