Why is MOREnet involved in the domain name registration process?
A. MOREnet has been delegated responsibility of many .mo.us subdomains by the administrator(s) of the .us top-level domain. These include cc.mo.us, k12.mo.us, lib.mo.us and tec.mo.us, to name a few. Many of MOREnet’s customers can register domain names within these subdomains, including community colleges, K-12 schools, libraries and technical/vocational school. As a delegate, MOREnet is responsible for ensuring that new domain names follow the conventions identified in RFC 1480 and RFC 1591. When a customer requests domain name registration through MOREnet, MOREnet reviews the request and ensures that the domain name follows standard Internet conventions before the request is submitted to a domain registration authority.
