4613. [func] By default, the maximum size of a zone journal file
is now twice the size of the zone's contents (there
is little benefit to a journal larger than this).
This can be overridden by setting "max-journal-size"
to "unlimited" or to an explicit value up to 2G.
Thanks to Tony Finch. [RT #38324]
4610. [func] The "new-zones-directory" option specifies the
location of NZF or NZD files for storing
configuration of zones added by "rndc addzone".
Thanks to Petr Menšík. [RT #44853]
4579. [func] Logging channels and dnstap output files can now
be configured with a "suffix" option, set to
either "increment" or "timestamp", indicating
whether to use incrementing numbers or timestamps
as the file suffix when rolling over a log file.
[RT #42838]
4572. [func] The "dnstap-output" option can now take "size" and
"versions" parameters to indicate the maximum size
a dnstap log file can grow before rolling to a new
file, and how many old files to retain. [RT #44502]
4549. [func] Added support for the EDNS TCP Keepalive option
(RFC 7828). [RT #42126]
4548. [func] Added support for the EDNS Padding option (RFC 7830).
[RT #42094]
4518. [func] The "print-time" option in the logging configuration
can now take arguments "local", "iso8601" or
"iso8601-utc" to indicate the format in which the
date and time should be logged. For backward
compatibility, "yes" is a synonym for "local".
[RT #42585]
4503. [cleanup] "make uninstall" now removes file installed by
BIND. (This currently excludes Python files
due to lack of support in setup.py.) [RT #42912]
no-auth and no-auth-recursive which suppress
adding the NS records to the authority section
as well as the associated address records for the
nameservers. [RT #42005]
to provide feedback to the trust-anchor administrators
about how key rollovers are progressing as per

[RT #40583]
4380. [experimental] Added a "zone-directory" option to "catalog-zones"
syntax, allowing local masterfiles for slaves
that are provisioned by catalog zones to be stored
in a directory other than the server's working
directory. [RT #42527]
provisioning secondary servers in which a list of
zones to be served is stored in a DNS zone and can
be propagated to slaves via AXFR/IXFR. [RT #41581]
4375. [func] Add support for automatic reallocation of isc_buffer
to isc_buffer_put* functions. [RT #42394]
4371. [func] New "minimal-any" option reduces the size of UDP
responses for qtype ANY by returning a single
arbitrarily selected RRset instead of all RRsets.
Thanks to Tony Finch. [RT #41615]
