We seem to have good control over the manchester.fsuk.org domain and
it sounds like we would be able to operate independently of both Matt
and the FSF. So I would still say that at this time there is no need
to create another domain and that doing so could create unnecessary
confusion and complexity. Also, having fsuk.org in the control of the
FSF (as apposed to any one individual) seems like a really good
solution and should be much better for when other uk groups are
formed.
