While it doesn't appear to be malicious (I got a redirect to here), it also doesn't have the same WHOIS information as the official website. I guess that means it is probably owned by a nice person helping us when we fumble keystrokes, but as it has the potential to become less benign in future, the official domain should remain the preferred option for access.


So bizarre that someone would register a domain just to redirect to the official site, without some nefarious longer-term goals.
