+Twisted Names is both a domain name server as well as a client resolver
+library. Twisted Names comes with an "out of the box" nameserver which can
+read most BIND-syntax zone files as well as a simple Python-based
+configuration format. Twisted Names can act as an authoritative server,
+perform zone transfers from a master to act as a secondary, act as a caching
+nameserver, or any combination of these. Twisted Names' client resolver
+library provides functions to query for all commonly used record types as
+well as a replacement for the blocking gethostbyname() function provided by
+the Python stdlib socket module.
+
+Twisted Names is available under the MIT Free Software licence.
