Abstract:
This is an IESG Approval document requesting the reservation of six
Top-Level Domains for special use, in conformance with the
registration procedure defined in RFC 6761, section 4.
Peer-to-Peer systems use specific decentralized mechanisms to
allocate, register, manage, and resolve names. Those mechanisms
operate entirely outside of DNS, independently from the DNS root and
delegation tree. In order to avoid interoperability issues with DNS
as well as to address security and privacy concerns, this document
describes six pseudo Top-Level Domain names (pTLDs), reserved for
special use.
The following six domains relate to security-focused peer-to-peer
systems. They are: ".gnu", ".zkey", ".onion", ".exit", ".i2p", and
".bit".
