I have created an additional BIP that is associated with the recent BIPs that I have sent to the mailing list. This one defines a decentralized naming protocol. The BIP can be found here: https://github.com/cgilliard/bips/blob/naming/bip-XXXX.mediawiki

Please reply with any feedback, questions, or comments.

Regards, Chris

Yeah, kinda, but without the alt and integrated into the other systems that I've proposed and it maps names to onion addresses instead of ips. It's needed for some of the applications I've been thinking about.
