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?

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, REC and ENC. 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.
