Determine domain name for Eglide
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

First idea were to use eglide.nasqueron.org.

But this is really problematic:

  1. any user using our shell service would somewhat represent Nasqueron reputation with their host, but not all of them share Nasqueron values
  2. we currently are rather good in security as far as Ysul and Dwellers are concerned: we know what is running, we monitor security issues and upgrade fairly recently software. What our shell users will install on Eglise aren't as monitored as the remaining
  3. *.nasqueron.org is a currently trustable and trusted domain, and for example Wikimedia cluster can communicate with it to get pictures, something used by @rama and @dereckson. The security level would be decreased at a level not acceptable for Wikimedia projects to use, and so we would have to maintain a subset of trusted domain.
  4. there are a lot of users on Eglise, so a lot of opportunities to cookies hijack

So it would be preferable, as far as security and reputation are concerned, to use another domain name.

For example, eglide.org is available.

Sandlayth claimed this task.

After a conversation on #wolfplex, debating about the domain name to use, we endly concluded that Eglide will be a standalone project, nonetheless supported by Nasqueron.
Therefore, the domain name reserved for this project is eglide.org.
