[CS-FSLUG] Decentralized DNS

[Ed Hurst]

I've been running across stories about DNS from different angles. The
business about China and their root servers and propagating their
blocklists, and Secure DNS, and signed certificates and keys, and now we
get this story about how the torrent folks are trying to bounce back
from the domain name take downs:

I admit I barely get what DNS is all about. What can you folks tell me
about decentralized DNS schemes such as the one which keys in on
unofficial TLDs?
