There are new domain suffix rules so if LibreOffice could have a .libro domain suffix, but it is very expensive. $185,000.

Maybe one day it would be lower costing, like .com or .org.

I wonder which country has the .lo domain suffix? It would be interesting to have that suffix since LO is one of the abbreviations for LibreOffice.

The article stated it took 6 years to decide this new rule[s]. There are over 300 domain suffixes, with the bulk being country codes. The article stated that suffixes like .apple, .ipad, .lego and other business or product names could be used, as long as there is not trademark or copyright infringement. .bank and .hotel could be used for those type of businesses. Well after the powers-that-be approved .xxx for a domain suffix, this move to business and company name suffixes was the next step.

So what do you think? Would it be a great marketing "tool" to have a LibreOffice domain suffix? I know that .TV is being used for marketing and that domain is for a small island government. I wonder which country uses .lo and would registration of that .lo suffix would be possible at all.
