Hello,

in line with out deprecation policy, I am notifying the mailing list about our 
preliminary
intent to deprecate the 'dnssec-must-be-secure' option. The option will be 
marked as
deprecated (causing warning from named-checkconf) in BIND 9.18 and 9.20 and
it will be removed in BIND 9.21+ when the next development cycle starts next 
year.

The 'dnssec-must-be-secured' description from the ARM:

>    This specifies hierarchies which must be or may not be secure (signed and
>    validated). If ``yes``, then :iscman:`named` only accepts answers if
>    they are secure. If ``no``, then normal DNSSEC validation applies,
>    allowing insecure answers to be accepted. The specified domain
>    must be defined as a trust anchor, for instance in a :any:`trust-anchors`
>    statement, or ``dnssec-validation auto`` must be active.
> 

In BIND 9.21:

1. Using dnssec-must-be-secure option in named.conf will be now a fatal error

In BIND 9.18 and BIND 9.20:

1. Using dnssec-must-be-secure option in named.conf will issue a deprecation 
warning

This is tracked under https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/-/issues/4263

Thanks.
