Obviously, one of the BK based domains is not going to cut it because people will think we're using it to advertise how BK is going to rule the world, etc. etc. The only really neutral domain I have is reggaeware.com and I'm not sure the world is ready to fill their CVS needs from cvs.reggaeware.com, eh? If someone can think of a cool name so we could have bk.coolname.com cvs.coolname.com svn.coolname.com etc and it isn't taken, send me a suggestion and I'll get it set up and point it at the right places. It seems to me that kernel.org is the right place but if hpa is too busy (which I understand and respect) then we need to come up with some sort of domain which is unused, simple, and memorable. I'm aware of the levels of distrust people have for bitmover but we could pay for it and run the DNS servers and let some set of community agreed on people manage the DNS entries if that makes people feel safe.
