 (I should have also checked this: we are talking about BIND 10, not
 BIND 9, right?  Sometimes we receive BIND 9 related questions/comments
 on BIND 10 specific forums (ML, bug tickets), but right now we
 separated these mainly because of the experimental state of BIND 10.
 If you're asking about a web interface for BIND 9, please send it to
 bind9-suggest at isc.org).

 Now, assuming it's about BIND 10:

 These look nice, and we'll certainly consider some GUI-like user
 interfaces at some point.  Right now, however, we'll need to focus on
 other infrastructure features such as completing the implementation of
 standard DNS protocols, stabilizing overall system, etc.  So it won't
 take place very soon.

 Also, (at least in my personal understanding) one major goal of BIND
 10 is to provide the infrastructure on which others can build
 sophisticated user interfaces, while we may develop some of such
 things mainly to show how to do it, but we'd probably rather expect
 (and hope) others will develop and publish even nicer user interfaces
 on top of the base system.

 Anyway, we'll keep this ticket open so we can revisit it when we reach
 the stage of enhancing the user interface.

 Thanks,
