RPZ support in Unbound?

we (farsight security) have an rpz implementation that works with
unbound. it is not open source. we make it available, along with a right
to use, for any unbound server which is instrumented with a passive dns
sensor (so, no money changes hands.) this implementation (called
"fastrpz") consists of a background server process, a command line
utility, a shared library, and a small set of patches to unbound itself
(adding hooks). contact me if you'd like to hear more details.
