    YADIFA 1.0.2
        Fixes only

    Fixes:
        _ fixed an issue where the journal file was sometimes not properly closed at the end of a task
        _ fixed an issue where the TCP usage slots would sometimes wrongly return that they were all being used
        _ fixed an issue on IXFR processing (slave side) where the type of answer from the master would not be properly detected
        _ fixed an issue with TSIG on secrets not exactly 16 bytes long (binary form)
        _ fixed an issue on 32 bits architectures where the sig-validity-* fields would not be properly handled if not set
          on each zone section.
        _ slightly improved the replay time of big journal files
        _ fixed several minor issues

    Known issues:
        _ if the serial of a zone is changed in a way that it goes beyond a value such as
          the journal serial start is bigger than the journal serial end, issues are expected
          for IXFR answers.
        _ notify is ignored on TCP  

20120709:
	YADIFA 1.0.1
		_ logging repeat compression is now by channel instead of global

	Fixes:
        _ fixed an issue where glibc whould assert if libgcc_s.so (libgcc_s.so.1) and libc.so (libc.so.6) where not
		  available inside the chrooted directory of YADIFA
		_ fixed an issue in the syslog module

	Known issues:
		_ on 32 bits architectures, the sig-validity-* fields are not properly copied from <main> to <zone>
		  as a workaround, set the sig-validity fields in each <zone> container in 32 bits architectures

		  ie:
			  sig-validity-interval 7
 			  sig-validity-regeneration 168
			  sig-validity-jitter 3600

20120625:
	YADIFA 1.0.0
		_ LTO support can be enabled with --enable-lto but this is not working with clang. LTO does not increase
		  the performance significally
		_ parallel processing of listening addresses can now be enabled.
		  It can be set using thread-count-by-address in the <main> section.
		  By default YADIFA will not use parallel processing as this feature has not been
		  as thoroughly tested as the single-thread processing model
		_ default parameters tuning
		_ fixes

20120530:
	YADIFA 1.0.0RC3
		_ the configuration parser now ignores undefined logger names and
		  report them with a warning
		_ syslog messages are now put in the name of "yadifad" instead of  the name used for the "syslog" channel
		_ syslog messages do not print the time from YADIFA anymore
		_ improved the steps involved in loading a locally cached slave zone
		_ zones are now loaded in background 
		_ man page yadifad-conf.man5 renamed into yadifad.conf.man5

	Fixes:
		_ AXFR/IXFR answers with the RA bit set are nolonger rejected as invalid
		_ YADIFA now answers to SIGINT again (shutdown)
		_ fixed an issue where obsolete AXFR files were not always being deleted
		_ fixed an issue occuring when both IPv4 and IPv6 were available to handle a notify
		_ fixed journal replay issue where some RRSIGs records were not properly removed
		_ fixed an issue occuring with IPv6 queries
		_ fixed an issue in the generation of a specific NSEC3 error answer
		_ fixed named query style layout

	Known issue:
		_ if the serial of a zone is changed in a way that it goes beyond a value such as
		  the journal serial start is bigger than the journal serial end, issues are expected
		  for IXFR answers.
		_ notify is ignored on TCP
		
20120328:
	YADIFA 1.0.0RC2
		_ fixed logging issue on work file creation error
		_ fixed an issue where IXFR queries could be rejected as being wrongly formatted
		_ fixed an issue in the query logging text
		_ enabled command line options ( -u uid -g gid -d )
	
20120319:
	YADIFA 1.0.0RC1

	Is a full functional authoritative name server:

		- works as primary or secondary name server
		- AXFR
		- IXFR
		- NOTIFY
		- NSUPDATE
		- TSIG
		- CLASSES:
			- IN
			- CH (just for version)
		- TYPES:
			- AAAA
			- CNAME
			- DNSKEY
			- DS
			- HINFO
			- MX
			- NAPTR
			- NS
			- NSEC3
			- NSEC3PARAM
			- NSEC
			- PTR
			- RRSIG
			- SOA
			- SRV
			- SSHFP
			- TXT
		- Automatic resigning
		- DNSSEC algorithms:
			- 5 (RSASHA1)
			- 7 (RSASHA1-NSEC3
		- ACL's
	

	KNOWN ISSUES:

		NSEC3:	_ cannot work with multiple NSEC3PARAM chains with mixed OPT-IN/OUT settings

			_ adding a new NSEC3 chain expects that the master sends the NSEC3PARAM first (it does not seems to be always the case)
				  We have a case where a master starts with 2 thousands NSEC3 opt-out records then adds 6 millions NSEC3 opt-in records but does not give the NSEC3PARAM record
				  first. The slave server rejects them all because it's unable to link them to a chain.  (This one has high priority)

		DNSSEC:	_ it is not allowed to change the zone security mode (unsecure, NSEC, or NSEC3).  Once the zone is loaded it keeps its security mode.

			_ dynamic updates of NSEC as well as NSEC3 records are refused

		QUIT:	the server will shutdown on the following conditions:

			_ detection of an impossible situation or an internal integrity issue (ie: for any reason the SOA has vanished from a zone)

			_ memory limit reached which prevents any more work

			_ ipc issue which prevent internal services communication

		ACL:	_ since the access control is set by zone and CHAOS class is not implemented as a configurable zone, it is not possible (yet) to specifically block CHAOS queries.

		-	many fixes 

	KNOWN ISSUE: NSEC3 slave zone replay fails.

20110706:

		-	answers to a notify from the master
		-	polls the (first) master on the masters list
		-	maintains the .axfr & .ix files (deletes the obsoletes ones)
		-	TSIG queries are checked
		-	Replays the zone journal on startup after the zone load (journaling)
		-	Answers IXFR queries (journaling)

		Operational:
		-	It works as a no dnssec name server
		-	No notifies to slave name servers
		-	daemon
		-	Answers AXFR queries with TSIG
		- 	nsupdate functionality (journaling)
		-	TSIG on client server side will be transmitted, but not checked

		First release internally of yadifad 20110524115500 GMT+1.

		Operational:
		-	It works as a no dnssec name server
		-	No notifies to slave name servers
		-	daemon
		-	Answers AXFR queries
		- 	The zone has SOA, NS A resource records.
		

20091224:
	YADIFA 0.2.0
		_	Answers AXFR queries
		_	ACL based on IP and TSIG (not all query types are ACL'ed yet)

20091104:
	YADIFA 0.1.0

		YADIFA is a work in progress. The main goal is to have an alternative for BIND or NSD.

		Version 0.1.0 is an authoritative server only. 

		It has no:
		-	AXFR/IXFR functionality
		-	dynupdate
		- 	support for NSEC
		- 	support for NSEC3
		-	caching mechanism
		- 	additional tools (eg.dig, dnssectools, drill,...)

		It has:
		-	a very fast way to give authoritative answer
		-	a very fast method for loading the database and checking the zone files

		This first release is to have a feeling how it works in an operational environment.
	
	TODO

		Everything what is not implemented, has to be implemented. Most of the code is there, but is not activated.

		No comformity tests has been done. (This of course is on the todo list)
