1 c-ares 2 ====== 3 4 This package is based on ares 1.1.1 (written by Greg Hudson). I decided to 5 fork and release a separate project since the ares author didn't want the 6 improvements that were vital for our use of it. 7 8 This package is dubbed 'c-ares' since I (Daniel Stenberg) wanted this for use 9 within the curl project (hence the letter C) and it makes a nice pun. Also, 10 c-ares is not API compatible with ares: a new name makes that more obvious to 11 the public. 12 13 The original libares was distributed at athena-dist.mit.edu:pub/ATHENA/ares. 14
