Hey Stefan,

thanks for your contribution so far. I have found several problems,
which need to be fixed:

1) We cannot possibly accept any code which has not been tested. Please
go and look for some people who can do that if you cannot do it on your
own.

2) In the URL, you created are some options, which are deprecated as it
is explained here http://dyn.com/support/developers/api/perform-update/.
You should not introduce already deprecated functionality.

So, I suggest to drop "wildcard", "mx" and "backupmx" from the URL.

3) As it is listed here
http://dyn.com/support/developers/api/return-codes/, there are a lot of
return codes, which are not catched. You should consider to implement
some of them which might be useful for the users like "nofqdn" or
"nohost". I would cosider "dnserr" as mandatory.

Michael
