Hello. I hope this message finds you well.

Following our recent discussions regarding inactive TLDs, I am formally
proposing to house the .o TLD. Over the past months, I have prepared the
necessary infrastructure and systems to manage the TLD.

About Me:
My name is Emre Çelik, known online as EMREOYUN. I am a Computer
Engineering graduate from TED University, Ankara, Türkiye. I worked in
the university's IT Department for three years and have nearly ten years
of experience operating servers for various purposes. While my formal
education is in software development, I am particularly passionate about
servers, networking, and IT systems.

Infrastructure Prepared:
Tier 1 DNS Server: u.emreoyun.tr (IP: 79.110.234.30), hosted by Batihost
Internet Services in Bursa, Türkiye. This server is fully operational
and ready to serve the .o TLD. It is currently registered as
ns7.opennic.glue as a Tier 1 server, waiting in the Approval state.
Autoregistration Website: https://dot-o.eo.gl/ (SSL support) and
http://dot.o when the TLD goes live, with features including:
* Account login and registration
* Domain lookup and registration with 1–4 nameservers
* Registration periods up to 1 year, with unlimited extensions for
expiring domains
* Ticketing system
* Security features, including 2FA, CAPTCHA, and session protection
* Some compatibility with older browsers

A copy of the planned charter for the .o TLD can be found at:
https://dl.emreoyun.tr/download/doto/charter.md?v

History and Motivation:
The .o TLD has been inactive due to non-responsive registration systems
and offline Tier 1 DNS servers (ns9 and ns11, operated by Jonah Aragon).
Previous attempts to register .o domains were unsuccessful, leaving a
gap in the OpenNIC TLD ecosystem. Recognizing the demand and the
opportunity to revitalize this TLD, I have volunteered to assume
operational responsibility and have prepared the required systems for a
smooth transition.

I am requesting the OpenNIC community to vote on transferring
operational responsibility of the .o TLD. If you have any concerns or
requirements that should be addressed before finalizing the transition,
please let me know.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to your
feedback and the upcoming vote.

Best regards,
Emre Çelik (EMREOYUN)
