We advise users to prepare for these changes sooner rather than later to make it easier to upgrade to
newer versions when they are released.

* Users of :ref:`control-sockets` API need to terminate each command sent to resolver with newline
character (ASCII ``\n``). Correct usage: ``cache.stats()\n``.
Newline terminated commands are accepted by all resolver versions >= 1.0.0.
* DoH served with http module :ref:`DNS-over-HTTP (DoH) <mod-http-doh>` will be marked as legacy
and won't receive any more bugfixes. A more reliable and scalable DoH module will be available
instead. The new DoH module will only support HTTP/2 over TLS.
+* New releases since Octomer 2020 will contain changes for
+ `DNS Flag Day 2020 <https://dnsflagday.net/2020/>`_. Please double-check your firewall,
+ it has to allow DNS traffic on UDP and also TCP port 53.
