Howdy all,

I was reading the release plan[1], and I saw mentioned 'Signer - Dynamic updates'. Could you elaborate on that?

Currently, the best method I've found for integrating ODS with a dynamic zone on one server is the CentralNIC pattern[2] - the unsigned zone is served by a master from a private view, injected into ODS by a DNS input adapter, signed file goes out, and finally the signed file is served statically by the master on a public view. This method works, but is a little cumbersome.

I'm really hoping that what is meant by 'dynamic updates' is that ODS would take notifies to know when the dynamic zone is changed, would download the updates via IXFR, and then directly add/update/delete records as needed via dynamic updates. If so, this would be huge, since it would greatly ease integration of ODS into dynamic zones. I imagine the similarly mentioned "Database input and output adapter" would work the same way, but would directly update a database storing the zone.

Is my understanding of the release plan correct? If so, I'm really excited for the future of OpenDNSSEC.


Thanks for all of the great work!
