TUMEKE!: Buying .ao from Angola

Friday, April 29, 2005

Buying .ao from Angola

Thinking of forming a New Zealand syndicate to buy .ao from Angola so we can have one for Aotearoa. Any assistance greatly appreciated.

Why can't we have .aa? It's logical - AoteAroa (.ao, .at and .ae are taken + it's syllabic)
At 1/5/05 9:30 pm, Bomber said...: I'm guessing they could buy a small, poorly equipped field hospital to fight Marburg outbreaks, or El Presidente could by himself a new Lexus with the amount of money it would take. The Angolan's can get another one, or failing that borrow a neighbour's.

.aa you reckon? Hmmm.
At 2/5/05 2:49 pm, Anonymous said...: Yeah, whatever. Kia ora to that idea.
At 20/5/05 2:59 pm, Anonymous said...: I like .aa.

Alphabetically speaking.
At 20/5/05 3:13 pm, Bomber said...: .aa? It does have that something. I think the natural two letter abbreviation for Aotearoa would be ao, but then again South Africa is still .za and that's not a hassle.

I'll have to chat with David Farrar about it as I understand he is on the internet committee for the .nz domain. We could run the republic online in preparation for the real thing - perhaps.
