Subject: Re: [security-services] Tech overview: Why the switch to common TLD'sin example?
Hi Rob, the change was motivated by concerns over collisions, i.e. http://www.airlineinc.com/ We could go to cars.example.net and airline.example.com to avoid your concern (I think Eve actually had implemented this but I must have switched from 'net' to 'com' to avoid changing existing graphics) paul Philpott, Robert wrote: > Sorry if I missed some explicit discussion on this, but I noticed in > this draft, the example web site names were changed.
