There isn’t really a single entity named ‘Ruby on Rails’. There’s the  
core time, the activism team, legions of contributors etc. If we knew  
why you wanted to contact this entity, people might be able to point  
you in the right direction.

Hello,

What kind of help do you want as far as ROR is concerned. There are  
plenty  
of people out here who are actually an authority in ROR.

that’s not the rails website. that’s the “congratulations you’ve  
managed to install rails on this machine” website.

Thanks for the comments. There is a URL - [definitivesports.com](http://definitivesports.com)  
pointing at the RoR site. I want to know who owns this as my company,  
definitive, want to buy the URL. Can you help or point me in the right  
direction? I don’t see the relevance to definitive sports as to what  
RoR does…

Thank you

Pip

Hello Pip,

From what you have written, you mean to say that you want to buy the  
domain  
[definitivesports.com](http://definitivesports.com) . The domain or the url has to do nothing with Ruby  
On  
Rails. The present owner has installed RoR and has deployed his  
application  
using this domain or URL.

To contact the owner of this domain, you need to look up in [whois.net](http://whois.net)  
and  
find who is the owner of [definitivesports.com](http://definitivesports.com) . For your convenience , I  
have pulled up the data for you and the domain is registered through  
Godaddyn. The domain is a private registration hence, you need to write  
to  
Godaddy to get hold of the owner. For more info please visit these  
links. I  
hope this helps.

[http://whois.net/whois/definitivesports.com](http://whois.net/whois/definitivesports.com)

[http://who.godaddy.com/WhoIs.aspx?domain=definitivesports.com&prog\_id=godaddy](http://who.godaddy.com/WhoIs.aspx?domain=definitivesports.com&prog_id=godaddy)

Let me know if this was helpful to you.
