I gave a clear answer. If there are any pieces missing it's up to Simon

Have you seriously not been paying attention to the numerous reasons why
BIND in the base is no longer a good fit?

In any case, importing ldns/unbound is a different question from
removing BIND. Not only do I not see any reason not to move forward on
the former, I think that once people see a solid implementation in place
already it will ease the fears about removing BIND.
