-adns (0.2) experimental; urgency=low
+adns (0.8) BETA; urgency=medium
+
+ Bugfixes:
+ * Race near adns_beforeselect which could cause infinite timeout fixed
+ (it's now less agressive, and will more often return a zero timeout.)
+ * Fixed infrequent race causing assertion failure in adns__tcp_broken
+ `ads->tcpstate == server_connecting || ads->tcpstate == server_ok'.
+ * Spurious `server failure on unidentifiable query' warning suppressed.
+ * If we get a referral, don't also always complain falsely about RD==0.
+ * adnslogres: cast chars to unsigned char before using ctype.h macros.
+ * In _beforeselect, global failure now means zero timeout, and in
+ tcp_events, really never try to do anything with the TCP connection if
+ act is zero. This might possibly cause an infinite delay (ie, lockup)
+ if things go badly wrong *and* a really unlikely race happens.
+ * Test suite `lines of syscall left' value is correct; !0 is failure.
Portability fixes:
+ * install-sh (from autoconf 2.12 Debian r13) included.
+ * adnslogres: do not call equivalent of printf("%.*s",0,(char*)0).
+
+ Documentation improvements:
+ * Security/performance note added, about local nameservers and DNSSEC.
+ * Documented that adns_rr_info _rr_hostaddr ( ) for address list
+ means permanent failure, and ? means temporary failure.
+ * Typo (*now for now in _beforeselect description) in adns.h fixed.
+
+ Changes to produce more defensive code:
+ * In adns_wait, assert that the timeout is not infinite.
+ * Make qu->id start out as -2 when initially allocated.

+
+adns (0.7) BETA; urgency=medium
+
+ * New adns_submit_reverse_any for eg RBL lookups, and corresponding
+ option to adnshost.
+ * README updated (from www home page).
+
+ * In answers, quote all except alphanums and - _ / + (and document).
+ * Don't reject specials in cnames even without adns_qf_quotefail_cname.
+ * Better checking of long domain names and labels in queries.
+ * answer->owner may be null on error. Documented, and adnshost copes.
+ * Better reporting of unexpected or weird replies from nameserver.
+ * Add test case for recursion (infinite loop) domain compression.

+
+adns (0.6) BETA; urgency=high
+
+ Core library bugfixes:
+ * Avoid infinite timeouts, causing lockup, when they should be zero !
+ * TCP handling revamped (avoids undefined behaviour due to reentrancy).
+ * Do not fail assertion if _qf_owner, _qf_search, domain ends in `.'.
+ * Many memory leaks fixed.
+
+ Cool new utility:
+ * adnsresfilter is like `cat' but converts addresses to names without
+ delaying the output. Pipe `netstat -n', `tcpdump -ln', etc. into it.
+
+ Test and client program bug and portability fixes:
+ * Dynamic library building works properly.
+ * adnshost prints somewhat better messages about some wrong usages.
+ * Include <stdlib.h> and <sys/types.h> in adnshost.h.
+ * adnslogres: parsing and error checking improved (Tony Finch).
+ * Regression tests can cope with zero-length reads.
+ * Regression tests check for memory leaks.
+ * adnstest copes with empty query type list.
+ * adnstest uninitialised memory bug fixed.
+
+ General improvements
+ * Better control of adnshost output and error messages (new -F options).
+ * New adns_if_logpid option (functionality suggested by Tony Finch).
+ * New fanftest test program from Tony Finch (ignored by `make install').
+ * Reads /etc/resolv-adns.conf if it exists.
+ * Declare flags parameters as enums again, not ints.
+
+ -- Ian Jackson <ian@davenant.greenend.org.uk> Wed, 24 Nov 1999 17:13:03 +0000
+
+adns (0.5) unstable; urgency=high
+
+ New features:
+ * adnslogres, ~100x faster replacement for Apache logresolve;
+ Thanks to Tony Finch for the program and the performance figure.
+ * Internal consistency checking with assert if right options set.
+ * adns_wait_poll function like adns_wait but uses poll, not select.
+ * adns_reverse_submit function for easy in-addr queries.
+ * adns_errtypeabbrev funcion for getting eg "permfail" from _s_nodata.
+ * adnshost utility for scripts and the like (rather alpha).
+
+ Incompatible changes:
+ * RRs with mailboxes never rejected due to strange chars if _raw.
+ * Lack of a mailbox produces `.' not `<>'.
+ * Better usage messages (and no default query domain) for adnstest.
+ * Return EAGAIN from _check instead of EWOULDBLOCK.
+ * adns_rr_info on _r_mx etc. shows status type abbrev and status number.
+
+ Bugfixes:
+ * Do not invoke __autosys indirectly from __procdgram (result: coredump
+ usually in memmove, unless adns_if_noautosys was used).
+ * Do not scramble innards when a query on the output queue is cancelled.
+ * Do not close tcp socket twice.
+ * Mailboxes containing spaces in their names are quoted.
+ * Give ESRCH, not EAGAIN, if _check called with no queries outstanding.
+ * adns_rr_hostaddr naddrs is -1 on temporary failure (as documented).
+ * Reject TXT RRs with no strings.
+ * Correct error messages for qname CNAME foo, foo CNAME bar.
+ * adns_processany actually does something.
+ * Fixed typos in adns.h.
+
+ General improvements:
+ * Promise not to change fds in adns_beforepoll (if now is specified).
+ * Improved textual error string for _s_prohibitedcname.
+ * New comment in adns_processany and return 0 (not r which is 0).
+ * Documentation of resolv.conf directives and options, and of environment
+ variables understood, in adns.h
+ * Regression test scripts set EF_DISABLE_BANNER (for Electric Fence).
+
+ Portability and build improvements:
+ * Give install the '-c' flag (otherwise some delete the original !).
+ * Do not remove top-level Makefile on `make clean'.
+ * Don't complain so much about poll(2) tests if not available.
+ * Do not give -u 0 -g 0 options to install.
+ * Remove trailing , from some enums in adns.h.
+ * Dynamically linked clients now made with -l, so as to avoid rpath.
+ * Do not use $^ in make rules (should help with non-GNU make).
+ * Declare flags parameters as ints not enums because C++ is crap.

+
+adns (0.4) unstable; urgency=high
+
+ General important bugfixes:
+ * make _qf_owner work if _qf_search not specified, and test it (oops!)
+ * ads->configerrno now initialised (in setup.c).
+ * timercmp(,,<=) doesn't work - use !timercmp(,,>).
+ * Changed memory semantics of internal queries to fix bugs.
+ * Restarting a TCP-using query (eg due to CNAME) doesn't abort.
+
+ Fixes for handling of broken kinds of reply:
+ * Only accept a reply from the subset of servers we sent the query.
+ * Ignore CNAME(s) in answer after RR(s) (and test).
+
+ Other bugfixes and improvements:
+ * adns_s_systemfail is in table of errors (for eg adns_strerror).
+ * Do not ship config.cache, Makefile, etc.
+ * Improvements to install instructions, TODO, etc.
+ * Regression tests compile on systems without poll(2).
+ * Do not install adnstest_s.
+ * _submit returns ENOSYS, not adns_s_unknownquery; documented, tested.
+ * <adns.h> includes <sys/types.h>, <sys/time.h>, <unistd.h>.

+
+adns (0.3) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ Incompatible changes:
+ * Low adns_status values (below adns_s_max_tempfail) renumbered to make
+ room for future locally-induced and locally-detected errors.
+ * Event loop functions for use by select(2) renamed and tidied up.
+
+ Features / improvements:
+ * New adns_errabbrev() for getting status abbreviation strings.
+ * regress/checkall prints summary list of failed tests, if any.
+ * Event loop functions for poll(2), and some raw variants.
+ * adnstest has ability to use poll(2), and user can set initflags.
+ * checkall prints passed list as well as failed list, if any failed.
+ * You can iterate over outstanding queries (but only once at a time).
+
+ Bugfixes:
+ * Non-RFC822 mailbox `domain' formatting now works, and clarified.
+ * Rejection of bad characters in domains (without quoteok) works.
+ * Clean up parents from adns->childw (otherwise would abort/segfault).
+ * In adnstest, allocate enough space for, and terminate, query types.
+ * In adnstest, don't print errno values as adns_status values.
+
+ * Added TODO file.
+ * Made adnstest.c test context pointers.

+
+adns (0.2) experimental; urgency=low
+
+ Portability fixes for compilation on various platforms:
* Include <sys/socket.h> and <netinet/in.h> in files with <arpa/inet.h>.
* Don't use GCC union assignment feature (.rrs=0 => .rrs.untyped=0).
* Explictly cast things to [const] struct sockaddr* in syscall args.
* Check whether we need -lsocket.
+ * Include <sys/times.h> in a few more files.
+ * Include <unistd.h> and <sys/time.h> for select.
+ * Look for inet_aton and inet_ntoa (in -lnsl and -lsocket).
+ * LDLIBS removed from dependency lists (some makes don't support this).
+ * An `ambiguous else' warning from some compilers in types.c is removed.
+
+ Other changes:
+ * Added COPYING (copy of the GPL).
+ * Regression test failure output improved.
+ * Missing targets in regress/Makefile.in added.
+ * Regression test doesn't rely on value of fcntl flags eg O_NONBLOCK.
