There was a problem hiding this comment.
I like the general idea of this but not the implementation.
- nitpick:
D_EXTENDis very slow. I don't want to encourage its use. - blocker: One domain per file is good. Individual files for spf, google site verification, etc. is better done as macros.
- needs more discussion: I strongly feel this should be in a separate repo. The domain is not part of the project. For example, if someone were to fork the project, I wouldn't want them to have to delete this and replace it with their own domain.
I think this needs a lot more discussion: I think what we're doing here is trying to decide what "best practice" we want to normalize for our users. I could be talked out of it, but my vision is two parts: (1) provide dnscontrol init (which I haven't tried yet) to help people get started, (2) provide a repo that shows the result of dnscontrol init so that (a) people can see what the result looks like, (b) people can see a working example that is exactly what we recommend, (c) people that don't want to or can't use init can clone this repo as an alternative way of getting started.
