Hello, future world!

Here is my faithful view on address/ID terminology.

Term: locator
Definition: name of the topological location of a node
Analog: unicast address
Synonym: address

Term: identifier
Definition: name of the network identification of a node
Analog: host identifier

Term: brand
Definition: name of the identification of a service type
Analog: well known port, anycast address

Term: breed
Definition: name of the identification of a session kind
Analog: multicast address

So, I am voting Against in Consensus Check.

Toni
