Currently, section "Design" looks like this:

  • Design
    • What is a namespace?
    • Why is there a separate name_new step?
    • How are names represented?
    • What if I spend that special coin by mistake?
    • Does Namecoin support “layer 2” technologies?
    • Why focus on getting browsers and OS’s to support Namecoin instead of getting ISP’s or public DNS resolvers (e.g. Google DNS) to do so?
    • Why focus on browser add-ons and OS packages instead of native browser and OS support?
    • Why focus on getting existing browsers and OS’s to support Namecoin instead of forking those browsers and OS’s?
    • Is Namecoin’s support of atomic name trades a feature primarily aimed at squatters?

This includes two (to me) disparate parts:

  1. Why is Namecoin technologically designed in this or that way?
  2. Why is the Namecoin community run in this or that way?

It seems like it'd make more sense to move the "why focus on..." questions to a new section called "Project", that would be about "philosophical" matters. It could also address questions like "why no trademark deletions" etc.
