1c-ares 2====== 3 4This package is based on ares 1.1.1 (written by Greg Hudson). Daniel Stenberg 5decided to fork and release a separate project since the original ares author 6didn't want the improvements that were vital for our use of it. 7 8This package is dubbed 'c-ares' since Daniel wanted this for use within the 9curl project (hence the letter C) and it makes a nice pun. c-ares is not API 10compatible with ares: a new name makes that more obvious to the public. 11 12The original libares was distributed at 13ftp://athena-dist.mit.edu:pub/ATHENA/ares (which seems to not be alive 14anymore). A local copy of the original ares package is kept here: 15https://c-ares.org/download/ares-1.1.1.tar.gz 16
