   Today we have released PowerDNS Recursor 5.1.7 and 5.2.5.

   These releases are maintenance releases that fix a few bugs and have a
   few improvements. The most important ones are:

     * If an RPZ hit produces a custom CNAME record, always produce the
       full resulting CNAME chain.
     * Names loaded by the zoneToCache[1] function fail to validate when
       also subject to recursive forwarding.

   There are also a few other bug fixes and improvements, please refer to
   the changelogs  (5.1.7[3] and 5.2.5[4]) for additional details.

   Please send us all feedback and issues you might have via the mailing
   list[5], or in case of a bug, via GitHub[6].

   The tarballs (5.1.7[8], 5.2.5[9]) (with signature files 5.1.7[11],
   5.2.5[12]) are available from our download server[13] and packages for
   several distributions are available from our repository[14].

   Recently we made changes to our Open Source End of Life policy. Older
   release trains are now supported for one year after the following major
   release. Consult the EOL policy[15] for more details.

   We are grateful to the PowerDNS community for the reporting of bugs,
   issues, feature requests, and especially to the submitters of fixes and
   implementations of features.
