Trying to get a new site provision with an url like "drupal.local" is not possible due to the validation on the title/url. I don't see what the reason behind this restriction would be.

This patch removes the validation.

There needs to be some form of validation to make sure the user creates valid urls =\

Agreed, *some* sort of validation is necessary. We probably need to look in an RFC or something.

I do think that the current restrictions are too restrictive, however.

This is the CFG from RFC1035:

<domain> ::= <subdomain> | " "

<subdomain> ::= <label> | <subdomain> "." <label>

<label> ::= <letter> [ [ <ldh-str> ] <let-dig> ]

<ldh-str> ::= <let-dig-hyp> | <let-dig-hyp> <ldh-str>

<let-dig-hyp> ::= <let-dig> | "-"

<let-dig> ::= <letter> | <digit>

<letter> ::= any one of the 52 alphabetic characters A through Z in
upper case and a through z in lower case

<digit> ::= any one of the ten digits 0 through 9

I have committed a fairly naive implementation of that syntax in my latest commit, please review http://drupal.org/cvs?commit=146806

Inspired from your commit, here's a patch that does the same job (I think...) in a fewer words and also allows domains starting with digits. Although it doesn't appear to be part of the RFC 1035 preferred syntax, I think we should allow it.

I agree domains should be able to start with digits (if you can register it, it should be allowed).

committed it.
