  11 New in version 0.7
  12 ==================
  13
  14 STDIN can now also be an input source if
  15   1, filename '-' is used when doing simple filtering.
  16   2, filename '-' is stated as file with the 'zonefile' directive in
  17      the filter configuration file (-F).
  18   3, No zonefile is specified in the filter configuration file (-F).
  19
  20 -I switch fixed
  21
  22
  23 New in version 0.6
  24 ==================
  25
  26 A security problem existed as A-records in "forbidden" zones could be
  27 sneaked in with MX/PTR/NS-records when specifiying ip as well. Now
  28 these 'x'-fields are filtered equally as fqdn:s when specified along
  29 with 'ip'-fields, i.e. implicit A-record.
  30
  31 -x switch added to exit program with exitcode instead of 0. This enables
  32 shellscripts and Makefiles to determine if errors occured or not.
  33
  34 -q switch documented.
  35
  36 -v switch removed as it was not used.
  37
  38 hostname parts and fqdn:s now allowed to be stated in upper case.
  39
  40
  41 New in version 0.5
  42 ==================
  43 Tiny cosmetic fix
  44
  45
  46 New in version 0.4
  47 ==================
  48
  49 Switch -r now just relaxes on 'root' records, i.e. fqdn == empty == root.
  50
  51 Switch -R now relaxes on 'mname', 'p' and 'rdata' being empty.
  52   Valid but with limited value.
  53
  54 Switch -i now relaxes on empty 'ip'-values. Does not generate any record.
  55   Really silly.
  56
  57 Totally empty records are also validated now. (i.e. max(tokens, mandatory))
  58
  59 :-records are now validated. Record type must not be 2 (NS), 5 (CNAME),
  60   6 (SOA), 12 (PTR), 15 (MX), or 252 (AXFR).
  61
  62 File include is now possible in filter files like this:
  63
  64         deny    file:/etc/zones/localzones.txt
  65
  66    or even
  67
  68         zonefile  file:/etc/zones/zonefiles.txt
  69
  70    (Note that inclusion of a file is initiated when a value starts with 'file:'
  71     and the part after this prefix is used as filename. This part is also
  72     used as a key to cache the content read, so multiple inclusions of the same
  73     file is not read from disk during a _single_ valtz-round. This is only
  74     applicable when globbing with -F,
  75     e.g. valtz -F /etc/zones/filters/zone-filter-external-*
  76     and several of these files include the same file with file:... )
  77
  78 ipprefix is no longer mandatory in %lo-lines.
  79
  80 ignores excessive fields
  81
  82 Validates us of locations against previously defined %lo:s. Note that this
  83   requires lo:s to be declared before use. Really natural anyway.
  84
  85 Ignore files ending with ,v ~ .bak .log .old .swp .tmp
  86   (this ignoranze can be overridden by the switch -s)
