d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas GustafssonMajor changes in version 1.2:

d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson* New encoding converters for `BRACE' and `LACE' are implemented.
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson* New normalize schemes `ja-compose-voiced-sound', 'ja-kana-fullwidth'
40f53fa8d9c6a4fc38c0014495e7a42b08f52481David Lawrence and 'ja-alnum-halfwidth' introduced.

d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson* mDN Wrapper is thoroughly overhauled.
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson - Log level can be specified by using GUI (or directly editing the
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson registry Software\JPNIC\MDN\LogLevel). Note that fine grain
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson control over logging is supported only by the MDN library (libmdn).
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson Log output from mDN Wrapper itself can be turned on or off, but
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson no log level support.
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson - Log file can also specified.
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson - Some serious bugs are fixed, including incorrect program-side
eefe56c8b367d1e54361b0c55f9db9d9468a0d6aAndreas Gustafsson encoding (codeset) detection.
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson - Advanced configuration feature implemented. Now DNS encoding and
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson normalization can be customizable. Also you can configure which
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson winsock DLL to be wrapped.
eefe56c8b367d1e54361b0c55f9db9d9468a0d6aAndreas Gustafsson
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson* dnsproxy and mDN Wrapper now correctly accept and process client-
eefe56c8b367d1e54361b0c55f9db9d9468a0d6aAndreas Gustafsson supplied domain names encoded in the alternate encoding. Previously
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson worked correctly only when the alternate encoding happened to be the
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson same as the server encoding.
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson* 8bit-through patch for BIND-8.2.2-P5 is replaced by a new patch
eefe56c8b367d1e54361b0c55f9db9d9468a0d6aAndreas Gustafsson for BIND-8.2.2-P7.
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson* A buffer overrun bug in RACE converter is fixed.

d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas GustafssonMajor changes in version 1.1:
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson* Log level of dnsproxy can be specified with ``log-level'' entry.
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson available levels are `none', `fatal', `warning' and `trace'. See
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson dnsproxy.8 or dnsproxy.conf.sample for details.
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson* Sending SIGHUP to dnsproxy causes it to close and re-open the log file.
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson Useful for log file turnover.
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson* If log file is not specified, dnsproxy uses the default log file
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson /tmp/dnsproxy.log. Previously behavior was that no logging was done
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson at all, conflicting with what document says.
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson* dnsproxy won't terminate even if recvfrom() returns unexpected
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson errors such as `connection refused (ECONNREFUSED)'. On Linux, it is
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson reported that it sometimes returns this error even for
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson connection-less (ie UDP) sockets.
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson* DNS message ID allocation/release bugs in dnsproxy are fixed.
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson Previously dnsproxy seems to stop working if it receives more than
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson 4096 requests in 10 minutes.
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson* RACE conversion bug is fixed. Previously, if the prefix part contains
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson any uppercase letters (such as "Bq--"), it is not recognized as a
d49d75f5073294d798aa500728116309398bb535Andreas Gustafsson RACE prefix.
