:lsblakk - can you explain in more detail where are you're asking this subdomain to be pointed to?

Hi Chris,

We're in a work week and will determine the final path, but will be trying to set up a paas site with some automated blog posts.  Mostly filing this bug to 'reserve' the namespace - would it help to as for it to point to http://relman-blog.paas.allizom.org/ so that we can create something there later this week and see it populated?

Alright - we have a blog up on the mozilla github, at http://mozilla.github.io/release-blog/index.html

To resolve it to release.mozilla.org we can either just do a forward from that domain to http://mozilla.github.io/release-blog/index.html  OR  it's possible to put a CNAME in the repo pointing to release.mozilla.org and then we just have to add A records to the release.mozilla.org domain which point to the following:


    192.30.252.153
    192.30.252.154

Is there a preference?

Generally speaking, for something like this, it's simpler to just point at the GitHub
IPs.

However, releases.mozilla.org is an already used domain name, pointing at ftp.mozilla.org via our CDN, so you'd
have to pick a different domain name for this.

Oy, my bad on the domain name without a 's'.

Change to DNS made, just wait for it to propagate and you are set to go.
