Most obvious answer: Foundation. However there's\ncurrently a fairly clear line between the foundation website and the\nbitcoin.org website. I personally am fine with the bitcoin foundation\nfunding the website, it's a lot closer to the bitcoin community than\ngithub. But some people might care. So next step would be to contact the\nFoundation board and see if they're willing to fund it.\n\n2) Anti-DoS? I assume github handles this at the moment, though I doubt\nthere's anything to be gained from DoSing the informational website\n\n3) Where does the server go? Ideally, a hosting provider that accepts\nBitcoin of course!\n\n4) Who admins it?\n\n5) Who controls DNS for it?\n\nRight now I think Sirius still owns DNS for bitcoin.org which is nonsense.\nHe needs to pass it on to someone who is actually still involved with the\nproject. Again, the most obvious neutral candidate would be the Foundation.\n\nSo I think it's a good idea but there's a fair amount of work here. The\nprimary upside I see is that it opens the potential for adding\ninteractive/server-side code in future if we decide that would be useful.\n\n\n\nOn Sun, Dec 8, 2013 at 8:25 PM, Gregory Maxwell \u003cgmaxwell at gmail.com\u003e wrote:\n\n\u003e On Sun, Dec 8, 2013 at 11:16 AM, Drak \u003cdrak at zikula.org\u003e wrote:\n\u003e \u003e BGP redirection is a reality and can be exploited without much\n\u003e\n\u003e You're managing to argue against SSL.
