TXT entry in DNS for proj.org

[jjimenezshaw]

Hi

Due to ​https://github.com/OSGeo/PROJ/issues/4182 we would like to register proj.org in the Google Search Console.

For that we need that this TXT entry is added to the DNS entries for proj.org

google-site-verification=MhCjgTBKAzLd1y46INE_vmHIiJ_TLHrDc98XC_jYB14

Could you add it?

Thank you. Javier.

Do you have any experience with Ansible ? This could have been as easy as filing a PR against the existing zone file ( see #3188 )

The proj.org record is a CNAME so the TXT record cannot be added: ​https://serverfault.com/questions/834320/adding-both-cname-and-txt-dns-records-for-one-subdomain

We'd need to turn proj.org into an A name or I guess your google site verification would need to be done at the readthedocs.io side

What would you prefer ?

Uhmmm, thanks @strk. I will talk with the PROJ people. Looks like we cannot use the DNS.

We got it using an html meta tag. Not as good as TXT, but enough. I think this ticket can be closed.
