I guess teh silence on the list could be due to the large amount of
discussion about URL's and URN's here in Amsterdam.

Every DNS type person here I've spoken to thinks this would be a bad
idea since the DNS needs to be optimised and really fast for what it
does, adding two orders of magnitude mor information to it might not
break it, but it would hardly then be optimised for turning FQDN's to IP
addresses.
