That's one for dbrn...

That's certainly the guideline.  On the other hand, if common usage in
Michigan and Dearborn is different, then we are certainly in a position
to not follow it.

>2.  How about putting the site on mi.org?

That would eliminate the question of city. However, the main point of
mi.org, as I see it, is to increase our local control of the host
registration process.  Since my question arises from the us-domain
people wanting to know how we'd like this city registered, it doesn't
make too much sense to jump ship.
