And why would it come up as a page full of ads (mostly pretty scammy
looking ads, like fake Windows messageboxes and such) instead of a
Host Unknown error?!
Because the registrar for clojure.org chose to resolve lapsed domain
names to a page that it thinks could make it some money instead of
failing. If you look closely (assuming you can still get the page),
you're liable to find a "buy this domain" link somewhere on it.
That's pretty evil. Their behavior makes Clojure look unprofessional,
or even hacked, and is confusing to users trying to reach the page.
It's like going to your local mall and finding a big, neon-encrusted
casino or something in its stead, rather than either the mall or a
vacant lot.
Most domain registrars do that. What fix do you suggest to make
Clojure look more "professional"?

I think we have moved past the relevant portion of this conversation.
There was a mistake, it was corrected. We apologize for any
inconvenience this has caused. Since there is an answer to this thread
let's put it to rest and move on with more important matters.
