I do favor "libre" over "liber" in the event .free domains have to migrate.

As Jonah mentioned in the other thread, it would be best for us to go
ahead and plan ahead for the worst. Based on the comments so far,
nobody wants to just drop our existing domains under .free, so we will
move forward with the assumption that we will either be ignoring the
new ICANN zone, or we will be transferring our domains to a new zone.

In the event that we migrate to a new TLD, lets start discussing what
we would like to use. So far "libre" (French) and "liber" (Latin)
have both been proposed. Libre is a more mainstream term and thus has
more of a potential to also be snagged up by ICANN in the future.
Does anyone else have suggestions they want to propose?

Going off of RFC3696, section 2, valid TLDs may contain standard
letters (A-Z), numbers (0-9), or hyphens (-). The TLD may NOT start
or end with a hyphen, nor may it be completely numeric. So as an
example, we could legally create a new TLD with the name .fr33. Please
keep these rules in mind when submitting your suggestions for a new
TLD.
