DJ Bernstein TinyDNS 1.05 Anycast djbdns, nice :)

  Did you use fpdns (http://code.google.com/p/fpdns/ http://code.google.com/p/fpdns/) to finger-print Amazon's service? If so, I've never heard good things about djbdns :( NSD (http://nlnetlabs.nl/projects/nsd/ http://nlnetlabs.nl/projects/nsd/) seems to be the new hotness as far as authoritative DNS servers go.

    No, I've set up Route 53 on my own domain (ramov.com) and queried the results via DNSCog (http://www.dnscog.com/ http://www.dnscog.com/). I've used NSD once, it was good. Other than djb 'non standard' conventions and installation procedures, I see no other issues with his software and am happy Amazon opted for djbdns, especially since I don't have to manage it :)

      This announcement would have been worth something if they supported DNSSEC automatically for all the domains they host. Using unmaintained broken software prevents them from supporting advanced protocol features. For another example, the DNS already has a standard update API, but Amazon chose crippled software and reinvented the wheel instead of interoperating with the dynamic update code that is already out there.
