Which fails to solve the problem of being able to interoperate with normal people on normal email servers.

DANE is dead. Nothing supports it, and there are no meaningful plans for that to change. Given that DNSSEC is still often dependent on RSA-1024 for security, it's not clear that DANE would even provide an adequate level of security.

This is a bizarre assertion, given that Handshake is selling access to what are effectively TLDs, not domain names. A more believable explanation is simply that Handshake was attempting to avoid selling trademarked names associated with companies that would object to this.
- NetOpWibby 6y agoWith Handshake, TLDs can be used as domain names. "believable explanation" is subjective. I don't work for Namebase and am not involved in Handshake development. I just like the project. (: We're still in the early days so your complaints may be met with solutions.
