Problem with www.alsa-project.org web site.

Problem with www.alsa-project.org web site.

[James Courtier-Dutton]

The real ALSA project web site is http://www.alsa-project.org/

There appears to now be a FAKE alsa project web site
http://www.alsaproject.org/

The only difference being the "-" sign.

I think that in the intrests of users, we should fight to get ownership 
of alsaproject.org.

Any comments?

James

It seems like that the ALSA project web name is used to increase adverts 
for an Italian company.

So, based on that, could we not complain to the appropriate DNS 
organisation, and get the name for ourselves?
