hi Bjarni

Ok, thats the centralised alternative, If we build our own Network
with a lets call it
" Freedombox Grid" We could use our own DNS and we are not dependent
on any other controlled DNS registry , so everybody could register a
http://whatever  adress to reach each freedombox.

If you take a close look you will see its build on apple bonjour
,zeroconfiguration, NAT-PmP
and could run on any mobile device.

this is another project with the same approach:

The MyNet Project is a collaboration between the Nokia Pervasive
Computing Group and the MIT UIA team (UIA=User Information
Architecture). It is clear that personal devices such as mobile
phones, digital music players, personal digital assistants, console
gaming systems, and digital cameras have become commonplace in the
lives of ordinary people. We believe that as these intelligent and
networking capable devices proliferate - security, ease of use and
peer-to-peer connectivity will become increasingly important.

I believe that DNS is the most important thing of the project !

just my 2 cents
