-BIND 9.6.3
-
-	BIND 9.6.3 is a maintenance release, fixing bugs in 9.6.2.
-
-BIND 9.6.2
-
-	BIND 9.6.2 is a maintenance release, fixing bugs in 9.6.1.
-        It also introduces support for the SHA-2 DNSSEC algorithms,
-        RSASHA256 and RSASHA512.
-
-        Known issues in this release:
-
-        - A validating resolver that has been incorrectly configured with
-          an invalid trust anchor will be unable to resolve names covered
-          by that trust anchor.  In all current versions of BIND 9, such a
-          resolver will also generate significant unnecessary DNS traffic
-          while trying to validate.  The latter problem will be addressed
-          in future BIND 9 releases.  In the meantime, to avoid these
-          problems, exercise caution when configuring "trusted-keys":
-          make sure all keys are correct and current when you add them,
-          and update your configuration in a timely manner when keys
-          roll over.
-
-BIND 9.6.1
-
-	BIND 9.6.1 is a maintenance release, fixing bugs in 9.6.0.
-
-BIND 9.6.0
-
-        BIND 9.6.0 includes a number of changes from BIND 9.5 and earlier
-        releases, including:
-
-        Full NSEC3 support
-
-        Automatic zone re-signing
-
-	New update-policy methods tcp-self and 6to4-self
-
-        The BIND 8 resolver library, libbind, has been removed from the
-        BIND 9 distribution and is now available as a separate download.
-
-	Change the default pid file location from /var/run to
-	/var/run/{named,lwresd} for improved chroot/setuid support.
-
-BIND 9.5.0
-
-	BIND 9.5.0 has a number of new features over 9.4,
-	including:
-
-	GSS-TSIG support (RFC 3645).
-
-	DHCID support.
-
-	Experimental http server and statistics support for named via xml.
-
-	More detailed statistics counters including those supported in BIND 8.
-
-	Faster ACL processing.
-
-	Use Doxygen to generate internal documentation.
-
-        Efficient LRU cache-cleaning mechanism.
-
-        NSID support.
-
-BIND 9.4.0
-
-	BIND 9.4.0 has a number of new features over 9.3,
-	including:
-
-	Implemented "additional section caching (or acache)", an
-	internal cache framework for additional section content to
-	improve response performance.  Several configuration options
-	were provided to control the behavior.
-
-	New notify type 'master-only'.  Enable notify for master
-	zones only.
-
-	Accept 'notify-source' style syntax for query-source.
-
-	rndc now allows addresses to be set in the server clauses.
-
-	New option "allow-query-cache".  This lets "allow-query"
-	be used to specify the default zone access level rather
-	than having to have every zone override the global value.
-	"allow-query-cache" can be set at both the options and view
-	levels.  If "allow-query-cache" is not set then "allow-recursion"
-	is used if set, otherwise "allow-query" is used if set
-	unless "recursion no;" is set in which case "none;" is used,
-	otherwise the default (localhost; localnets;) is used.
-
-	rndc: the source address can now be specified.
-
-	ixfr-from-differences now takes master and slave in addition
-	to yes and no at the options and view levels.
-
-	Allow the journal's name to be changed via named.conf.
-
-	'rndc notify zone [class [view]]' resend the NOTIFY messages
-	for the specified zone.
-
-	'dig +trace' now randomly selects the next servers to try.
-	Report if there is a bad delegation.
-
-	Improve check-names error messages.
-
-	Make public the function to read a key file, dst_key_read_public().
-
-	dig now returns the byte count for axfr/ixfr.
-			
-	allow-update is now settable at the options / view level.
-
-	named-checkconf now checks the logging configuration.
-
-	host now can turn on memory debugging flags with '-m'.
-
-	Don't send notify messages to self.
-
-	Perform sanity checks on NS records which refer to 'in zone' names.
-
-	New zone option "notify-delay".  Specify a minimum delay
-	between sets of NOTIFY messages.
-
-	Extend adjusting TTL warning messages.
-
-	Named and named-checkzone can now both check for non-terminal
-	wildcard records.
-
-	"rndc freeze/thaw" now freezes/thaws all zones.
-
-	named-checkconf now check acls to verify that they only
-	refer to existing acls.
-
-	The server syntax has been extended to support a range of
-	servers.
-
-	Report differences between hints and real NS rrset and
-	associated address records.
-
-	Preserve the case of domain names in rdata during zone
-	transfers.
-
-	Restructured the data locking framework using architecture
-	dependent atomic operations (when available), improving
-	response performance on multi-processor machines significantly.
-	x86, x86_64, alpha, powerpc, and mips are currently supported.
-
-	UNIX domain controls are now supported.
-
-	Add support for additional zone file formats for improving
-	loading performance.  The masterfile-format option in
-	named.conf can be used to specify a non-default format.  A
-	separate command named-compilezone was provided to generate
-	zone files in the new format.  Additionally, the -I and -O
-	options for dnssec-signzone specify the input and output
-	formats.
-
-	dnssec-signzone can now randomize signature end times
-	(dnssec-signzone -j jitter).
-
-	Add support for CH A record.
-
-	Add additional zone data constancy checks.  named-checkzone
-	has extended checking of NS, MX and SRV record and the hosts
-	they reference.  named has extended post zone load checks.
-	New zone options: check-mx and integrity-check.
-
-
-	edns-udp-size can now be overridden on a per server basis.
-
-	dig can now specify the EDNS version when making a query.
-
-	Added framework for handling multiple EDNS versions.
-
-	Additional memory debugging support to track size and mctx
-	arguments.
-
-	Detect duplicates of UDP queries we are recursing on and
-	drop them.  New stats category "duplicates".
-
-	"USE INTERNAL MALLOC" is now runtime selectable.
-
-	The lame cache is now done on a <qname,qclass,qtype> basis
-	as some servers only appear to be lame for certain query
-	types.
-
-	Limit the number of recursive clients that can be waiting
-	for a single query (<qname,qtype,qclass>) to resolve.  New
-	options clients-per-query and max-clients-per-query.
-
-	dig: report the number of extra bytes still left in the
-	packet after processing all the records.
-
-	Support for IPSECKEY rdata type.
-
-	Raise the UDP recieve buffer size to 32k if it is less than 32k.
-
-	x86 and x86_64 now have seperate atomic locking implementations.
-
-	named-checkconf now validates update-policy entries.
-
-	Attempt to make the amount of work performed in a iteration
-	self tuning.  The covers nodes clean from the cache per
-	iteration, nodes written to disk when rewriting a master
-	file and nodes destroyed per iteration when destroying a
-	zone or a cache.
-
-	ISC string copy API.
-
-	Automatic empty zone creation for D.F.IP6.ARPA and friends.
-	Note: RFC 1918 zones are not yet covered by this but are
-	likely to be in a future release.
-
-	New options: empty-server, empty-contact, empty-zones-enable
-	and disable-empty-zone.
-
-	dig now has a '-q queryname' and '+showsearch' options.
-
-	host/nslookup now continue (default)/fail on SERVFAIL.
-
-	dig now warns if 'RA' is not set in the answer when 'RD'
-	was set in the query.  host/nslookup skip servers that fail
-	to set 'RA' when 'RD' is set unless a server is explicitly
-	set.
-
-	Integrate contibuted DLZ code into named.
-
-	Integrate contibuted IDN code from JPNIC.
-
-	libbind: corresponds to that from BIND 8.4.7.
-
-BIND 9.3.0
-
-	BIND 9.3.0 has a number of new features over 9.2,
-	including:
-
-	DNSSEC is now DS based (RFC 3658).
-	See also RFC 3845, doc/draft/draft-ietf-dnsext-dnssec-*.
-
-	DNSSEC lookaside validation.
-
-	check-names is now implemented.
-	rrset-order in more complete.
-
-	IPv4/IPv6 transition support, dual-stack-servers.
-
-	IXFR deltas can now be generated when loading master files,
-	ixfr-from-differences.
-
-	It is now possible to specify the size of a journal, max-journal-size.
-
-	It is now possible to define a named set of master servers to be
-	used in masters clause, masters.
-
-	The advertised EDNS UDP size can now be set, edns-udp-size.
-
-	allow-v6-synthesis has been obsoleted.
-
-	NOTE:
-	* Zones containing MD and MF will now be rejected.
-	* dig, nslookup name. now report "Not Implemented" as
-	  NOTIMP rather than NOTIMPL.  This will have impact on scripts
-	  that are looking for NOTIMPL.
-
-	libbind: corresponds to that from BIND 8.4.5.
-
-BIND 9.2.0
-
-	BIND 9.2.0 has a number of new features over 9.1,
-	including:
-
-	  - The size of the cache can now be limited using the
-            "max-cache-size" option.
-
-	  - The server can now automatically convert RFC1886-style
-	    recursive lookup requests into RFC2874-style lookups, 
-	    when enabled using the new option "allow-v6-synthesis".
-            This allows stub resolvers that support AAAA records
-            but not A6 record chains or binary labels to perform
-            lookups in domains that make use of these IPv6 DNS
-            features.
-
-	  - Performance has been improved.
-
-	  - The man pages now use the more portable "man" macros
-	    rather than the "mandoc" macros, and are installed
-            by "make install".
-
-          - The named.conf parser has been completely rewritten.
-            It now supports "include" directives in more
-            places such as inside "view" statements, and it no
-            longer has any reserved words.
-
-          - The "rndc status" command is now implemented.
-
-	  - rndc can now be configured automatically.
-
-	  - A BIND 8 compatible stub resolver library is now
-	    included in lib/bind.
-
-	  - OpenSSL has been removed from the distribution.  This
-	    means that to use DNSSEC, OpenSSL must be installed and
-	    the --with-openssl option must be supplied to configure.
-	    This does not apply to the use of TSIG, which does not
-	    require OpenSSL.
-
-	  - The source distribution now builds on Windows.
-	    See win32utils/readme1.txt and win32utils/win32-build.txt
-	    for details.
-
-	This distribution also includes a new lightweight stub
-	resolver library and associated resolver daemon that fully
-	support forward and reverse lookups of both IPv4 and IPv6
-	addresses.  This library is considered experimental and
-	is not a complete replacement for the BIND 8 resolver library.
-	Applications that use the BIND 8 res_* functions to perform
-	DNS lookups or dynamic updates still need to be linked against
-	the BIND 8 libraries.  For DNS lookups, they can also use the
-	new "getrrsetbyname()" API.
-
-	BIND 9.2 is capable of acting as an authoritative server
-	for DNSSEC secured zones.  This functionality is believed to
-	be stable and complete except for lacking support for
-	verifications involving wildcard records in secure zones.
-
-	When acting as a caching server, BIND 9.2 can be configured
-	to perform DNSSEC secure resolution on behalf of its clients.
-	This part of the DNSSEC implementation is still considered
-	experimental.  For detailed information about the state of the
-	DNSSEC implementation, see the file doc/misc/dnssec.
-
-	There are a few known bugs:
-
-		On some systems, IPv6 and IPv4 sockets interact in
-		unexpected ways.  For details, see doc/misc/ipv6.
-		To reduce the impact of these problems, the server
-		no longer listens for requests on IPv6 addresses
-		by default.  If you need to accept DNS queries over
-		IPv6, you must specify "listen-on-v6 { any; };"
-		in the named.conf options statement.
-
-		FreeBSD prior to 4.2 (and 4.2 if running as non-root)
-		and OpenBSD prior to 2.8 log messages like
-		"fcntl(8, F_SETFL, 4): Inappropriate ioctl for device".
-		This is due to a bug in "/dev/random" and impacts the
-		server's DNSSEC support.
-
-		OS X 10.1.4 (Darwin 5.4), OS X 10.1.5 (Darwin 5.5) and
-		OS X 10.2 (Darwin 6.0) reports errors like
-		"fcntl(3, F_SETFL, 4): Operation not supported by device".
-		This is due to a bug in "/dev/random" and impacts the
-		server's DNSSEC support.
-
-		--with-libtool does not work on AIX.
-
-	A bug in some versions of the Microsoft DNS server can cause zone
-        transfers from a BIND 9 server to a W2K server to fail.  For details,
-	see the "Zone Transfers" section in doc/misc/migration.

+BIND 9.8.0
+
+        BIND 9.8.0 includes a number of changes from BIND 9.7 and earlier
+        releases.  New features include:
+
+        - Built-in trust anchor for the root zone, which can be
+          switched on via "dnssec-validation auto;"
+        - Support for DNS64.
+        - Support for response policy zones (RPZ).
+        - Support for writable DLZ zones.
+        - Improved ease of configuration of GSS/TSIG for
+          interoperability with Active Directory
+        - Support for GOST signing algorithm for DNSSEC.
+        - Removed RTT Banding from server selection algorithm.
+        - New "static-stub" zone type.
+        - Allow configuration of resolver timeouts via
+          "resolver-query-timeout" option.
+
+BIND 9.7.0
+
+	BIND 9.7.0 includes a number of changes from BIND 9.6 and earlier
+	releases.  Most are intended to simplify DNSSEC configuration.
+
+	New features include:
+
+	- Fully automatic signing of zones by "named".
+	- Simplified configuration of DNSSEC Lookaside Validation (DLV).
+	- Simplified configuration of Dynamic DNS, using the "ddns-confgen"
+	  command line tool or the "local" update-policy option.  (As a side
+	  effect, this also makes it easier to configure automatic zone
+	  re-signing.)
+	- New named option "attach-cache" that allows multiple views to
+	  share a single cache.
+	- DNS rebinding attack prevention.
+	- New default values for dnssec-keygen parameters.
+	- Support for RFC 5011 automated trust anchor maintenance
+	- Smart signing: simplified tools for zone signing and key
+	  maintenance.
+	- The "statistics-channels" option is now available on Windows.
+	- A new DNSSEC-aware libdns API for use by non-BIND9 applications
+	- On some platforms, named and other binaries can now print out
+	  a stack backtrace on assertion failure, to aid in debugging.
+	- A "tools only" installation mode on Windows, which only installs
+	  dig, host, nslookup and nsupdate.
+	- Improved PKCS#11 support, including Keyper support and explicit
+	  OpenSSL engine selection.
+
+	Known issues in this release:
+
+	- In rare cases, DNSSEC validation can leak memory.  When this 
+	  happens, it will cause an assertion failure when named exits,
+	  but is otherwise harmless.  A fix exists, but was too late for
+	  this release; it will be included in BIND 9.7.1.
+
+	Compatibility notes:
+
+	- If you had built BIND 9.6 with any of ALLOW_NSEC3PARAM_UPDATE,
+	  ALLOW_SECURE_TO_INSECURE or ALLOW_INSECURE_TO_SECURE defined, then
+	  you should ensure that all changes that are in progress have
+	  completed prior to upgrading to BIND 9.7.  BIND 9.7 implements
+	  those features in a way which is not backwards compatible.
+
+	- Prior releases had a bug which caused HMAC-SHA* keys with long
+	  secrets to be used incorrectly.  Fixing this bug means that older
+	  versions of BIND 9 may fail to interoperate with this version
+	  when using TSIG keys.  If this occurs, the new "isc-hmac-fixup"
+	  tool will convert a key with a long secret into a form that works
+	  correctly with all versions of BIND 9.  See the "isc-hmac-fixup"
+	  man page for additional details.
+
+	- Revoking a DNSSEC key with "dnssec-revoke" changes its key ID.
+	  It is possible for the new key ID to collide with that of a
+	  different key.  Newly generated keys will not have this problem,
+	  as "dnssec-keygen" looks for potential collisions before
+	  generating keys, but exercise caution if using key revokation
+	  with keys that were generated by older versions of BIND 9.  See
+	  the Administrator's Reference Manual, section 4.10 ("Dynamic
+	  Trust Anchor Management") for more details.
+
+	- A bug was fixed in which a key's scheduled inactivity date was
+	  stored incorectly.  Users who participated in the 9.7.0 BETA test
+	  and had DNSSEC keys with scheduled inactivity dates will need to
+	  reset those keys' dates using "dnssec-settime -I".
