-- Add support for HTTPS and SVCB record types. :gl:`#1132`
+- Support for HTTPS and SVCB record types has been added. (This does not
+ include ADDITIONAL section processing for these record types, only
+ basic support for RR type parsing and printing.) :gl:`#1132`

Feature Changes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-- ``dnssec-signzone`` is now able to retain signatures from inactive
- predecessor keys without introducing additional signatures from the successor
- key. This allows for a gradual replacement of RRSIGs as they reach expiry.
- :gl:`#1551`
+- When ``dnssec-signzone`` signs a zone using a successor key whose
+ predecessor is still published, it now only refreshes signatures for
+ RRsets which have an invalid signature, an expired signature, or a
+ signature which expires within the provided cycle interval. This
+ allows ``dnssec-signzone`` to gradually replace signatures in a zone
+ whose ZSK is being rolled over (similarly to what ``auto-dnssec
+ maintain;`` does). :gl:`#1551`
Bug Fixes
~~~~~~~~~
-- When following QNAME minimization, BIND could use a stale zonecut from cache
- to resolve the query, resulting in a non-minimized query. This has been
- fixed :gl:`#2665`
+- Stale data in the cache could cause ``named`` to send non-minimized
+ queries despite QNAME minimization being enabled. This has been fixed.
+ :gl:`#2665`
-- Migrate a single key to CSK when reconfiguring a zone to make use of
- 'dnssec-policy' :gl:`#2857`
+- When a DNSSEC-signed zone which only has a single signing key
+ available is migrated to ``dnssec-policy``, that key is now treated as
+ a Combined Signing Key (CSK). :gl:`#2857`
- A recent change to the internal memory structure of zone databases
- inadvertently neglected to update the MAPAPI value for ``map``-format
- zone files. This caused ``named`` to attempt to load files into memory
- that were no longer compatible, triggering an assertion failure on
- startup. The MAPAPI value has now been updated, so ``named`` will
- reject outdated files when encountering them. :gl:`#2872`
+ inadvertently neglected to update the MAPAPI value for zone files in
+ ``map`` format. This caused version 9.16.20 of ``named`` to attempt to
+ load files into memory that were no longer compatible, triggering an
