What are your thoughts about #Handshake? It seems much more active than Namecoin and has made many improvements to resolving (SPV Nodes) and bidding on names.
I'm still working on packaging a relay for Fedora. But I have long experience with DNS. There need to be relays hosted on non-icann TLDs. My blue sky vision is for many nostriches to run recursive DNS resolvers with custom root zone featuring many of these private TLDs. This is something private companies and extended families should do, but probably incomprehensible to normies at present.
A more immediate step is to apply for a NOSTR TLD at opennic.org. Must have a constitution setting out the rules to register a domain and tier 1 servers meeting their QA requirements. The application is voted on by existing TLDs. It is easy for normies to use opennic for their DNS. https://www.opennic.org/
Namecoin is an excellent way to register TLDs in a globally consistent namespace, and is in excellent harmony with the Bitcoin vibe. Not very accessible to normies (but they are working on it). https://www.namecoin.org/
