DNSConvention

importer notes: This was mesh best current practice on the old wiki. Let the debate begin anew, or the WINNER IS...

DNS

Nodes that desire a DNS name should use host.suburb.state.country.wlan(?)
Options to consider

use host.suburb.state.country.wlan (although this requires a split DNS root, all hosts in mesh must use mesh DNS so that .wlan domain can be captured, other domains forwarded to ICANN root. Also, multiple hosts at one node will all have different unreltated names)
use host.node.suburb.state.country.wlan (starting to get unwieldy)
use delegation node.wireless.org.au, e.g. cia.wireless.org.au, and hosts fall within that, e.g. gw.cia.wireless.org.au (don't have the problems with split DNS root then...)
