+dnspython is a DNS toolkit for Python. It supports almost all record
+types. It can be used for queries, zone transfers, and dynamic updates.
+It supports TSIG authenticated messages and EDNS0.
+
+dnspython provides both high and low level access to DNS. The high
+level classes perform queries for data of a given name, type, and
+class, and return an answer set. The low level classes allow direct
+manipulation of DNS zones, messages, names, and records.
+
+Optionally, dnspython can use pycrypto for DNSSEC functionality.
