<h1>Example Domains</h1>
<p>As described in <a href="/go/rfc2606">RFC 2606</a>,
we maintain a number of domains such as EXAMPLE.COM and EXAMPLE.ORG
for documentation purposes. These domains may be used as illustrative
examples in documents without prior coordination with us. They are
not available for registration.</p>
