4785.	[func]		The hmac-md5 algorithm is no longer recommended for
			use with RNDC keys. For compatibility reasons, it
			it is still the default algorithm in rndc-confgen,
			but this will be changed to hmac-sha256 in a future
			release. [RT #42272]

4784.	[func]		The use of dnssec-keygen to generate HMAC keys is
			deprecated in favor of tsig-keygen.  dnssec-keygen
			will print a warning when used for this purpose.
			All HMAC algorithms will be removed from
			dnssec-keygen in a future release. [RT #42272]

4773.	[doc]		Fixed generating Doxygen documentation for functions
			annotated using certain macros.  Miscellaneous
			Doxygen-related cleanups. [RT #46276]

4765.   [bug]           Address potential INSIST in dnssec-cds. [RT #46150]

4757.   [func]          New "dnssec-cds" command creates a new parent DS
                        RRset based on CDS or CDNSKEY RRsets found in
                        a child zone, and generates either a dsset file
                        or stream of nsupdate commands to update the
                        parent. Thanks to Tony Finch. [RT #46090]

4751.	[func]		"dnssec-signzone -S" can now automatically add parent
			synchronization records (CDS and CDNSKEY) according
			to key metadata set using the -Psync and -Dsync
			options to dnssec-keygen and dnssec-settime.
			[RT #46149]

4724.	[func]		By default, BIND now uses the random number
			functions provided by the crypto library (i.e.,
			OpenSSL or a PKCS#11 provider) as a source of
			randomness rather than /dev/random.  This is
			suitable for virtual machine environments
			which have limited entropy pools and lack
			hardware random number generators.

			This can be overridden by specifying another
			entropy source via the "random-device" option
			in named.conf, or via the -r command line option;
			however, for functions requiring full cryptographic
			strength, such as DNSSEC key generation, this
			cannot be overridden. In particular, the -r
			command line option no longer has any effect on
			dnssec-keygen.

			This can be disabled by building with
			"configure --disable-crypto-rand".

4722.	[cleanup]	Clean up uses of strcpy() and strcat() in favor of
			strlcpy() and strlcat() for safety. [RT #45981]

4721.	[func]		'dnssec-signzone -x' and 'dnssec-dnskey-kskonly'
			options now apply to CDNSKEY and DS records as well
			as DNSKEY. Thanks to Tony Finch. [RT #45689]

4708.   [cleanup]       Legacy Windows builds (i.e. for XP and earlier)
                        are no longer supported. [RT #45186]

4707.	[func]		The lightweight resolver daemon and library (lwresd
			and liblwres) have been removed. [RT #45186]

4706.	[func]		Code implementing name server query processing has
			been moved from bin/named to a new library "libns".
			Functions remaining in bin/named are now prefixed
			with "named_" rather than "ns_".  This will make it
			easier to write unit tests for name server code, or
			link name server functionality into new tools.
			[RT #45186]

4594.	[func]		dnssec-keygen no longer uses RSASHA1 by default;
			the signing algorithm must be specified on
			the command line with the "-a" option.  Signing
			scripts that rely on the existing default behavior
			will break; use "dnssec-keygen -a RSASHA1" to
			repair them. (The goal of this change is to make
			it easier to find scripts using RSASHA1 so they
			can be changed in the event of that algorithm
			being deprecated in the future.) [RT #44755]

4686.	[bug]		dnssec-settime -p could print a bogus warning about
			key deletion scheduled before its inactivation when a
			key had an inactivation date set but no deletion date
			set. [RT #45807]

4685.	[bug]		dnssec-settime incorrectly calculated publication and
			activation dates for a successor key. [RT #45806]
