.oss

The mission of the .oss gTLD is to provide a trusted, purpose-driven namespace for the global open source software ecosystem. The .oss registry will serve developers, maintainers, projects, foundations, companies, users, educators, and other participants who create, distribute, support, document, or rely on open source software. The purpose of .oss is to make open source software resources easier to identify, discover, and trust online. Domains under .oss are intended to support legitimate open source projects and related ecosystem activities, including project websites, documentation, package distribution, community forums, security advisories, contributor resources, events, education, and organizational communications. By creating a clear and recognizable namespace for open source software, .oss will help reduce ambiguity for Internet users seeking authentic project information and will support the continued growth, collaboration, and sustainability of the open source ecosystem. The .oss gTLD is intended to operate in a manner consistent with the values of openness, transparency, interoperability, security, and responsible stewardship.
