Ownership for exiv2.org

Dear Community Members,

The domain exiv2.org has expired and we are looking for a new owner.

Hosting is not an issue as it is entirely on Github.

If you wish to contribute & maintain the domain and DNS entries, please chime in at exiv2.org expires on February 29, 2024 · Issue #2875 · Exiv2/exiv2 · GitHub

Welcome to the forum, and thanks for bringing this up. FAO @patdavid

Yep, this is entirely my fault. The team has reached out to me multiple times and been very patient, and I just dropped the ball. I am sorry.

I’ve emailed the team this morning @nehaljwani and initiated transfer of the domain to gandi - I’ll just need an authorization code from the current registrar to finish (email me).

So sorry for the delay!

please also provide a list of the current DNS records in the zone. they might be transfered during the domain transfer. but a backup would be good.

I’m sharing the list of DNS (946 Bytes) entries as of the last snapshot I had for posterity.

The domain transfer requires access to the PairDomains account, which I don’t have due to 2FA.

After the expiry on Feb 29, the domain will be available for renewal with PairDomains for 38 days. Perhaps after that period, it can be registered with a different provider.

Hello @darix, now that the domain has been transferred to gandi.net, could you please update the DNS entries as shared in the message above?

so … i can not change dns records without switching the dns from the current DNS provider to gandi. not sure if that will cause any downtimes.
if that would be ok we can change that

Given that the site as already down, I don’t think that’s a problem :wink:

“Nameserver change launched. Please allow 12-24 hours for propagation before testing.”

and while we are at it I also turned on DNSSEC.

not sure if the cname/dname for exiv2.org will work. but we will see. the rest of the records can already be tested directly against the gandi servers.

solved that problem by following the github docs at Managing a custom domain for your GitHub Pages site - GitHub Docs

and for some resolvers exiv2.org is already working.
