Subject: Re: .museum addressesHi, Cherie -We're not planning to register a .museum address. As far as I can tell, this isn't an issue that's being discussed much in the NYS museum community. Off the top of my head, I don't know of an institution that's registered as a .museum (at least that's not the primary address that they're using). If I were you, I think I'd hold off and put the money to some other (better) use.Anne Ackerson, DirectorMuseum Association of New York----- Original Message -----From: [log in to unmask] href="mailto:[log in to unmask]">Cherie CookTo: [log in to unmask] href="mailto:[log in to unmask]">[log in to unmask]Sent: Tuesday, June 03, 2003 1:42 PMSubject: .museum addressesSeveral years ago, we began the process of registering for one of the new .museum Internet addresses and paid MuseDoma $100 for application registration. We've now received word that it is time to register our name (oklahoma.association.museum) with one of the authorized registrars which will cost $200 for two years. Here's my question: are other state/regional/national associations moving forward with this process? Does anyone have knowledge (or a guess!) whether many museums are planning to make use of the .museum addresses? I'm wondering if it is worth the money to register this new address along with our current one. Is anyone in the same boat?CherieCherie Cook, Executive Director
