I disagree. This is about the (relative) usefulness or non-usefulness of BIND
and/or various features within it. That most certainly is of interest to at
least some BIND users. This isn't the "bind-help" list. The description of
the list on the ISC website is:

I've never taken the "This is a good place ..." language to mean that the
list was *limited* to those topics. Anything which is reasonably likely to be
of interest to users (or potential users, I would say) of BIND, would appear
to be fair game here.
