StackExchange/dnscontrol v4.15.6 on GitHub

Hello DNS fans!

Apologies for the many releases this week.

This one fixes a bug with the MSDNS provider. If you don't use MSDNS, there's no reason to rush to upgrade.

I'm experimenting with Github's "pre-release" feature as a way to do more testing before releases are official. This release will be published but not marked "production" until after those tests are complete. I don't know how long that will take. There's a chance this release will be cancelled as I learn how this feature works.

Deprecation warnings

Warning

REV() will switch from RFC2317 to RFC4183 in v5.0. This is a breaking change. Warnings are output if your configuration is affected. No date has been announced for v5.0. See https://docs.dnscontrol.org/language-reference/top-level-functions/revcompat
MSDNS maintainer needed! Without a new volunteer, this DNS provider will lose support after April 2025. See #2878
NAMEDOTCOM and SOFTLAYER need maintainers! These providers have no maintainer. Maintainers respond to PRs and fix bugs in a timely manner, and try to stay on top of protocol changes.
get-certs/ACME support is frozen and will be removed without notice between now and July 2025. It has been unsupported since December 2022. If you don't use this feature, do not start. If you do use this feature, migrate ASAP. See discussion in issues/1400
