I know what I'm talking about.  udns is not part of any released
version of debian.  See http://bugs.debian.org/408831 .
It was several years ago, and now I don't see any good reason to
not release the package, -- even if I will implement my plans,
it is possible to make the new API and current one to co-exist
nicely, so no API breakage will occur.  In 0.1 version all other
concerns are addressed too, also, thanks for all your good
testing, a few more bugs are now fixed.
