Hello Michael and list followers,

during my work on integrating several dynamic dns providers I've 
rewritten the code for the dyndns.org provider.

I've included your suggestions and was able to do some testing by using 
the provided test accounts from dyndns.org 
(http://dyn.com/support/developers/test-account/)

I've pushed the changes to my personal git repository, they can be found 
here:

http://git.ipfire.org/?p=people/stevee/ddns.git;a=blobdiff;f=src/ddns/providers.py;h=5954b91c17ad27aa58d86ad5cd9f49e50e5aa973;hp=2788c9722ae86aa1ac89d8aab32e72129e0a0209;hb=b5bf290b8a613ac5becf59c71cbb1922d4ce53c5;hpb=3fcc662c83320ff8c0e64e22d0604f8955ab4011

Please have a look on them and merge the changes to the main ddns git 
repository so we can support this provider.

Best regards,

-Stefan
