* May 30 2007
+- Brad House added ares_save_options() and ares_destroy_options() that can be
+ used to keep options for later re-usal when ares_init_options() is used.
+
+ Problem: Calling ares_init() for each lookup can be unnecessarily resource
+ intensive. On windows, it must LoadLibrary() or search the registry
+ on each call to ares_init(). On unix, it must read and parse
+ multiple files to obtain the necessary configuration information. In
+ a single-threaded environment, it would make sense to only
+ ares_init() once, but in a heavily multi-threaded environment, it is
+ undesirable to ares_init() and ares_destroy() for each thread created
+ and track that.
+
+ Solution: Create ares_save_options() and ares_destroy_options() functions to
+ retrieve and free options obtained from an initialized channel. The
+ options populated can be used to pass back into ares_init_options(),
+ it should populate all needed fields and not retrieve any information
+ from the system. Probably wise to destroy the cache every minute or
+ so to prevent the data from becoming stale.
+
- Daniel S added ares_process_fd() to allow applications to ask for processing
on specific sockets and thus avoiding select() and associated
functions/macros. This function will be used by upcoming libcurl releases
