Dot Gov Domain Names Several years ago, GSA was charged with managing the .gov domain by the Federal Networking Council.  Fortunately, Utah had obtained the utah.gov domain prior to that time.  Today, GSA finalized rules associated with dot gov.  The rule includes recommendations for local government domain names.  GSA's registration service can be found at http://www.nic.gov/ .  In Utah, we are recommending for consistency and easy recognition that local governments register through utah.gov with the format "provo.utah.gov" or utahcounty.utah.gov".  Al Sherwood is the registrar for the Utah.gov domain. 2:49:24 PM    comment []
