I am very enthusiastic from  the idea of  "zeroconf

http://dns-sd.org/ )

I haven't looked in detail into Wide-Area Bonjour, but it seems to me
that it's just dynamic DNS updates with DNSSEC to announce services
outside of LANs where multicast is used for service discovery.

hi Christian, all

WAB , whitch means wide area bonjour uses a modified bind dns server todo the job

This is not the problem I was talking about. If you talk about
decentralised systems, it's often mentioned that regardless what want
to do if you rely on DNS the system becomes centralised again. That's
somewhat true, because DNS is hierachically organised with some
central control. So one could think about how to decentralise DNS.

There have been proposals (and I'm probably not aware of all of them),
but it seems to me none of them can provide the quality of service
as the current DNS does. Given that you established a consistent,
global and anonymous DNS (that's technically not unbelivable), it's
still questionable who owns and eligable to register certain DNS
names. Even with the current system this is a problem and registries
have developed policies for this, but still there are disputes which
sometimes end in a court.

Every instance running its own DNS and share the keys with trusted partys
you should go a bit in deepth with the link i proposed.

Another approach http://dot-p2p.org/



I think the FreedomBox Project is primarily not about making all data
transmission self-organising, completely anonymous and decentralised
(which has been proposed here by some),


But It is exactly about that !!



but merely about giving everybody as personal server which stores their data instead of cloud computing company in datacenter somewhere where you don't have complete control.


What would be the progress ? we have that  since centuries allready ?


And when running your personal server at home means to that you
have to manage DNS records, then we can't do something about it and
freedom doesn't come without efforts.


so ? Whats your conclusion ?


cheers

P.S. apple use this technologie called " mobile me " http://me.com private DNS as a payed service for xx $ per year
