Wolf-Ulrich,

I have been tracking .onion in particular for awhile and will be happy to spin up on this, and be ready to keep members updated as necessary.


All the best,

Colleagues,

the IETF has recently published a Draft Problem Statement on "Special Use Domain Names".   

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dnsop-sutld-ps/?include_text=1

From the document summary:

This document presents a list, believed to be complete, of the
   problems associated with the assignment of special-use names.  

  Solutions to these problems are out of scope for this document. 

   No assertion is made that any of these problems is more or less
   important than any other.  ...  These problems should not appear to every
   reader to all be problems: we intend to cover any problem that any
   participant considers a problem, not just those problems that
   everyone agrees are problems.

   In addition, no assertion is made that all of these problems must be
   addressed, or that, if we think they should be addressed, the IETF is
   the organization with competence to address them.  While each problem
   has one or more solutions, the solutions may in some cases be
   mutually contradictory, or may come with costs that do not justify
   the benefit that would be obtained from solving them.

Our constituency should follow the work on this and discuss it at a time deemed necessary.

Best regards
Wolf-Ulrich
