Fwd: [ssac] Tor Project seeking input on future of .onion naming
by Andrew McConachie June 27, 2023

June 27, 2023

Dear SSAC Members, The Tor Project sought comment on proposals to change their naming system back in 2017. I’ve been revisiting this again for this work party and seeing where things landed. It became known as Proposal 279 and is now incorporated into their annual, The Onion Plan. If you want to quickly get up to speed on interesting naming issues in the Tor Universe I suggest reading the Proposal 279 Appendix in 2022’s The Onion Plan. Many interesting naming rabbit holes to dive into on this page. <https://tpo.pages.torproject.net/onion-services/onionplan/appendixes/prop27…> Thanks, Andrew > Begin forwarded message: > > From: Andrew Mcconachie <andrew.mcconachie(a)icann.org> > Subject: [ssac] Tor Project seeking input on future of .onion naming > Date: 6 April 2017 at 18:27:55 CEST > To: SSAC <SSAC(a)icann.org> > > Dear SSAC Members, > > Forwarding this as it is relevant to SAC090, and thought some SSAC members may be interested in it.

Draft Research on Blockchain Naming
by Andrew McConachie June 23, 2023

June 23, 2023

Dear SSAC Members, As I mentioned at ICANN 77, ICANN OCTO has contracted with Nicholas Weaver at the International Computer Science Institute (ICSI) to investigate how some blockchain naming systems work. Below are the links to his initial work which he has given me permission to share. This is a work in progress and there is at least one more document on GNS that is being developed. Please do not share these outside of SSAC.

2023 ICANN DNS Symposium
by Andrew McConachie June 17, 2023

June 17, 2023

<https://www.icann.org/en/announcements/details/2023-icann-dns-symposium-to-…> > This year, ICANN will invite speakers to present on the integration and security of the Domain Name System (DNS) with emerging technologies, exploring the challenges and opportunities that this integration presents. The symposium invites researchers, developers, and operators to present on subjects including, but not limited to, blockchains, Internet of Things, and novel uses of the DNS, such as IP-to-location translation and blocklists. Looks relevant to this work party. —Andrew
