Second: Implement a simple DNS proxy for NS, SOA, A, MX, CNAME and PTR. Third: Implement authoritive zones. Fourth: Extent the software to other types namely to IPv6. Fifth: Rewrite the whole package from scratch to implement DNSSEC. Sixth: Restart this process for the directory protocol used now. I'd contribute: Stream_Text_IO (Basic Text_IO over Ada.Streams.Root_Stream_Type'Class) Skip_Stream and Memory_Stream (indexable Stream_Type over Storage_Elements) UDP and TCP server handling packages Ringbuffer for Queuing But I can't contribute it to sourcefourge, because I have enought trouble developing at work.
