I noticed this on stern, after running a forwarder for 31 days since august.
_ddd 61913 0.0 1.2 117548 99700 ?? Spc 30Aug23 2:36.88 delphinusdns
d: FORWARD engine [forward] (delphinusdnsd)
It is nearly 100 MB large, but doesn't have RR's to match that:
root@stern# dddctl dumpcache -I forward|wc -l
dumping cache
195
Next week I'm slowly starting to look into delphinusdnsd again and may take a
look at this then.

Just want to say I haven't disappeared and not writing DNS stuff in September
is rare. I actually am trying to port OpenBSD to Mango Pi hardware. And this
took a good 2 weeks of my time right now. I also got another RISCV computer
and I'll be setting it up shortly. I have a new image on the website and
moved the credits image to about.html, I like it very much.
There is still a little bit to do until November/December (6th at latest) for
the 1.8 release. I'm very happy we've come this far. I'll probably use up
September for some maintenance tasks and get coding again in early October.
Also I'm very anxiously awaiting on Jury decision of this Prototypefund.
Search the blog, this is my third time applying. Fingers crossed!

There is some concern about 2FA on Github. All I know is that if I am required
to have a smartphone or do any other 2FA beyond my ssh key that I'll be
leaving github. This isn't just yet, but how it'll go down is that a
preliminary release will be made. (either 1.7.x or 1.8.0) and then another
1.8 release in december. All eyes are on Microsofts github now. We'll see
what happens next. If this scenario falls true I'll set up a gotwebd on one
of my servers and continue development there.

I'm planning ahead and it's almost september. There is roughly 13 weeks left
of development for this year. The TODO still has three or four things so I'm
pretty well set for things. 1.8 is gonna rock!

So I'm very excited that there is only 1 year and roughly 3-4 months left in
the Open Source portion of delphinusdnsd. I'll be turning 48 years old in
march 2024 and here is my plan for the future.
- between march 2024 and october 2024 there may be a chance for funding
through prototypefund.de. I applied to this a week or two ago. The work
focuses on DNS Updates.
- end of 2024 marks the 1.9.0 release date at which this project is also
at an end for me, for the time being.
- between 2025 and 2027, I'll be porting delphinusdnsd to edwin on windows
which is closed source but may be available for cheap in a microsoft app store.
- between 2027 and 2029, I'll be working to incorporate delphinusdnsd into
a DNS based firewall similar to nextdns.io. The edwin client will come in
handy for this (it will be made for this). Unless DNS4EU squeezes these types
of networks out, there is a chance to make some money here. I'll be age 53
which is a magic DNS number due to the domain service port.
- Also after the edwin project I may either take on another project or go
ahead with the 2.x major version on delphinusdnsd we'll see.
- Beyond 2030... is written in the stars. Perhaps I'll come alive in 2037
shortly to fix up any Y2038 problems that may be found.
Wow it really is my life's work/effort.

A friend added the OPENPGPKEY RR to his zone, so I want to eventually support
that for him. I also added the SMIMEA and CERT RR's onto my
TODO
which I'll
be doing in parallel. The work is about 2-7 days and I'll start next friday
when temperatures are to my liking. Until then I'll work on something else.
Did you notice I improved the not-well-known dddctl dumpcache command for
forwarded and cache'd RR's? I also added a wrap6to4 option to forwarding
for my Samsung TV, but I don't know if it made it much better. Basically
I see the TV making AAAA lookups when it's not even IPv6 capable. Odd thing.

It seems to have implemented faster than I had imagined. There you go!

This weekend I was able to pull out and complete old patches and relive
deadened code. It looks like by next week (perhaps on sunday) we'll have
full NSEC support in both the daemon and the signer. I'm hoping that someone
can then use delphinusdnsd from the master branch as a secondary/replicant.
I have limited time next week but the weekend next weekend looks good.
From the start DNSSEC signing in dddctl was done with NSEC3 records to prove
NXDOMAIN and such things as NOERROR and NODATA for proof of nonexistance.
I avoided NSEC purposely then because I didn't want to use it. Now though I
see domains such as isc.org use NSEC still and it makes me want it too. Soon
we'll get it!

I just put the code in and compared it with nsd outputs and dnsviz.net. The
dnsnames I checked too were c.delphinusdns.org, nonexist.delphinusdns.org
and riscv64.delphinusdns.org. Sorry for the seven day wait on this.

I'll have to take a look on this on monday. While ''riscv64.delphinusdns.org''
has no SERVFAIL. The ''a.b.c.delphinusdns.org'' does have a SERVFAIL.
This code is feisty to get right.
