[ NNSquad ] Announcing Project IDONS: Internet Distributed Open Name System

[Marc Perkel]

I agree. In fact the current DNS system was developed at a time when
things were simpler than they are now. I'm wondering if a superior
system could be developed that actually works better and would attract
adoption. I'm of the mindset that impossible=challenge and just because
some have tried and failed doesn't mean to stop trying.
