Hello,
sorry for being out of touch.
I just stumbled across a service called www.registernic.net. Apparently,
they are handing out .com, .org and .net domains and 6MB of webspace
free for two years. They register in your name, and they don't even ask
for credit card data.
Checking a couple of likely addresses, I found www.legOS.net to be
unallocated and applied for it. If all goes on schedule, this should be
granted within a week or two.
I hope this will put an end to all download corruption problems. Moving
is also an incentive for revamping. On the new site, there'll probably
be an "Add a link" section, as well as a guestbook page for commments,
patches and suchlike.
If we keep large archives off-site, e.g., the egcs binaries for various
platforms, there should also be plenty of room for projects like
emulegOS and OnScreen Programming on the site.
Ideas?

| (...) Markus, It might be a good idea to carefully review the LEGO Group's policies on domain names, possibly even retaining an attornery if you are serious, or contacting TLG attorneys with specific questions. Note that TLG's "Fair Play" page (URL) (...) (25 years ago, 21-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
