Looks like BIND version 9 has been released, in case anyone wants to
try it.  Some of the new features I find interesting, from the README
file:
    - DNS Security
	    DNSSEC (signed zones)
	    TSIG (signed DNS requests)
    - IP version 6
	    Answers DNS queries on IPv6 sockets
	    IPv6 resource records (A6, DNAME, etc.)
	    Bitstring Labels
	    Experimental IPv6 Resolver Library

It requires ANSI C, POSIX, and pthread support.  Supposedly it does
work on NetBSD-current with the "unproven-threads" package Michael
Graff put together from the stuff Chris did.

P.S.  So when's Moria going to support IPv6 address assignments? :-)
