Hello,
I have a set of data about a group of domains, and I need to take that data and create a set of zone files readable by bind. My question is.. what is the best way to do this?

I've searched through cpan and found two options:

• DNS::ZoneFile looks interesting, but hasn't had an update since September, 2000. Will it work with modern versions of bind?
• DNS::ZoneParse Is about a year newer than DNS::ZoneFile. It also seems to have more features. But, it seems tuned more to the situation where you already have a zone file and are more interested in reading from it. How well does it work when you are going in the opposite direction?

Is there something that I missed? I really don't want to be re-inventing a wheel here if I don't have to.
