I still see no community interest in a block chain that is :

1. Merge mined
2. Has 5, maybe 10, squatters of all popular/usable domain names
3. Just lack of participation from the community. The forum looks dead as trash.

Thank you for your support.

I don't support the project. I consider it dead or on life support.

I don't support the project. I consider it dead or on life support.
I know, and maybe that's why you criticize it (yes, I'm naive, some other people would say you missed the early adopter period and can't do speculation now with merged mining).
But it is not dead and slowly acquiring new features.

We lack a lot of things to become more popular :
- guys who know how to make buzz, communication (I'm far from good at this, any volunteer ?)
- a software ready for end users (GUI, installer, etc)
- speaking about the project where is it useful (no, domain names are not the only goal)

It's not because there is not as much people as in bitcoin that the project is dead.
If everybody think like that, people wouldn't start new things, take part in the project and would be discouraged by people like you.

What will arrive next is :
- a support for tor domains
- an integrated web search engine for namespaces
- NamecoinBundle with namecoin+nmcontrol

So, people, come and test Namecoin !

Quite possibly if your only interest in decentralized DNS is as a speculative thing to see if you can make a buck on a name you don't even want, the project is 'dead'.

For the rest of us, who support Namecoin because it takes control of our Internet services in the same way that Bitcoin takes control of our money, it's alive and well.

Khal it isn't criticism if it is truth. One who takes truth as criticism is blinded by their own victim-mentality.

Anyone who is trying to setup a domain name (of any usefulness) will likely fail unless they pay the "early adopters" handsomely for them to move their fat ass from squatting and taking a huge dump on the good domain names. Most of the good ones were taken well over a year ago (I know I looked). Now it costs less than nothing for domain squatters to keep them indefinitely for pennies on the renewal.

So much for DECENTRALIZATION when all the domains are centralized between a few people. Good fucking job.

Smoothie, what counts as a good domain name?

A username?
[luceo@zorua ~]$ namecoind name_show d/smoothie
error: {"code":-4,"message":"failed to read from name DB"}

Oh right, not taken...

How about something closer to home?
[luceo@zorua ~]$ namecoind name_show d/getrich
error: {"code":-4,"message":"failed to read from name DB"}
[luceo@zorua ~]$ namecoind name_show d/altcoins
error: {"code":-4,"message":"failed to read from name DB"}
[luceo@zorua ~]$ namecoind name_show d/speculate
error: {"code":-4,"message":"failed to read from name DB"}

Those aren't taken either...

Common *coin terms?
[luceo@zorua ~]$ namecoind name_show d/confirmation
error: {"code":-4,"message":"failed to read from name DB"}
[luceo@zorua ~]$ namecoind name_show d/genesisblock
error: {"code":-4,"message":"failed to read from name DB"}
[luceo@zorua ~]$ namecoind name_show d/51percent
error: {"code":-4,"message":"failed to read from name DB"}
[luceo@zorua ~]$ namecoind name_show d/doublespend
error: {"code":-4,"message":"failed to read from name DB"}

And still some there too... bet most of the above .coms are taken.

And if you want to use .bit as a DNS service for a business, you've got a lot of options open to you, since your business name is unlikely to be a common term. The only people who would end up handing over fees are those who run existing Bitcoin businesses and failed to adopt Namecoin early.

In exactly the same way that early adopters are rewarded in Litecoin and Bitcoin, they are rewarded in Namecoin. Abundance cannot exist forever. Would you rather have centralization or domain squatters?

Some updates for NMControl :

- added a http service
- added a http plugin to make a future GUI, available at http://127.0.0.2/ (a simple page for now)
* allow any number of sub plugins : first one is GuiHttpConfig, a simple page at http://127.0.0.2/config to be able configure NMControl from a web browser.

Suppose I want to be able to resolve .bit domains, without using any external service.

Installing namecoind and NMControl together will accomplish this, right?

Correct. You can also use the FreeSpeechMe Firefox plugin to also get Namecoin TLS and Tor/.onion clear name support.

For what it's worth, I think namecoin is the only altcoin worth owning. You where just a bit early with it, people are not ready yet.
