About an absolute DLZ backend

Hi, guys

DLZ is still new to me and I am not so sure if anyone is planning to
support an absolute DLZ, that said,
not only bind zone, but all the configurations are going to be moved
into the database, including options/views ...

It seems that it would become much easier for a web-based
administration, and more common for us to avoid to parse the original
*named.conf*.
Feel free to comment, thanks.

I can't speak for Rob, but the fact that the Z in DLZ stands for "zone"
might give you a clue :)

If you want all of BIND's config in a database, you'll need to be asking
ISC about that. They run a couple of mailing lists for BIND, and accept
bugs/feature requests - all here:

Re: About an absolute DLZ backend

Hi, Graeme

Thanks for your nice cue and good advice. I understand the meaning of
DLZ, but it seems that DLZ is the only one designed for a DB backend
involved by BIND, so I asked here.

Anyway, I will also go ISC for some more checks. Thanks again.
