message: This domain sets a precedent which could lead to a flood of claims for domain names for all manner of proposed states, secessionist regions, micronations, autonomous zones and disputed territories. If Catalonia gets its own domain then why not Kurdistan, Transnistria, Chechnya, Euskadi (Basque), Puerto Rico or Sealand —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 87.113.64.28 (talk • contribs) 21:27, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

message: From the Catalan article:
"In September 2005, the .cat TLD, the first Internet language-based top-level domain, was approved... "
So this means, that this was the first tld that is assigned to a language but not a country? I didn't find the sources of the statement in my short search, but if true, would be nice to include here. Anyone knows? Hoemaco (talk) 07:08, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

message: Perhaps there should be a small section on Nyan.cat? It uses the .cat domain and is available in Catalan, which means it complies with the restrictions set out. The content on the webpage is a 8-bit GIF of the "pop-tart cat" meme, which is quite popular on the internet.

message: I think the phrase
Before .cat was available, and given the reluctance of certain Catalan institutions, companies and people to use .es, .ad, .fr, .it domains (depending on the state respectively) for their domains, alternatives emerged.
should not include .ad. I never thought of Andorra as a sort of oppressing state or so for we Catalans.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.50.221.168 (talk) 10:01, 17 December 2011 (UTC)
