Question is what happens where there are two hosts in different 'address
books' that someone uses, which good.fucker is the right one in this
case? For a group of friends that are into crypto, the chances of
someone having www.crypto. would be increased.. Who's the real McCoy?

As for software, what about rsynching/RCS/SCCS'ing a hosts file somewhere
between trusted people?
