Hi Bert,

That's great to hear. As to using it in production, we use it
extensively and quite reliably. Our biggest beef with PowerDNS is that
it takes some option/flag coaxing to compile cleanly on Gentoo and
Solaris.

BTW, what new features are slated for 2.9.21?

We're not like that.

That is not correct - the Resolver has seen heaps of releases over that
time. I'm pleased to announce that EasyDNS (www.easydns.com) is sponsoring
new features that will shortly lead to the release of the authoritative
version 2.9.21 of PowerDNS.

We are not aware of relevant security issues. Also, over the last year, many
big DNS hosters have moved to PowerDNS.

So I wouldn't worry, but please test the 2.9.21 snapshots once they become
available!
