nscd for freebsd

Hi, list

I'm interested in name service caching daemon for freebsd (it's useful
for external userbase, stored in ldap and for monitoring hosts, with
resolving/polling of many hosts). It's much more useful, then local
cached named and local ldap replica.

I found "cached" daemon in HEAD.

Can somebody answer me -- when this daemon will be MFC-ed to RELENG_6?
Also why this strange name?
It's impossible to find this name in google, cause this daemon used to
be called nscd.
Is there any reason for inventing new name?

WBR.
