Hello,
from a users point of view I would love to see a tiny performing DNS
cache in Debian which is maintained upstream. However judging from the
respective descriptions on the web I guess that deadwood should work
as well as a djbdns fork.
OTOH I wonder what would keep you as maintainer interested in taking
care of two different packages doing basically the same job. You will
soon find out that you like one better and will only use this one. You
might then have a hard time motivating yourself to invest time in the
other one.
