What is myanmarwikipedia.org <http://myanmarwikipedia.org/>? How did you get permission to use our name? Did you ask anyone before doing this?
I don't need any permission for domain registration.
No, but it is our longstanding custom that people should not use the name "Wikipedia" for a separate website without asking first. Are you planning to use this for-profit? Who is the owner of it? Will you donate the domain name to the Foundation and assure me that you are not trying to separate the Myanmar community from Wikipedia?
What do you mean NO?
I respect "Wikipedia", but not you.
We will NOT donate the domain name, instead I request the Foundation to lease temporary domain name of
zawgyi.wikipedia.org. This will assue that the Foundation has some control of our work.
It is rather appreance that
myanmarwikipedia.org is to seperate Myanmar community, for those who love Zawgyi and for those who love Unicode 5.1.
What do you mean "costly"? There is ZERO COST to what Michael is proposing.
We need to discuss at length for this issue.
Yes, I am glad we will now have a mailing list so I can understand what you mean.
Could you clearify that Mr Eversion's proposed translation task is ZERO COST or not?
