New PolicyThe museum domains have a new naming policy.
In former times the museum-domains had to have a third-level-structure in the form specific.generic.museum. It was e.g.
not possible to register moma.museum. The three-level-domains are persisting, but you can also register second level domains like guggenheim.museum.
It is important, that the second level domain is derived directly from the official name of the museum. Digital Museum.Digital museums are eligible to register museum-domains.
It is only logic, that the digital museum get the digital address of museums - the museum-domain. The managers of digital museums can register at .museum or at virtual.museum, digital.museum, online.museum or cyber.museum - even at all second levels.
