Hello!

We are proud to announce version 4.4.0 of the Authoritative Server.

This release drops GSS/TSIG support, please see PowerDNS Security
Advisory 2020-06 <=20
https://doc.powerdns.com/authoritative/security-advisories/powerdns-advisor=
y-2020-06.html
>.

Version 4.4.0 brings a bunch of exciting changes:

* the LMDB backend now supports long record content, making it
production ready for everybody
* the SVCB and HTTPS record types are supported, with limited
additional processing
* transaction handling in the 2136 handler and the HTTP API was again
improved a lot, avoiding various spurious issues users may have noticed
if they do a lot of changes
* a new setting (consistent-backends) offers a roughly 30% speedup,
subject to conditions
* we finally emit Prometheus metrics!

Authoritative 4.3.x was the last release branch with support for
CentOS/RHEL 6. Problems running Authoritative 4.4.x on CentOS/RHEL 6
will not be treated as bugs by us.

We want to specifically thank Robin Geuze, Kees Monshouwer, Mischan
Toosarani-Hausberger, Chris Hofstaedtler, and Kevin Fleming for their
contributions to this release. We are also grateful to all other
reporters of bugs, issues, feature requests, and submitters of smaller
fixes and features.

Please make sure to read the Upgrade Notes before upgrading. <=20
