atoulme opened a new issue #59: DNS discovery
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-tuweni/issues/59
 
 
   [EIP-1459](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-1459) introduces a novel way 
to store information about records in a cryptographically verified tree of 
records as TXT DNS records, to be hosted under one or more domains.
   
   
   
   Motivation
   DNS is the most performant distributed system in the world. Right now, p2p 
systems use direct UDP connections to transmit metadata information to perform 
discovery.
   
   By relying on DNS, the systems become more reliable, less open to eclipse 
attacks. This requires trusting the authority which updated the DNS record, and 
to know which DNS record to look up for. This can be considered an acceptable 
tradeoff.
   
   Scope of work
   Implement reading the ENRs from a DNS record.
   
   Implement keeping up to date with DNS to update when the tree is modified.
   
   Implement writing a set of DNS TXT records according to the logic.
