I think content centric networking is very interesting, but my original comment was in the context of TCP/IP as it exists today. My gut says that real solutions to DDOS problems are going to have to come from new approaches to networking in general and not just tweaks to TCP/IP or throwing massive amounts of infrastructure at the problem.

I think we fundamentally agree. But I would point out a subtle distinction: I believe TCP/IP and DNS provide an adequate building block for what needs to happen in a backwards-compatible progressive enhancement way. I distinguish this from IPv6 which - because of how we chose to implement it - has created a ton of chicken-egg issues with the incentives for adoption.
