Email Discussion and Vote from 04/14/2006 to 04/17/2006
Proposed by: Jason Halprin
Current Status: FAILED: NO QUORUM
Text of Proposal:
Background
-----------
This domain name issue is proving to be a difficult one to overcome,
indeed.
Apparently, twelvehorses.com is now a rather large and inaccessible corporation that has a 'hold' on the nevadagreenparty.org domain name so we are unable to switch companies while maintaining this domain name. Paul E. is working on a resolution for this and will hopefully have this ironed out soon. Part of the problem is maneuvering so that nevadagreenparty.org ends up registered in the name of the Green Party of Nevada, with the Green Party of Nevada credit card.
In the meantime, we need to get some more domain names so that this cannot happen again. Two of the past suggestions have been:
1) gpnv.org
2) greenpartyofnevada.org
Prosposal
-----------
Purchase both the gpnv.org and greenpartyofnevada.org domain names to be
hosted at Gandi.net for one year. On Gandi.net, they claim these domain
names to be about $14 per domain name per year. This will mean that we
will spend up to $30 for the nevadagreenparty.org domain name for two
years (according to the Domain Name Registration proposal that was just
passed) and an additional $28 - $30 on the gpnv.org and
greenpartyofnevada.org domain names for one year, all hosted on
Gandi.net.
Long-term maintenance for three domain names would be approximately $45 per year.
Time Frame
----------
Please respond to this proposal by Friday, April 21, 2006.
