Add evaluation of .bit.arpa to dev docs #353

@hlandau and/or @midnightmagic : any chance you could review this? |

Looks good to me. I can think of no other objections. As long as we persist in the overriding nature of personal lookups against a local namecoin node, I think it was nice of them to suggest a .bit.arpa and while not a true TLD, it does provide a significant reputational boost, which IMO won't hamper us from continuing to lobby for a true TLD (and then either a move or an addition or repurposing of .bit.arpa later on for some unforeseen but better purpose.) |

| We're seeking feedback on a proposal to use `.bit.arpa` as a special-use domain name for Namecoin. [Our current evaluation of the proposal is here.]({{site.baseurl}}docs/dev/bit-arpa/) We won't be doing anything in this department imminently, but we'd greatly appreciate community feedback -- please take some time to read our evaluation and let us know what you think. |

I think "imminently" is correct usage; am I incorrect on that?

More-correct to be "immediately" as per colloquial usage; "without intervening time period." There is an intervening time period, so action does not take place immediately. Imminence implies the action is, to some implied degree, inevitable. Imminence also has an amount of other baggage w.r.t natural disasters and so on. Not as apt.

This is on hold for a while; will come back to this later. Please do not merge without talking to me. |

If it's WIP, maybe mark as draft? |
