Is OK turtles a design, a vision of a design, or an actual product, an 
open source product or a closed source product?

If it is an actual thing, I should be able to get a human readable name, 
associate that name with a network address, and other people should be 
able to have secure communications between a name that they control, and 
a name that I control, and thus between themselves and me.

I don't see any way to do this now.  So I conclude that OK turtles is a 
vision of how a design should be implemented, a proposed way of squaring 
Zooko's triangle, not an actual product that squares Zooko's triangle.
