Given that Tor, GNUnet, I2P and NameCoin have all been developed outside of the IETF, I find the idea that IETF is *creating* the competition odd. The competition *exists*, and has in many cases existed for more than a decade. I'm rather sure none of them has a single RFC or WG draft describing any significant part of their protocols at this point, except mabye RFC 1984. So saying that IETF is *creating* the competition is a mischaracterization. What I keep suggesting is that at this time, the IETF should *document* the existence of said competition. Nobody proposed obsoleting DNS and standardizing GNS at this point ;-). We wrote them in support of RFC 2826, reading it as applicable to the domain name space and not just the DNS name space --- which is in my mind the only technically desirable interpretation).
