Hi, My reflections on this interesting discussion:
Software using names under *.alt (or whatever it will be) do not use DNS, by definition. Thus, there can never be a DNS name collision. It will be up to the alternate name resolution software, and its users, to deal with the name collision problem, until IETF decides to take on name management for this/these non-DNS name resolution systems. So, we dont have to solve this problem. I dont believe that a registry is required at all. If we do offer one, that registry should be for dual entries (name, name resolution mechanism) as (sex.alt, tor hidden service) and (sex.alt, GNUnet) are different things using different mechanisms, but the same label.
