[dnstap] dnstap status

[Paul Vixie]

i heard folks talking about dnstap as abandonware, during ietf prague, 
and planning a rescue.

allow me to clarify. dnstap is open source software, effectively owned 
by those who use it, who integrate it, who enhance it, and who submit 
bug reports to it.

farsight funded the initial development, and we act as reviewers for 
pull requests, but more volunteers for that would be welcomed.

if you think dnstap needs something-- say so on this mailing list, get a 
discussion going.

if you know people who use or could or might use or integrate dnstap, 
who are not on this mailing list, please invite them.

if there's finally critical mass for it, we should get cracking on an 
RFC to describe both dnstap and fstrm.

and if there's critical mass for it, we should consider mentoring GSoC 
students who want to work in this area.

and if there's critical mass for it, we should have periodic hackathons 
via videoconferencing.

the dnstap is whoever shows up and contributes.

no adoption or rescue is needed. just show up and contribute.
