Secure anonymous voting with centralized identification entity: Entity hands out voting tokens (names) to verified IDs. Users do a couple rounds of coinjoin with the voting tokens whenever they feel like it. Vote through the token. Repeat for the next vote.

Well done domob, the vision becomes reality ... might be sending a tip to id/domob now it is so easy 
Thanks, I'm glad you (and others) like it! 
Would there be any way of permitting access to fields? Ex: The ID and website address are accessible to anyone but other fields are only accessible by consent, someone has to have your permission via their own ID to view your email, phone number, etc. I was thinking something along the lines of levels of permission but entry by entry would probably be more versatile.
I can see some applications for this, but in principle, everything you have in the blockchain is public. So the only way to achieve what you are asking about is to encrypt certain fields, and share the keys with selected people - or something along these lines. One could probably work out the details, but so far, noone has stated interest in something like that. Feel free to share any ideas you have, though.

Saw this in Bitcoin discussion seems interesting enough to post here since its a Trendmicro paper analyzing the namecoin project
Bitcoin Domains
http://www.trendmicro.com.au/cloud-content/us/pdfs/security-intelligence/white-papers/wp-bitcoin-domains.pdf
"This paper will attempt to explain what ADR TLDs are and describe the current scope of .bit domains, enumerate .bit domains’ weaknesses, and present a case study of a .bit Trojan and prospective malicious uses of .bit domains."
I'm curious about the botnet that is operating in the namecoin system and was wondering if you guys had any idea on that part of the paper and how it would be avoided.
The Trend Micro™ Smart Protection Network™, a cloud security infrastructure that rapidly and accurately identifies new threats and delivers global threat intelligence to secure data wherever it resides, detected a botnet that operates with .bit domains
I believe this is Circa 2013 based on Last access November 12, 2013 on the citations so if I missed the discussion feel free to correct or direct me to it.

Well done domob, the vision becomes reality ... might be sending a tip to id/domob now it is so easy
Thanks, I'm glad you (and others) like it! What is the spec of this, does it parse full JSONs, etc?
As an example, here is one of the first id namespaces, my id/deepceleron with a signed message:
{"info": "1DCeLERonUTsTERdpUNqxKTVMmnwU6reu5", "cert": {"address": "1DCeLERonUTsTERdpUNqxKTVMmnwU6reu5", "id": "deepceleron", "info": "deepceleron CA", "authority": "deepceleron", "authbtc": "1DCeLERonUTsTERdpUNqxKTVMmnwU6reu5", "authnmc": "N76D6hEHB55cGPk8QiG6ysgMbXb11b3nAH"}, "sig": "GweBRP+1YnKIMmXuwtsk4zlR7jUuPZxiazfNUbheGRMkomMs4lo/XpNpCDVLujrEynCGYe9dxs/M9nOp98EsXpI="}
As you can see, "info" is a Bitcoin address, and other stuff is inside a "cert", and that cert message is signed by the Bitcoin address.

Who are devs of Namecoin?
that's a moving target ... there are few of us, some come and go too. Some disappear forever

Domob's latest trick:
Merged on git, will be included in the next release.
Note this just looks up the address holding the name so there is still room for privacy improvements, e.g. stealth addresses or something. But for public addresses like donation addresses it's pretty cool.

Oh shit noice!!! Now we just need Bitcoin Core to integrate it too, then namecoin, bitcoin, and bitmessage can call be used without addresses, but with a single namecoin id.

I have restarted the client it still is stuck on 56 weeks? Wasn't trying to spam, I just include it as a signature, besides we do accept namecoin for products so it seemed appropriate. But I understand and thank you for the help

what is the last few lines in your debug.log?
how many connections do you have? (help/debug)
For some reason today it just went thru, after 4 days of trying....hmm strange? Now if your mining with eligius and put in merge mining, i guess you only get paid on payout times correct? Is there an area to see what namecoin amount you have?

My namecoin wallet is stuck at 56 weeks for syncing, this is the first namecoin wallet I've downloaded. Any suggestions?
