> El domini .cat està dissenyat específicament per promoure la cultura i la llengua catalana a nivell global.

The domain .cat is designed specifically for the promotion of Catalan language and culture at a global level.

It's a shame that they are allowed to monopolize a domain extension like this. A more sensible approach would have been to have this requirement for .catalan instead of the generic .cat .

The rules are quite loose: as long as you make your content available in catalan, they'll be happy to have your site hosted in the TLD
