Docs: http://designate.readthedocs.org and some below for now. Bugs / Blueprints: http://launchpad.net/moniker
IRC: #openstack-dns
Installation: http://designate.readthedocs.org/en/latest/install.html
- Documentation!
- Fixup Bind9 agent implementation so it could be considered even remotely reliable
- Re-Add PowerDNS agent implementation.
- Unit Tests!!
- Integration with other OS servers eg Nova and Quantum
- Listen for floating IP allocation/deallocation events - giving user access to the necessary PTR record.
- Listen for server create/destroy events - creating DNS records as needed.
- Listen for server add/remove from security group events - creating "load balancing" DNS RR records as needed.
- Introduce Server Pools
- Server pools will allow a provider to 'schedule' a end users domain to one of many available DNS server pools
