+This release improves DNS transport security and operational reliability, with
+safer DoH/DoH3 handling, enhanced forwarding configuration, and improved dnstap
+support. It also adds robustness improvements across file serving, secondary
+zones, transfers, rewrites, hosts handling, and error processing, while fixing
+several edge cases in DNS response handling.
