hi, it seems there is a lot of mention to libbitcoin.org that do not resolve . a duplicate content libbitcoin.info do resolve ...

xraid09:30
links are all over
jungly10:17
OK. So it is a find and replace fix. Thanks for pointing this out. @evoskuil should we change these over to the new domain? Happy to do a quick PR.
evoskuil16:10
Yeah, it’s been a couple years. There was an attempt to get .org over to me but that got stalled.

@evoskuil I can try contact owner of domain and offer 10$ for transfer to You ...or I will say ICANN UDRP will help in transfer it to You ...

It’s not an ownership issue, “we” own it.

xraid01:55

evoskuil01:55

what's the story
evoskuil01:57
Amir’s admin has it, seems to get sidetracked for long periods.
neillm01:59
I'd say for now, @jungly see if it's easily accomplished via build, otherwise the find/replace as mentioned. It's been years, and mostly down during that period.

evoskuil02:00

it should be possible ask owner for dns access and so it can be managed by the project or amir need change admin
evoskuil02:10
A transfer to me was attempted twice, just doesn’t get completed. It’s not a priority of mine. He owns it and it’s up to him what to do with it.
neillm02:10
@xraid It's been tried, a lot, as far as I know. Maybe better to move on.

xraid02:14
it diffuses the brand is all . kind of obfuscating . maybe good to be not so accessible for all . kind of camoflaged 🙂

Bitcoin is bitcoin -- it's out there.

xraid02:15
ahhh
neillm02:16
A stable site would be great, even if a bit out of date. A place to point to development at least.

xraid02:17
but libbitcoin is a brand of bitcoin parallel with bitcoin-core etc.
neillm02:17
libbitcoin is bitcoin, I guess I don't think about the marketing.

xraid02:19
libbitcoin is a brand of bitcoin ahhh a label of bitcoin
X
xraid02:21
For these reasons Bitcoin is used herein as a label for Cryptodynamic Principles. Implementations are referred to by their brands, such as "Bitcoin Core" or "Libbitcoin";
bitcoin.org
neillm02:21
I don't know what that means really. We're not selling anything -- we're offering bitcoin, as implemented, which to me is bitcoin. If that refers to a brand, I'm ok with that.
neillm02:22
^ Right, an implementation.

xraid02:56
ahhh ok a brand do not have to be commercial but it can be used for carrying specific characteristics in a labeled product as in this case an implementation
