The new top-level domain was reserved to official museums worldwide.[2][3] Upon the launch of the tld, the J. Paul Getty Trust was a member of MuseDoma's board.[4]
At the very beginning, the name Museum Domain Management Association was shortened to its initials, MDMA, until the management team was advised to change it since it was exactly the same initials as the homonymous drug (MDMA).[4]
