Have a look at pydns.sf.net - there's most of the guts needed to 
do a DNS server. (I've built a couple of little toy ones for tiny
applications using it).

I've also been interested in the zeroconf stuff, and confirmed that 
I can handle the multicast DNS stuff (I've done multicast stuff in 
the past in python - I did a simple SDR-type client years ago).
