    Hi HN,

    I created a clone of xip.io using PowerDNS and a simple custom PipeBackend using a single Python script.

    After the initial discussion[1] and the glaring DNS mistakes[2] done on xip.io, I spent about 5 hours this afternoon to create nip.io which does exactly the same thing, but without most of the DNS mistakes.

    Feedback welcome!

    Thanks

    rs
