Today, we are releasing version 5.1.0-alpha1 of the PowerDNS
Authoritative Server. It contains many small new features and
improvements, as well as the unavoidable bug fixes.

Please test it and help us make the final 5.1.0 release a success!

A detailed list of changes can be found in the [1]changelog.

Please make sure to read the [2]Upgrade Notes before upgrading.

The [3]tarball and its [4]signature are available at
[5]downloads.powerdns.com. Packages for various distributions are
available from [6]repo.powerdns.com.

We are looking forward to your feedback on this pre-release. Please
send us all feedback and issues you might have via the [7]mailing list,
or in case of a bug, via [8]GitHub.

Note that per our [9]End of life policy, the release of the final 5.1.0
version will mark the end of support for version 4.8.
