NGI Zero Entrust: "GNS to DNS Migration and Zone Management"

+

+ We are happy to announce that we have successfully aquired funding for further + GNS development and polishing! +

+

+The GNU Name System specification is in its final stages. +Migration paths and large-scale testing as well as generating interest in running GNS zones and registrars is the next logical step. +Hence, this project aims to +

    +
  1. Facilitate the management of GNS zones by administrators.
    2. +
  2. Provide users with means to resolve real-world names by (partially) mirroring the DNS root zone.
    3. +
+

+

+Ad 1.: To ease adoption, a framework for GNS registrars will be developed for zone management. +The registrar framework will allow GNS zone administrators to provide +a web-interface for subdomain registration by other users. +The services may also be provided for a fee similar to how DNS domain registrars +operate to cover running costs. +The framework is envisioned to support integration of privacy-friendly payments with GNU Taler. +

+

+Ad 2.:We are already hosting and shipping a zone for gnunet.org as part of our GNS implementation. +To demonstrate how existing DNS registrars could migrate zones from DNS to GNS +we plan to run multiple GNS zones ourselves which contain the zone information from real-world DNS top-level domains. +This will also show how GNS can be used to secure the existing DNS namespace from +censorship and outages when used in parallel. +A selection of existing top-level domains for which open data exists will be hosted and served through GNS in order to facilitate the daily use of the name system. +We are are planning to integrate at least three DNS zones and publish them +through GNS for users to resolve in a default GNUnet installation. +

+

+ Watch this space and the mailing list for updates! +

+

+ This work is generously funded by NLnet as part of their NGI Zero Entrust Programme. +
