The RIPE archive has documentation for 4.9.3. I'll copy this to the DNS working group and ask the experts to say where BIND 4.9.3 can be found; thank you, RIPE folk. Cheers.

I have not yet updated my "state of BIND versions" note to track the rapidly changing beta versions of the last few weeks; until the 4.9.3 version is released, information from my note probably is still pretty good advice for sites that do not want to get involved in testing of the new BIND version. The stuff still can be found at ftp://ftp.DIGI.DE/DNS/src/bind/IMPORTANT-NOTE For those interested in the most current beta find Paul Vixie's announcement attached below.

Beta14 will be virtually indistinguishable from 4.9.3-Rel (which I've been calling "Final") unless someone finds a bug which is (a) serious and (b) not related to portability.

Just Do It.''

Message-ID: <21241.788020680@seins.Informatik.Uni-Dortmund.DE> I should add to the previous message: the BETA9 version is NOT available anymore from Pail Vixie's server; however the files are still available in the same directory as the notice I mentioned. (I think the final version will be out so soon that it makes no sense to update my "status of BIND versions" before that happens; and I will try to update quickly after it happens.)
