Using DNS for locating 0mq services would be very cool. Martin, I don't know if you're aware but DNS can store many record types, so we could invent a format for 0mq service records and then implement something like dns://service.example.com for lookup which would grab the appropriate record and decode that into a proper transport://endpoint.

Something to discuss on the dev list...

why not use one of the existing resource/service record definitions?
