4c5f65dfb8 s/foobardomain/foobar/ 
Example domain names that are used inline should be kept as short as
possible.  Domain names can not be broken up with hyphenation at
syllable boundaries for obvious reasons, and using 12 unbreakable
characters is bound to cause an hbox overflow when creating justified
output with TeX (the print backend).
