README.markdown

Alternative (more granular) approach to a DNS library.

Completely usable DNS library. Most widely used Resource Records are supported. DNSSEC types too. EDNS0 is (see edns.go), UDP/TCP queries, TSIG, AXFR (and IXFR probably) too. Both client and server side programming is supported.

Sample programs can be found in the _examples directory. They can be build with: make examples (after the dns package has been installed)

The major omission at the moment is parsing Resource Records from strings. (i.e. supporting the RFC 1035 zone file format). Also the IPv6 support needs to be tested

Everything else should be present and working. If not, drop me an email.

Have fun!
