So, *personally* I wouldn't mind if the alternative version Be:WP would retain its previous be.wikipedia.org, AS LONG AS the standard language Belarusian wiki gets ISO standard code, with no tails or suffixes, too, -- here it would be *bel.wikipedia.org*. Shouldn't be too hard to organise making of this small exception??
Thanks, Yury, for that remark! I hope foundators would make such an exception.
and i really strongly appreciate an idea of re-uniting. it seems to be useful for Belarusian common cause.
Now this is day-dreaming, no such re-uniting is possible of course. I won't go into tedious culturological details now.
But re-iterating, *as long the standard language version gets clean standard code (in this case, it would be bel:), I personally wouldn't mind.*
I don't see how such non-major exception would hurt, given this particular situation. The starting-up of our project from incubator was made in a bit of a rush, some info was lost in the transfer. Small correction then would be in order?
Not that we aren't grateful of course for that cutting the Gordian tie in the first place! --- ---
