As we've been having this thread around TLDs, I noticed this item in Hacker News this morning of a new overlay network that is designed to use hashes of public keys for addressing:
https://github.com/zrm/snow https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9843373 http://trustiosity.com/snow/how-it-works.html The developer has decided for name resolution **within the overlay network** to use "<hash-of-public-key>.key". I see this as similar to what the Tor folks do with ".onion". I point this out only to show another instance of a developer seeking to use DNS-like names (and even DNS tools)... only outside the scope of the regular DNS system.
