I'm building a catalog for the Internet, with an XXX.XXX.XXX (INF.REF.ENC) categorization system. And would like to make submitting a site as straightforward as possible. For legal reasons (writing bad descriptions could cost views), we're completely opt-in.

The entire database will be licensed under CC-BY-SA, and hosted over IPFS.

Are these instructions clear, or do they need to be redrafted?

Two things that comes into my mind:

• The meaning of INF, REF, and ENC are not clear. The INF section has been used for both topic and country code.
• In "USA.KTY.BGN", shouldn't it say USA.XXX.XXX instead to make it clearer?

What country code uses INF?

I was hoping to demonstrate a particular city with that reference.

Oh right, the KTY part is also part of the region. By INF I meant what you said above in the post (XXX.XXX.XXX (INF.REC.ENC)), which makes it look like each part corresponds to something called INF. I didn't realise that it was supposed to be an example.

Gotcha.

Also, I'm now wondering if it would be appropriate to have a network of distributed servers, each dedicated to a particular country. Would provide a lot more breathing room.

I was also confused by this. If it was an example it should say that.

Edit: in fact the examples should also be explained. It wasn't immediately clear to me what city example they were using.

What if my site fits multiple, non overlapping call locations from the open catalogue system?

Do I add it multiple times?
