what to do with wmfcloud.org
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Thanks to @Majavah 's suggestion, Legal has just registered wmfcloud.org to point at prod nameservers.

If there's a trivial way to set up a redirect there, we should do that!

If there's a trivial way to set up a redirect there, we should do that!

Probably just needs a patch like https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/operations/puppet/+/614882 and adding DNS to CNAME wmfcloud.org and www.wmfcloud.org to wmcloud.org.

[operations/dns@master] Add parking domain for wmfcloud.org

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/762075

We need to manage its DNS via Designate if we want to use it with project-proxy's acme-chief.

True, although I wasn't hoping to make a seamless mapping of the sites, just have the generic wmfcloud.org url map to the same thing as e.g. wmflabs.org. Having wmfcloud work the same as wmcloud would be fancy but maybe beyond my current ambition.

nskaggs moved this task from Inbox to Needs discussion on the cloud-services-team (Kanban) board.

Change 762075 abandoned by Andrew Bogott:

[operations/dns@master] Add parking domain for wmfcloud.org

Reason:

I don't care much about parking/redirect... having reserved the domain name is good enough to avoid squatters.

For now, we will hold the domain and prevent misuse.

Reason:

We're just squatting for now, no redirects.
