Re: [Haskell-cafe] ANN: dns-server: forward DNS queries to StatDNS REST API

Hi Joe, I picked that name because I'm writing a library for writing DNS servers (where StatDNS is just a backend besides plain text files and SQL databases). The forwarder is just one use case of this more general library. That being said, I don't plan to put it on Hackage. Feel free to upload yours. I'll think of a better name in the meanwhile. Good luck with your project! Best, Erik (Perhaps I made this ANN too early.) On Fri, Apr 24, 2015 at 12:30 AM, Joe Hillenbrand wrote:

Could you please change the name to something more specific to your use case? I've considered writing an actual fully-featured DNS server in haskell and that is not what you've built.

Bad news: ISP is intercepting packets to UDP port 53.

Good news: There is DNS resolution over HTTP (http://www.statdns.com/api/).

Bad news: The software bridging DNS clients and that HTTP service is missing.

Good news: I made (a small but working part of) it.

I've been using it on my computer.
