I just noticed this whois entry:
$ whois taibun.tw [Querying whois.twnic.net] [whois.twnic.net] Domain Name: taibun.tw Contact: LEE, SHENG-AN shengan@gmail.com Record expires on 2007-11-08 (YYYY-MM-DD) Record created on 2005-11-02 (YYYY-MM-DD) Registrar: HINET
Apparently this is a second-level domain for Taiwanese-language websites. Can anyone clarify? – Kaihsu 16:20, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
It seems to host the digital archive of the National Museum of Taiwanese Literature: http://www.taibun.tw/ – Kaihsu 09:32, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
- How is this different from any other second-level domain registration? (Other than that it's a site with lots of pages and subdomains)? It doesn't seem to be a domain that accepts third-level registrations. *Dan T.* 12:16, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
Never mind. I was not aware that one could directly apply to be registered at the second level. – Kaihsu 15:08, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
