Development release of BIND 10: bind10-devel-20100917
We are pleased to announce the sixth development release of BIND 10.
This new release provides the initial implementations of NOTIFY
out and the b10-zonemgr secondary manager for keeping track of SOA
timers and other information necessary for BIND10 to act as a slave.
BIND 10 provides a C++ library for DNS (with python wrappers) and
several cooperating daemons for providing authoritative DNS service
(with SQLite3 backend and DNSSEC). It contains prototype code and
experimental interfaces. Later this year, we plan to provide another
data source backend and the first phase of the recursive caching
DNS server.
Documentation is included and also available via the BIND 10
website at http://bind10.isc.org/
The bind10-devel-20100917 source may be downloaded from:
ftp://ftp.isc.org/isc/bind10/devel-20100917/bind10-devel-20100917.tar.gz
A PGP signature of the distribution is at
ftp://ftp.isc.org/isc/bind10/devel-20100917/bind10-devel-20100917.tar.gz.sha512.asc
The signature was generated with the ISC public key, which is
available at https://www.isc.org/about/openpgp
Users and developers are encouraged to participate on the BIND 10
mailing lists:

Bugs may be reported as tickets via the developers website
(after logging into Trac):
http://bind10.isc.org/
A summary of the significant changes since the previous release
include (from the ChangeLog):
95. [doc] jreed
Add b10-zonemgr manual page. Update other docs to introduce
this secondary manager. (Trac #341, svn r2951)
95. [bug] jreed
bin/xfrout and bin/zonemgr: Fixed some stderr output.
(Trac #342, svn r2949)
94. [bug] jelte
bin/xfrout: Fixed a problem in xfrout where only 2 or 3 RRs
were used per DNS message in the xfrout stream.
(Trac #334, r2931)
93. [bug] jinmei
lib/datasrc: A DS query could crash the library (and therefore,
e.g. the authoritative server) if some RR of the same apex name
is stored in the hot spot cache. (Trac #307, svn r2923)
92. [func]* jelte
libdns_python (the python wrappers for libdns++) has been renamed
to pydnspp (Python DNS++). Programs and libraries that used
'import libdns_python' now need to use 'import pydnspp'.
(Trac #314, r2902)
91. [func]* jinmei
lib/cc: Use const pointers and const member functions for the API
as much as possible for safer operations. Basically this does
change the observable behavior, but some of the API were changed
in a backward incompatible manner. This change also involves more
copies, but at this moment the overhead is deemed acceptable.
(Trac #310, r2803)
90. [build] jinmei
(Darwin/Mac OS X specific) Specify DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH for tests and
experimental run under the source tree. Without this loadable
python modules refer to installation paths, which may confuse the
operation due to version mismatch or even trigger run time errors
due to missing libraries. (Trac #313, r2782)
89. [build] jinmei
Generate b10-config.db for tests at build time so that the source
tree does not have to be writable. (Trac #315, r2776)
88. [func] jelte
Blocking reads on the msgq command channel now have a timeout
(defaults to 4 seconds, modifiable as needed by modules).
Because of this, modules will no longer block indefinitely
if they are waiting for a message that is not sent for whatever
reason. (Trac #296, r2761)
87. [func] zhanglikun
lib/python/isc/notifyout: Add the feature of notify-out, when
zone axfr/ixfr finishing, the server will notify its slaves.
(Trac #289, svn r2737)
86. [func] jerry
bin/zonemgr: Added zone manager module. The zone manager is one
of the co-operating processes of BIND10, which keeps track of
timers and other information necessary for BIND10 to act as a
slave. (Trac #215, svn r2737)
85. [build]* jinmei
Build programs using dynamic link by default. A new configure
option --enable-static-link is provided to force static link for
executable programs. Statically linked programs can be run on a
debugger more easily and would be convenient for developers.
(Trac #309, svn r2723)
We look forward to hearing from you,
Jeremy C. Reed
