Hello,

Damn, this is horrible. Someone really should buy it now, at best maybe IEM? I would donate money for, say, the first year. Let's act soon.
We can buy the domain also without donation, just a decision what.
I also saw that puredata.org was grapped since a short time from an guy from netherland, maybe he is in the pd community we can talk with...
I heard that it's possible to deal with those domain name pirates. They might ask a lot, so let them understand that we don't really need this domain name; they might accept to sell it at a lower cost.
If it doesn't work, we could register: pure-data.info puredata.info pure-data.nu puredata.nu pure-data.cc puredata.cc or something else...
a) should we take the .info domain ?
b) would anybody mail to the domainname grabbers company if the give this us, since we run the site for free ?
