First, if you downloaded pdns-recursor.tar.bz2 already, you need to do so
again, it changed in important ways.

This tarball is currently being rolled out in production and there are a few
(small) nits. However, the version that is currently online on
http://svn.powerdns.com/pdns-recursor.tar.bz2 (which is a lot bigger, 102kb
because of FreeBSD issues) is known to be the best pdns recursor released
*ever*

So, if you currently run the pdns recursor, this version should be lots
better than what you are running now.

If you are currently *happily* running something else, you are probably
better off waiting a day or two.

If you are currently running something else but it has shown issues, then
this tarball should be a good bet.

I'll do a bells-and-whistles release somewhere this week, with freshmeat and
all.

I hope this clarifies the nature of this separate release enough.
