This proposal is for a protocol apps could use to register and look up services

The most straightforward way to support onioncat is with a service directory.

Introduction
============
Overview
========
The general idea is to use Pluggable Transports (PTs) as an I2P transport for
communication between routers. It would be an easy way to experiment with
alternative protocols, and get ready for I2P blocking resistance.
This proposal is for creating an I2P transport that connects to other routers
through Pluggable Transports.
Thoughts
========
Motivation
==========
Pluggable Transports (PTs) were developed by Tor as a way to add obfuscation
transports to Tor bridges in a modular way.
I2P already has a modular transport system that decreases the barrier to adding
alternative transports. Adding support for PTs would provide I2P with an easy
way to experiment with alternative protocols, and get ready for blocking
resistance.
