 * Hi
    I’m playing with the wordpress code and I would like to make a website to
   share my developments. My question is about my domain name, I have read that 
   using “wordpress” in the domain name like “wordpressfoobar.com” is not allowed.
   Is that true ? If yes, then is it allowed to use “wp” like “wpfoobar.com” ? Please
   let me know as I’m new her 🙂 Thank you CEd
