[Pdns-users] PowerDNS releases?

[Jason J. W. Williams]

Hi Bert,

That's great to hear. As to using it in production, we use it
extensively and quite reliably. Our biggest beef with PowerDNS is that
it takes some option/flag coaxing to compile cleanly on Gentoo and
Solaris.

BTW, what new features are slated for 2.9.21?
