Subject: 1.3.07 is now stable
Message-ID: <20080110194943.DD8C3D7535C@hotaru.literati.org>

On December 25 (Christmas), I released MaraDNS 1.3.07.08.  This is a stable
release of MaraDNS; this is an update from MaraDNS 1.2, and includes a number
of new features, most notably BIND zone file support.

I have just uploaded this release to the Sourceforge download page, and
encourage people to download and use this release.

I no longer support MaraDNS 1.0 for anything except critical security bugs.
MaraDNS 1.2 will be supported for critical bug fixes until the end of 2010.
Also MaraDNS 1.0 support, including security fixes, will be dropped at the
end of 2010.  I have no plans to support MaraDNS 1.2 after 2010; by then
MaraDNS 2.0 will hopefully be released (It's one of my 2008 New Year's 
resolutions).

MaraDNS downloads are available here:

Sam,

Great news!  One quick question, do I need to uninstall the 1.2.xx version 
first?

Thanks again,

Just a follow-up to a previous post of mine. Was going to take another 
look at using maradns as a resolver/cache in place of dnscache but from 
the docs it doesn't look there has been any change in the above missing 
feature. Or am I missing something?

Thank you,
