the concerns in my mind divide up into politics and technology. The politics response is really simple: "this idea is doomed." -I wish I felt otherwise, but I think given the context of the debate over ICANN, who 'owns' names, $180,000 application fees, IAB directions to IANA, NTIA role, this is mired. I don't want to be a prophet of doom, but this is my honest perspecive. Reality is a harsh blowgun which occasionally fires of beautiful butterflies.
Technology wise, this is short, and simple and clear. Would we had this before .onion eventuated, and dare I say it even .local from another time and place. WIring a TLD to be used for alternate namespaces so that we can safely anchor non-DNS names into the DNS and avoid repetitious stupidity is a good plan. Would it be DNSSEC signed with a well known key? I like the draft. I felt I could understand it, which is always a huge win for me. _G On Thu, Feb 12, 2015 at 4:36 PM, Andrew Sullivan <a...@anvilwalrusden.com> wrote: > Hi all, > > Warren and I have prepared draft-wkumari-dnsop-alt-tld-04.
