Because of a very very generous donation from Nicholas Bamber, I was
able to release MaraDNS 1.4.07 today. This is MaraDNS 1.4.06 with six
different bug fixes backported from MaraDNS 2.0:

    A typo fix for fetchzone

    AXFR-over-UDP packets are now correctly marked "truncated"

    It is now possible to have the '/' in hostnames

    Fix for Debian bug #607739: Hostname shown when complaining about
DDIP issues

    AngelD's issue with zone transfers when there are a lot of FQDN4
records fixed.

    Karim's issue with '/read' directive fixed

Please note that this is a legacy version of MaraDNS and is only for
users of MaraDNS 1.x who are not ready to update to MaraDNS 2.0 yet.

It can be downloaded here:

Deadwood roadmap

Because of Nicholas' generous donation, I also plan to make a Deadwood
3.1 branch which will fully utilize caching of dangling CNAME records.
Fixing this issue with Deadwood will help Deadwood more quickly
resolve names in "Akamai hell" -- names which require chasing a lot of
CNAME records to resolve.
