very short domain name alias such as wcg.org

Hello everybody,

I'd like to advertise WCG putting something on my trumpet case (*), but I doubt here in Argentina a lot of people would remember www.worldcommunitygrid.org so I'd rather put something like

wcg.org
para todos

Now if I open this domain name I get redirected to http://www.gci.org/ which belongs to "Grace Communion International". As there is no evident connection between their name and the acronym wcg, and as at first glance they seem to pursue good for everybody, maybe they wouldn't mind to cede the domain name wcg.org to worldcommunitygrid, so we could use it as an alias.

It could be read fast and memorized easily (you should see the "how do you write it?" faces here when you invite to visit worldcommunitygrid.org).


Cheers,
Nicola


(*) written in diagonal so it can be read both when I'm keeping the case horizontal as hand bag and vertical as backpack.

wcgrid.org can be used which by most browser will be replaced by www.wcgrid.org whic then redirects to the full wcg address www.worldcommunitygrid.org.
