First, thanks for your work on IPFS.
I've been trying to get into IPFS recently. One thing I can't wrap my head around is that IPNS only seems to persist for about 12 hours and then stops working.
It seems to defeat the purpose of a truely distributed name system, as my computer that needs to keep republishing the name becomes a critical part of the system?
Am I missing something or are there plans to resolve this in the future?
