+BIND version 9 is a major rewrite of nearly all aspects of the underlying BIND
+architecture. Some of the important features of BIND 9 are:
+
+DNS Security: DNSSEC (signed zones), TSIG (signed DNS requests)
+IP version 6: Answers DNS queries on IPv6 sockets, IPv6 resource records (AAAA)
+ Experimental IPv6 Resolver Library
+DNS Protocol Enhancements: IXFR, DDNS, Notify, EDNS0
+ Improved standards conformance
+Views: One server process can provide multiple "views" of the DNS namespace,
+ e.g. an "inside" view to certain clients, and an "outside" view to others.
+Multiprocessor Support
+
+See the CHANGES file for more information on new features.
