actually, since it has a BIND-compatible mode, it's perfectly appropriate,
and in any case the only moderation which occurs is for spam rejection,
not content policing.  in any case i remember seeing the announcement, so
it must have been published somewhere.

sometimes the moderator of that forum tells us that BIND-specific issues do
not belong there.  it's possible that c.p.d.b is actually the right place
for powerdns-related discussions.
