Comment (by goose):

 I have to say that i disagree with every single point you just made. If
 someone offers to pay for a torproject tld and even offers DNS control to
 the project then it should not be rejected. It is also not confusing at
 all if the domain name is integrated into the project's DNS. Everybody
 ends up at torproject.org, so what is the confusion all about ? In fact
 those domains make sure that people end up at the right place.

 Regarding the "not being renewd/squatting" point, i have to say that
 torproject.fr is working fine for a number of years right now and i just
 thought well i don't mind spending a few more bucks for .be. Somehow my
 domains are always paid for. It may be that other people don't take care
 of their domains however i am not one of "them". By far the worst argument
 was well we don't want those domains and if we don't like what we see we
 just send in the lawyers. That is just arrogant, ungreatful, expensive and
 unnecessary at least when it comes to the domains i'm responsible for.
