I wouldn't even use "liberated" ... I'd simply say "implemented." .local is a good example of something that went very wrong in the IETF. The debate seemed to hinge on religious principles like universality and ignored pretty basic things like "do you have code that works?" and "would it really hurt other things if we did this?" This is all theoretical anyway: there is a huge installed base of people who use .local and the development of rendezvous-aware applications like SubEthaEdit are some of the more exciting apps I've run across lately. The fact that the mechanisms used aren't documented in the RFC series is our loss ...
