Here is a timeline of events which got the project started

Hello all #isp of the world. We're going to add a new competing root-server since we're tired of #ICANN. Please contact me to help.

Build instructions

For now you need the following libraries installed:

• tokyocabinet, lightweight and fast embedded database
• libevent >= 2.0, event based network, http & dns library
• libgcrypt >= 1.4.1, general purpose crypto library based on the code used in GnuPG

You can also use cmake to build the project:

make cmake.build [CMAKE_OPTS=<cmake options>]

Here are some of the variables you might want to tweak:

• CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE - Debug or Release
• CMAKE_C_FLAGS - Additional compiler flags
• LIBEVENT2_PREFIX
• TOKYOCABINET_PREFIX
• GCRYPT_PREFIX - Installation prefix of dependencies, if non-standard

This can be passed to CMake as follows:

cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DLIBEVENT2_PREFIX=/opt/libevent2/
