[Alac-sc-outreach] At-Large Blog

[Dev Anand Teelucksingh]

Thanks Remmy. There are a lot of new gTLDs out there so there’s an
opportunity for a shorter memorable domain name than say
atlargeblog.icann.org (or worse blog.atlarge.icann.org).

As to sustainability, I’m thinking it will managed by both community and
staff for content.
