c-ares
======
This package is based on ares 1.1.1 (written by Greg Hudson). I've decided to
put together and release my own ares archives since the ares maintainer
doesn't want these improvements.
This package is based on ares 1.1.1 (written by Greg Hudson). I decided to
fork and release a separate project since the ares author didn't want the
improvements that were vital for our use of it.
The package is thus dubbed 'c-ares' since I (Daniel Stenberg) want this for
use within the curl project (hence the letter C) and it makes a nice
pun. Also, c-ares will not remain API compatible with the original ares, so
picking a new name makes it more obvious to the public.

The full source code is available in the 'c-ares' release archives, and in the
'ares' subdir of the curl CVS source repostitory.
If you find bugs, correct flaws, have questions or have comments in general in
regard to c-ares (or by all means the original ares too), get in touch with us
on the curl-library mailing list.

c-ares is of course distributed under the same MIT-style license as the
original ares.
