I used dents a month or so ago as part of a test with SuperSparrow and
Ultramonkey (both Good Projects that have also been abandoned...sigh).
I've been half considering taking over maintenance of the project.  BIND
is the One True Nameserver, but it wouldn't do some stuff I wanted it to
do without some major kludgy hacking...and the people at ISC wouldn't even
consider adding that functionality in a release or two down the road.
