Domain name for prototypejam

[dazzaji]

to get your stuff going you need a domain name (otherwise no URL callback or other stuff works) i have a few that are appropriate for your project i can donate to the cause, assuming the purpose is to develop something intended for eventual handoff to properly constituted municipalities of the United States. Let me know which of the following you want (if any) and let's transfer now (in case of delays) so it is ready to point at servers and such in time for PrototypeJam:

• ECITIZENCONNECT.ORG (good name for the service, eh?)
  and
• ECITIZENCOUNCIL.ORG (could be a good name for the governing body...or at least a user-oriented group that governs terms applicable to their own personal data type of private property).

I have a slew of other names used for various similar projects in the past. Let me know if you want to go shopping (but only if you don't want to use these names).

For now we are living on subdomains under by savagesoft.com because I have control of where it points to. I picked up a cheap virtual host on GoDaddy to get us started.

@MichaelRobak would you want the law school to purchase the domains?

I'm offering these domains for this project and for the purpose of
providing the domains to a group of city and/or other public entities of
the United States that may (hopefully) in the future wish to adopt and
carry forward the goals of this project. If UMKC wants to act as that sort
of domain name escrow agent I'll be happy to transfer. It is sometimes a
better fit for the project steward - especially when a steward of a group
like Code for America - to play this type of role. But given UMKC is a
public institution, and the disposition of the Dean, the university may be
a good fit for this temporary name holding role.

The subdomain under your private domain seems a good fit for the time
being. You technically just need server space you can config enough to set
up OIDC for the indefinite future. Sounds like you have that. Good.
