[Koha] PTFS Acquisition of LibLime Reactivated and Completed (Wagner, Jan

Bingo!
 
"The Community" should control the site,  however



 
Thanks,

I think if PTFS wants to host the site on their servers, that would be  
fine, and their support and contributions would be more than welcome, as it is  
now. "The Community" should control the site, however, as 
koha-community.org is  controlled and managed now. That implies that the community should own 
the  domain name koha.org. I don't see anything that changes the need to 
make forward  progress with the HLT organizational effort, which could hold 
the domain  ownership. If that doesn't happen, then koha-community.org will 
continue to be  the Real Koha website. PTFS could still own liblime.com.

Without commenting on any other effect of  the announcement regarding the 
PTFS acquisition of LibLime, I am curious about  views of the Koha community 
regarding the statement: "PTFS pledges to enhance  and maintain the 
www.koha.org site as the focal point for the world’ s Koha  activities– the place 
to find the latest information on Koha support,  documentation, news, and 
downloads." Will a PTFS hosted koha.org be regarded as  the web presence for 
the global Koha community? Will koha-community.org/  continue, and which site 
will in fact be regarded as the global community site?
