However, your point is interesting and valid. However, I expect every DNS server has its own murky format that would cause some difficulties (and some even store their configs in databases). Even though there is an RFC that defines the configuration file format, that doesn't mean name resolvers follow it. Creating such a root hits package could be a challenge and would likely require cooperation from the various package developers at which point its questionable if a different package is a worthwhile effort as each package maintainer could just build this update into their own package, suited for their own package's individual peculiarities. micah
