Installation: http://designate.readthedocs.org/en/latest/install.html

TODOs:

• 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
