Distributed source control gives up global agreement about which particular
version of code is the "latest" and seems to do pretty well.

With a single history of the domain name registry under source control, and
a (ranked) list of trusted parties with various versions of the registry, it
should be possible to reconstruct the latest version of the domain registry.
