No, the current stable release is 9.16. The "primary" and "secondary"
keywords were added in 9.12.

Wow. This topic has generated a lot of comment.
We at ISC decided in 2017 to provide aliases for the master/slave terminology
in BIND so users who don’t wish to use those terms don’t have to. It was not a
burden to make this change in the source code.
Back when we made that initial change, I

I just got into a disagreement with a couple of people on this. I’m sure this
won’t be much different.
My feeling is that we’re dealing with software and things here and not people.
A Master is simply an authoritative source in this context. It has nothing to
do with enslaving human beings.

Completely aside from the topic at hand, I often like to think that

electronics, programming, whatever has piqued my interest for several

After I feel I have mastered DNS and BIND after slaving over the docs and

How will I be able to master anything technical anymore? Should I just
stop trying?

I sense an RFC has already dictated primary and secondary but, if not and we're
going to go to the trouble of renaming something, let's name it right such as
"source" and "copy".

My 2 cents...
The "master" nomenclature is appropriate from a *data*dependency*
standpoint. The "master" holds the "master copy" of the zone contents (
https://www.collinsdictionary.com/us/dictionary/english/master-copy). All
other copies are duplicates of that.
Of course I could, but I do not feel like the effort to change
nomenclature is either beneficial or worth taking for granted the
requests of some people on Twitter - as the slave to peer authority I am
- given how much it affects documentation, code, comments, general
environment of the project
Some servers already do

I concur with this. I'm still fairly new to BIND and DNS myself. I
maintain 7 name servers (3 internal, 4 external) and master does signify
to me that this is the server in control of the zone files for the other
ones in that pool. The slaves are pretty much that to me, they take the
zone files
The terminology is fairly misleading, as in the slave is not doing the
work on-behalf of or instruction of the the master. But there is ways
for the master to influence the slaves; such as "allow-transfer".
I don't see the big issue with making a terminology change in this case.

Hi Brett,
BIND 9 already uses primary/secondary as keywords and we are actively
working on updating BIND 9 to match the canon defined in RFC 8499.
You can find the latest documentation from the BIND 9 development branch
here: https://bind9.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
Cheers,
Ondrej
