I was just thinking that C may not be the best language to be writing
this sort of code in, for all the usual reasons.

Do people think it would be a worthwhile exercise to, as a test case,
translate dnsserver and/or ftpget into another language ? For extra
bonus points... which language would you choose and why ? :-)

Cheerio,

Martin

PS Personally I'd be quite keen on seeing how well Perl performed,
being a long time Perl dabbler. Scores: good on productivity and ease
of bug fixing/introducing (new features) but probably bad on
performance ? Possibly not a serious problem for this application,
where network latency is the performance killer...
