Hey, programming language creators ...

The idea

Currently, there is a pattern of appending [-]lang to websites related to `languages`. A few examples are rust-lang.org or ponylang.io and it is probably simply because we lack a .lang domain ending.

I posted on r/ICANN about it.

I honestly didn't know how these things worked. It happens to be really slow and costly (hundred thousands of dollars)…

So pony.lang, 8th.lang, etc.
