+This tiny patch to rbldns adds records for the root of the zone.  That
+is, if the rbldns zone is bad.example.com, with entries like
+3.0.0.127.bad.example.com, you can now also have A and TXT records for
+plain bad.example.com.  I did this for my korea.services.net zone,
+since potential users keep typing korea.services.net into their web
+browsers and expecting something useful to happen.
+
+There's one new record type in the data file, a line starting with an
+exclamation point, in the same format as the colon record, e.g.
+
+  !10.11.12.13:See http://bad.example.com
+
+(Unlike in a colon record, a $ at the end of the text isn't special.)
+
+No warranty expressed or implied.  If you find bugs, feel free to fix
+them.
