Hi All,
So it seems that someone has purchased the coinzen.org domain from under us, and is currently squatting with the intention to put it up for auction.
Considering the lackluster return on investment the forum generated, I suggest we open a discussion towards rebranding coinzen. Shattienator has one a platform (ie hosting) almost ready to go, so all we need to do is figure out a new name, and what kind of people it should attract.
To start off discussion, a conversation I had with devcoiners some time ago (weisoq + others) went along the lines of changing focus from altcoins, which no one seemed to care about, to open source in general. In line with this, and to stay true to our mission, I think it would be good to start attracting people from the general open source community, including creative commons (sound and image/video), and introduce crypto-currencies to them with devcoins. In other words, make it an open source and creative commons focused forum first, and a devcoin forum as an integral part of that.
I don't really know how practical the creative commons ones would be, but I've not found something that marries these together, so there might be worth considering. If anyone knows about any, please point them out.
Also, if you can think of any good names, throw them out there and we can see what sticks (and what we can get the domain name for). New gTLDs are taking off at the moment, so we're not restricted to .com any more for global appeal. Let your thoughts be known!
