BIND 10

BIND 10 is the next generation of BIND, the most widely-used DNS server on the Internet. BIND 10 is a five year development project, beginning year three on 2011-04-01. Developmental releases are made every 6 weeks, with an expected release of a production-ready authoritative server in November 2011, and a production-ready recursive resolver in March 2012. The code works for both authoritative and recursive DNS today.
