dnstap-gael

This is NOT an original piece of work, just a snap of dnstap

dnstap implements an encoding format for DNS server events. It uses a
lightweight framing on top of event payloads encoded using Protocol Buffers and
is transport neutral.

dnstap can represent internal state inside a DNS server that is difficult to
obtain using techniques based on traditional packet capture or unstructured
textual format logging.
