It was days after a chanced conversation with Rahul  wherein
          he  mentioned  about  DJB, qmail and its peculiarity, that Rakesh
          asked me to package something for Fedora and  I  said  okay.  The
          following  day  as  I  was  scrolling  down the long wish list of
          packages that people want to  see  in  Fedora,  I  stumbled  upon
          djbdns.  Well, it was for those three letters DJB, that I clicked
          on the link and reached to  the  source  of  djbdns.  After  some
          reading  and  browsing about djbdns, I took upon packaging djbdns
          for Fedora. Oblivious to the full measure of what I  was  getting
          into.

               Soon  into  the  installation and configuration of djbdns, I
          realised what Rahul meant by peculiar. But it felt a  little  too
          late  to  stop  then, so I continued with certain ambivalence and
          ended up packaging daemontools along with  djbdns.   There  began
          the  loop  of review-change-review process, in the end of which I
          cut the deal to set djbdns free from the clutches of  daemontools
          and  package  again.   Thus  setting  the  genesis  of this *new*
          release of djbdns. ...gawd, it's a *big*  mess  of  restructuring
          and renovation.


          The aim is to:

              - Make djbdns as much concise & independent as possible.
              - Simplify installation & configuration using GNU auto tools.
              - Drop the various *-conf programs.
              - Follow FHS conventions for all kinds of configuration, data
                and log files.
              - Write good user manuals.

              - While doing all of this, not to lose track of security and
                apply all the patches available so far.
