I agree with Luke-Jr.  We need to try to find a decentralized solution if we are going to implement BIP 15.  Bitcoin needs to remain decentralized in every aspect of the protocol or we lose its greatest strength.

I feel like the HTTPS idea would be a great idea for a client feature, but not really something that should be added to the protocol.

I wrote this pre-draft:


https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/BIP_0015

It's merely a starter for discussions.

Aliases are a way to lookup bitcoin addresses so I can type genjix@genjix.net instead of 1jkddsjdskjwnk2j3kj232kjdkj
