The BIND 9.6-ESV branch will reach its End of Life on Jan 1st. There will be no further bug fixes of any kind and BIND 9.6-ESV-R11 will be our final release version on the 9.6 release train. As of January 31st the BIND 9.6 train will be deprecated.
This EOL date was announced on Dec 18th, 2012, ( https://www.isc.org/blogs/out-with-bind-9-7-and-in-with-bind-9-9/ ). We extended the original EOL date by six months. We recommend that you plan your upgrade to BIND 9.9.4 or higher. 9.9 is our current ESV (Extended Support Version), and will be supported for 3 more years. Additionally, when 9.10.0 is released in the beginning of 2014, 9.8.x will be retired 6 months later, in July, 2014. Anyone upgrading now is advised to skip over 9.8 and go directly to 9.9. Thanks and Happy & Safe Holidays to everyone! ISC Support Team
