There was a small project a while back at the start of the domain seizures where a few people tried to develop a .p2p domain that relied on, you guessed it, peer to peer distribution of DNS records, effectively making it impossible to seize domains. I don't really know where it went, but considering I've never heard of them again I'd say the project's dead.

We know this will cause much argument within the community, but we have made the decision that we believe will be best for the continued development of this project. That, being against the whole point of it, probably killed it.
