Name Registry

Energy Web has deployed OpenEthereum's Name Registry contract. This contract is identical to OpenEthereum's original contract, with the exception that it was made Ownable by Energy Web Foundation. Only Energy Web can reserve a name or drain funds from this contract.

There are two reasons for making this contract Ownable:

1. OpenEthereum's name registry might be needed for other OpenEthereum related system contracts later: e.g. service transaction checker, or auto updater.

2. We will have the official Ethereum Name Service system set up on the chain, so this contract is only needed for internal purposes and will not be used publicly.

The name registry is a placeholder for now. The contract can be found in our repo: https://github.com/energywebfoundation/ewc-system-contracts/tree/master/contracts/registry
