One example given in EIP-4804 is web3://vitalikblog.eth:5/. Does this example require the EIP in this post?

The resolving part will depend on this EIP. However, after discussing with EIP editors on EIP-4804, we agree to defer the detailed resolving part to another EIP (i.e., for ENS, EIP-6821).

Instead of web3 for the key name, what about something like contentscript or contentcontract to go with the already existing contenthash from ERC-1577?

Looks like a good idea. Let me check with others in the circle :slight_smile:

Thanks for the comment. After discussing with other community members, we agree to replace the web3 text record with contentcontract. The EIP is also updated accordingly. Pleaes check.
