+  <para>
+    Until BIND 9.12, new feature development releases were tagged
+    as "alpha" and "beta", leading up to the first stable release
+    for a given development branch, which always ended in ".0".
+    More recently, BIND adopted the "odd-unstable/even-stable"
+    release numbering convention. There will be no "alpha" or "beta"
+    releases in the 9.15 branch, only increasing version numbers.
+    So, for example, what would previously have been called 9.15.0a1,
+    9.15.0a2, 9.15.0b1, and so on, will instead be called 9.15.0,
+    9.15.1, 9.15.2, etc.
+  </para>
+  <para>
+    The first stable release from this development branch will be
+    renamed as 9.16.0. Thereafter, maintenance releases will continue
+    on the 9.16 branch, while unstable feature development proceeds in
+    9.17.

+    To build on UNIX-like systems, BIND requires support for POSIX.1c
+    threads (IEEE Std 1003.1c-1995), the Advanced Sockets API for
+    IPv6 (RFC 3542), and standard atomic operations provided by the
+    C compiler.

+    The OpenSSL cryptography library must be available for the target
+    platform.  A PKCS#11 provider can be used instead for Public Key
+    cryptography (i.e., DNSSEC signing and validation), but OpenSSL is
+    still required for general cryptography operations such as hashing
+    and random number generation.

+    file that is included in the source distribution of BIND 9.  If your
+    compiler and system libraries provide the above features, BIND 9
+    should compile and run. If that isn't the case, the BIND
+    development team will generally accept patches that add support
+    for systems that are still supported by their respective vendors.

-      BIND 9.15 is an unstable development release of BIND.
-      This document summarizes new features and functional changes that

-      updated with additional features added and bugs fixed.

-    <para>
-      Until BIND 9.12, new feature development releases were tagged
-      as "alpha" and "beta", leading up to the first stable release
-      for a given development branch, which always ended in ".0".
-      More recently, BIND adopted the "odd-unstable/even-stable"
-      release numbering convention. There will be no "alpha" or "beta"
-      releases in the 9.15 branch, only increasing version numbers.
-      So, for example, what would previously have been called 9.15.0a1,
-      9.15.0a2, 9.15.0b1, and so on, will instead be called 9.15.0,
-      9.15.1, 9.15.2, etc.
-    </para>
-    <para>
-      The first stable release from this development branch will be
-      renamed as 9.16.0. Thereafter, maintenance releases will continue
-      on the 9.16 branch, while unstable feature development proceeds in
-      9.17.
