Hello,

I've added default handlers for authors.{bind|server} and version.{bind|server} in Go DNS. If you want you can add them to geodns (don't feel obliged). See https://github.com/miekg/dns/blob/master/ex/reflect/reflect.go for an example. The dns.Authors list and dns.Version is public so you can override it.

I will add that. It already has something similar with (more) public information anyway:

$ dig +short -t txt _status.pgeodns @207.171.3.7 | perl -pe 's/\\"/"/g'
"{"h":"ntplax4.ntppool.net","id":"207.171.3.7","qs":"8820174","up":"31747","v":"2.0/51f859b4"}"

Cool. Yeah I'm using that 'dig' too to check if it's still running :)
