You might be better served by the general maintain list, and I have
cc'ed that list also.  So you can pick up with the thread there if it
takes off.

Oregon State University made the transition to Maintain long ago from a
very customized system.  As such we don't have any scripts for importing
existing DNS data.  Purdue University has scripts that may work, and
they are on the maintain mailing list, and hang out in #maintain on
irc.freenode.net.

If I had the time I would invest it in doing zone transfers from DNS
servers into Maintain using this:

Internationalization is not currently planned, but if you undertook such
an effort I would be willing to help with debugging, merging changes,
and of course maintaining the patches once they were in a proper state
to go into the tree.

Best Wishes,

Brandon
