Completely agree!
This is constructive position, with positive outcome!

About peering, I see two possible technical architectures:

1. Easy to implements - pure rerquest forwarding:
We run EmerCoin wallet with activated DNS-servers on pair of 
public-available Internet-servers.
Your DNS-servers forwards requests for our TLD-zones (*.coin|*.emc) to 
our servers, and receive answers.
In this case, your servers will be run just as "caching proxy DNS".

Constrains of this solution - our servers could be attacked, or network 
traffic could be alerted.
So, this is not 100% insecure solution.
Also, there is added latency for forward request from your server to our 
DNS-server.

Pros of this solution: easy configure on your side, and do not needed 
upgrade wallet, if we release a new version,
with another DNS-behaviour. All upgrade will be performed exclusively on 
our side.


2. Each your server runs copy of EMC-wallet. Requests to our TLD-zones 
(*.coin|*.emc) your server forwards
to localhost, and local wallet resolves DNS-request. Also, this wallet 
can work together with emcssh program, to
support distributed ssh-PKI for your sysadmin groups.

Pros of this solution:
 - 100% secure and trustful answer. No way to intercept/alter/block 
data exchange to localhost.
 - No latency, because each request resolved locally, on localhost.
 - possibility to run EMCSSH PKI for management public key access to 
your servers (it will interact with local wallet).
 - possibility to store in the NVS somr your shared data, with 
autosynchronization.

Consts:
 - On each server: consumed ~1Gb disk space for blockchain, and ~80Mb 
ram for running instance of emercoin wallet.
 - If we release new version with patch in DNS-part - need to upgrade 
wallet program on each your server.


Of course, we can start work from architecture [1], and thereafter 
migrate to [2].
Or, you can propose something 3rd.

Very good!
We open to any constructive interactions and common projects, and happy 
to see you here!
So, if you have idea or plans for future collaboration, we will be glad 
to discuss and cooperate.
In short words: You're welcome!

You can contact directly to me, or write to group address team AT emercoin.com

Thanks,
Oleg
