Dear all,

We are pleased to announce Net::DNS version 1.20

This release has:

• Reworked recursive resolving (initially to deal with a bugfix) and is now easier to understand (and maintain)
• Updated examples that use AAAA instead of A records.
• TSIG MAC representation changed to Base64 (like with dig)
• Updated IANA parameters
• Overall improvements in codebase and test scripts

Dear all,

We are pleased to announce the 1.12 release of Net::DNS::SEC.

This release has simplified (and thus more robust) support for the different version of Open & LibreSSL, including a fix for the future OpenSSL 3.0.0.

See also the CHANGES file.

Dear all,

We have a candidate for the upcoming 1.20 release of Net::DNS and the upcoming 1.12 release of Net::DNS::SEC.

The Net::DNS candidate has a single bugfix that addresses correctly caching IP’s for delegations in the Recurse.pm module.

Besides this bugfixes, this release has

• updated examples that use AAAA instead of A records.
• TSIG MAC representation changed to Base64 (like with dig)
• Updated IANA parameters
• Overall improvements in codebase and test scripts

The Net::DNS::SEC candidate contains simplified (and thus more robust) support for the different version of Open & LibreSSL, including a fix for the future OpenSSL 3.0.0.
Current thought is to support latest two LibreSSL releases.

Please review these candidates carefully. If no issues arise, the actual releases will follow Tuesday the 19th of March 2019.
