No, I do not want anything, I was just kidding.

Actually, if Stephan Szarafinski wants to offer the domain, I think the
project can but benefit from it. However if nobody cares to register the
name, then I don't feel the need to have someone doing so.
I believe it is a matter of thrust that I sense in your original mail.
I don't mind a non core member to have 'domain responsibilty' as long as
we can be sure that he isn't going to build some XXX-site later on using
'our brandname'
