Hello,

On February 1, 2019, there will be some major changes to DNS with regards to 
EDNS:

> A number of DNS software and service providers have announced that we will 
> all cease implementing DNS resolver workarounds to accommodate DNS 
> authoritative systems that don’t follow the EDNS protocol. Each vendor has 
> pledged to roll out this change in some version of their software by the 
> ‘Flag Day.’ 
[…] 
> Domains served by DNS servers that are not compliant with the standard will 
> not function reliably after February 1, 2019, and may become unavailable.
> 
> If your company’s DNS zones are served by non-compliant servers, your online 
> presence will slowly degrade or disappear as ISPs and other organizations 
> update their resolvers. When you update your own internal DNS resolvers to 
> versions that don’t implement workarounds, some sites and email servers may 
> become unreachable.

It turns out that freebsd.org is effected by this:

> This domain will face issues after the 2019 DNS flag day. It will work in 
> practice, BUT clients will experience delays when accessing this domain. We 
> recommend you request a fix from your domain administrator! You can refer 
> them to https://dnsflagday.net/ and technical report

Who is the person that should be looking at this for FreeBSD?
