in Wales
Subject: HELP PLEASE.
The Welsh language and culture is a community that we believe should be identified and enhanced by having its own sponsored top-level domain (sTLD) on the Internet. Under a .CYM sponsored TLD those organisations, companies and individuals, throughout the world, that express themselves in the Welsh language and/or wish to encourage Welsh culture will be able to be registered and will be clearly identifiable.
The success of the dotCYM campaign will unite the Welsh-speaking communities across the world. As well as Wales, there are historic Welsh communities in other parts of the British Isles, North and South America, and Australia.
The success of the dotCYM campaign will confirm that the World Wide Web really is multi-national and a multilingual medium. It will also play a pivotal role in promoting further the use of the Welsh language on the World Wide Web as a modern medium of communication.
We can succeed. Recently an application by puntCAT for a .cat domain for the Catalan language and culture was accepted. But if we are to be Welsh withour frontiers we need your help. Join up!
To assist please sign the petition here http://www.dotcym.org/index.php?opti...id =2&lang=en
As a Nation we need your assistance, PLEASE HELP, Alan
dowch dâ chi arwyddwch nawr.!!

Don't understand what you mean Tom. Its a petition; even if it happens its not going to cost taxpayers anything. It'll just mean organisations/companies will be able to purchase .cym rather than .co.uk web addresses.0 -
Hang on it's being sponsered by the Welsh Assembly, no doubt with many Civil Servants involved at some point ............so IMHO a waste of taxpayers money.0
