+Notes for BIND 9.16.7
+---------------------
+
+New Features
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Add a new ``rndc`` command, ``rndc dnssec -checkds``, which signals to
+  ``named`` that a DS record for a given zone or key has been published
+  or withdrawn from the parent. This command replaces the time-based
+  ``parent-registration-delay`` configuration option. :gl:`#1613`
+
+- Log when ``named`` adds a CDS/CDNSKEY to the zone. :gl:`#1748`
+
+Bug Fixes
+~~~~~~~~~
+
+- In rare circumstances, ``named`` would exit with an assertion failure
+  when the number of nodes stored in the red-black tree exceeded the
+  maximum allowed size of the internal hash table. :gl:`#2104`
+
+- Silence spurious system log messages for an EPROTO(71) error code that
+  was seen on older operating systems, where unhandled ICMPv6 errors
+  resulted in a generic protocol error being returned instead of a more
+  specific error code. :gl:`#1928`
+
+- With query name minimization enabled, ``named`` failed to resolve
+  ``ip6.arpa.`` names that had extra labels to the left of the IPv6
+  part. For example, when ``named`` attempted query name minimization on
+  a name like ``A.B.1.2.3.4.(...).ip6.arpa.``, it stopped at the
+  leftmost IPv6 label, i.e. ``1.2.3.4.(...).ip6.arpa.``, without
+  considering the extra labels (``A.B``). That caused a query loop when
+  resolving the name: if ``named`` received NXDOMAIN answers, then the
+  same query was repeatedly sent until the number of queries sent
+  reached the value of the ``max-recursion-queries`` configuration
+  option. :gl:`#1847`
+
+- Parsing of LOC records was made more strict by rejecting a sole period
+  (``.``) and/or ``m`` as a value. These changes prevent zone files
+  using such values from being loaded. Handling of negative altitudes
+  which are not integers was also corrected. :gl:`#2074`
+
+- Several problems found by `OSS-Fuzz`_ were fixed. (None of these are
+  security issues.) :gl:`!3953` :gl:`!3975`
+
+Known Issues
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- There are no new known issues with this release. See :ref:`above
+  <relnotes_known_issues>` for a list of all known issues affecting this
+  BIND 9 branch.
