Hi there, jforman.

I'm evaluating binder on Ubuntu 14.04 and had to install a few dependencies before I could successfully install other prereqs via pip:

apt-get install python-dev libxml2-dev libxslt-dev

It would be nice to have que python prereqs on a requirements.txt file. For instance, this is the output of a pip freeze on my virtualenv:

BeautifulSoup==3.2.1 Django==1.7.7 argparse==1.2.1 beautifulsoup4==4.3.2 dnspython==1.12.0 lxml==3.4.2 pybindxml==0.3 wsgiref==0.1.2

Also not mentioned in the docs, "zone-statistics true;" must be set in named.conf.options (debunduish configs)

After these, I could get it to create and delete records on my test bind.

Still needs a lot of work until it's ready for real world usage, but it's a nice piece of work!

I've added a bit about zone-statistics in 27ec2e218cacda8309a250a7a5e143256be4490b. I want to read up on requirements.txt since I just did a bit of work on pybindxml today.

Thanks for the comment, and the idea of a requirements file. I've added this to the repo with cb44c457ec4dff446e53607bdc4bf6ff4cbb5b43.

Binder is mostly a free-time exercise for me away from the day job and family, glad you enjoy it.
