c-ares ====== This package is based on ares 1.1.1 (written by Greg Hudson). Daniel Stenberg decided to fork and release a separate project since the original ares author didn't want the improvements that were vital for our use of it. This package is dubbed 'c-ares' since Daniel wanted this for use within the curl project (hence the letter C) and it makes a nice pun. c-ares is not API compatible with ares: a new name makes that more obvious to the public. The original libares was distributed at ftp://athena-dist.mit.edu:pub/ATHENA/ares (which seems to not be alive anymore). A local copy of the original ares package is kept here: https://c-ares.haxx.se/download/ares-1.1.1.tar.gz
