- blogimus 18y agoBugbear.com is also not a commercial site, it is a guy's personal web presence. I would think that this would be a factor in the value of the bugbear.net name, especially for something homebrew or community oriented. If he ever did sell to a corporate body then, of course, that would change the dynamics. Edit: I just noticed a sibling thread talking about bugbear.com being PG's site. Just random luck on my part. Bugbear just came to mind as a defect tracking product name.

- xirium 18y agoThat would explain why bugbear's profile ( http://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=bugbear http://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=bugbear ) says "Okay just had to see if I could register it :-) Feel free to delete/lock/change pw."
