Recommended cookbook for managing Bind, DNS zones and record entries?

I’m trying to figure out the best way to manage my dns servers via Chef and
I was wondering if anyone had a recommended cookbook to manage a Bind9
server, dns zones, and records using data_bags or ?

The bind9-chroot opscode cookbook seems to cover pretty much all the bases.

This one looks promising: GitHub - Youscribe/bind9-cookbook: Chef cookbook for BIND9
But it claims to be incomplete. There seem to be several forks that
are all of the same lineage, but I'm not sure what the relationship of
them is/are.

Having said that, I'm writing my own. The content served by our dns
servers is in mysql (we use the bind-dlz support), so I don't need to
manage the zones, only the named.conf and the required directories for
bind to run.

I'm a new Chef user so I am still learning, but I hang out in Chef Infra (archive)
and #learnchef daily if you would like to collaborate. My nick is
cannonball; feel free to look me up.
