Hi Jon,
Yes, BQ is a DNS/hosting/email GUI ( control panel ) that was originally 
developed by Sun and then they EOL there Sun/Cobalt servers releasing 
the GUI to OpenSource. This is where a group out of Japan 
http://bluequartz.org/ developed it to work on newer platforms

Best Regards, Jon McCauley
