ANNOUNCE: bpp -- a bind pre-processor supporting chains of name ailases

[Karl O. Pinc]

bpp is a m4 macro package for pre-processing the master files
bind uses to define zones. In consists primarily of a macro,
NAME, which can be used in place of CNAME and A records.
Unlike CNAME resource records, which should not alias other
CNAME records, host names defined with NAME can recursively
alias other host named defined with NAME.

Use of the software requires m4 be installed, it is otherwise
(probably) platform and os independent (although the trival
shell script used to invoke m4 requires un*x).

bpp is distributed under GPL. (It's free!)

This is the first public release of this package, the
software is in beta. Please e-mail k...@meme.com with any
