I looked at this site looking for references to "Dot-P2P" or "P2P-DNS", and I did the same in reverse on http://p2pdns.baywords.com/ and http://dot-p2p.org/ but I didn't find anything. However, the quasi-simultaneous appearance of two projects aiming at the same thing (distributed DNS without registrars) is surprising if there's no link.

(Coincidentally, I have recently posted my ramblings on the same subject http://roland.entierement.nu/blog/2010/10/02/for-a-truly-... -- but no code or formal design has been done.)

As well as the DNS woes Wikileaks has been experiencing recently.
