Thoughts on .onion

As part of the IETF standards process, the IESG recently approved
‘The .onion Special-Use Domain Name’ (draft-ietf-dnsop-onion-tld-01.txt)
as a Proposed Standard. I wanted to briefly summarize some 
points of the process to date, and share an outcome of the IESG’s 
discussion that suggests possible future IETF work.
