Hi,

from what I comprehend the current unbound syntax supports one root at a time, e.g. either ICANN roots or alt-roots such as OPENNIC, but not 2 roots in parallel. It seems currently not possible to have 2 root-hint files, 2 name . as auth-zone or 2 name . as forward-zone. To get alt-roots subdomains resolved alongside the ICANN setup is currently a bit cumbersome and a transfer of the alt-root to local is not feasible.

Not sure what the future of DNS holds but is seems that with blockchain and such there might be some traction on alt-root and thus I was wondering whether there is any plan to support alt-roots simultaneously, if such is technically viable and would make sense? Something along theses lines:

root-hints: "/file/path/to/icann_root.hints"
+
alt-root-hints: "/file/path/to/alt_root.hints"

and

auth-zone:
  name: .
  zonefile: "/file/path/to/icann_root"
+
auth-zone:
  alt-name: .
  zonefile: "/file/path/to/alt_root"

and

forward-zone:
  name: .
+
forward-zone:
  alt-name: .
