Has anybody else seen the website http://www.uni.ac ? They are saying they are taking pre-registering for 'uni.ac' domain names? Can they do this? Does this mean I could buy say www.education.uni.ac then have an email address educator@education.uni.ac and have a website at www.education.uni.ac? I don't know a lot about domain names but I thought only universities / colleges could have academic website addresses like this? To be fair they are saying that academic establishments will take precedence over an individual during pre-registration and they seem to have strict policies on names and websites - so if this a global academic domain name open to all, about time!, I have friends who run perfectly legitimate businesses aimed at 'academia' but are unable to get recognised because of the red tape associated with gaining the 'traditional' academic domain names . Anybody have any thoughts...
