Hi all,

We're pleased announce the release of the PowerDNS Authoritative Server
version 3.4.7. This release fixes several bugs and has a bunch of
improvements onboard.

The biggest fixes are improved negative caching and preventing a crash
that could happen during the AXFR of a zone with many MX records of
different priorities.

Tarballs and packages are available on:
* https://downloads.powerdns.com/releases/
* Soon: https://www.monshouwer.eu/download/3rd_party/pdns/
   (RHEL/CentOS, with the usual huge thanks to Kees Monshouwer).

The changelog is produced below, a version with clickable links can be
found at [1].

* Ignore invalid/empty TKEY and TSIG records (Christian Hofstaedtler)
* Don't reply to truncated queries (Christian Hofstaedtler)
