Please comment,

Is there any interest in AstLinux supporting DNSCrypt ?

As you may or may not know, DNSCrypt offers encrypted privacy for DNS, while 
DNSSEC provides zone authentication.  Complimentary, each solving different 
issues.

At this point we are just looking into it, the dnscrypt-proxy 1.3.3 and 
libsodium 0.4.5 packages would need to be added to our Buildroot which could be 
a problem until it is tried.

Would you use DNSCrypt ?  Do we / customers really care ?

Is DNSCrypt the longterm standard for encrypted privacy for DNS ?

This is mostly an OpenDNS thing now, though a few other DNS prividers around 
the world also support DNSCrypt.

The dnscrypt-proxy package seems fairly lightweight, implementation would be a 
simple checkbox and automatically configuring dnsmasq to use the defined static 
DNS entries directly or via dnscrypt-proxy listening on 127.0.0.2 .

Thanks for any feedback.
