If we were to acquire the "mainegeolibrary.org" domain I believe that we
would be able to register sites such as with "www.", "ftp.", "portal.",
etc at the beginning.  I think this would give us greater flexability.

Could we actually include the word portal to make the url
"mainegeolibrarypotal.org"?

I am not qualified to weigh in on this, but to my untutored eye
"mainegeolibrary.org" seems most appropriate. Thank you, Mike - you'll
get more informed feedback from other board members.

Actually now that I think about it, the GeoLibrary really should have
its own domain name.  The URLs I previously suggested indicate that the
portal is a "maine.gov" system, which is not really true.  It is a
GeoLibrary system, which just happens to be hosted by Maine OIT for the
time being.

I took the liberty of trying a few and the domain "mainegeolibrary.org"
is available.  "geolibrary.org" is not available.

Any thoughts on this?
