- The "Google problem" has been fixed; when there is a chain of CNAME answers leading to an A answer, Deadwood uses the TTL for the CNAME or A answer with the lowest TTL to determine how long to cache the DNS reply
- Cache size is now determined from one's dwood2rc preferences, not from the file storing the cache.
- Logging revamped; raw printf statements mostly removed and verbose_level support added.
- DwTcp now has basic TCP buffering and works.
- Warnings when compiling in Ubuntu 8.10 with -Wall enabled removed
William Summers provided me with a patch to compile MaraDNS under OpenBSD last week; I finally integrated this patch in to the "HEAD branch" of MaraDNS and it can be seen in a snapshot I uploaded yesterday.
Milan Kupcevic has posted a patch to implement reading the dns_port variable in the zoneserver program, which I will look at next week sometime.
Well, never say never.
I am starting work on the Chortle font again. Basically, in Cleartype, the "p" looks a little weird in the Chortle font. I have added autohinted information to just the "p" letter and the font looks nicer when rendered with Microsoft ClearType at small sizes. Unfortunately, autohinting all of the letters makes the X-height inconsistent, so I might, one of these days, manually fix the hinting so Chortle looks nicer at small sizes on Linux systems (the hinting isn't as important when one is using ClearType).
