What is depend. certainly ultradns is proprietary. but we do depend havilly on
it (more than on the forums). But as the data format is public, and access
does NOT depend on private software I don't see the problem. If the package
has a problem, we convert back into whatever we like. We would use the
software, not depend on it.
