Update the copyright information in all files in the repository This commit converts the license handling to adhere to the REUSE specification. It specifically: 1. Adds used licnses to LICENSES/ directory 2. Add "isc" template for adding the copyright boilerplate 3. Changes all source files to include copyright and SPDX license header, this includes all the C sources, documentation, zone files, configuration files. There are notes in the doc/dev/copyrights file on how to add correct headers to the new files. 4. Handle the rest that can't be modified via .reuse/dep5 file. The binary (or otherwise unmodifiable) files could have license places next to them in <foo>.license file, but this would lead to cluttered repository and most of the files handled in the .reuse/dep5 file are system test files.

Convert the documentation to Sphinx documentation format The ARM and the manpages have been converted into Sphinx documentation format. Sphinx uses reStructuredText as its markup language, and many of its strengths come from the power and straightforwardness of reStructuredText and its parsing and translating suite, the Docutils.

Completely remove BIND 9 Windows support The Windows support has been completely removed from the source tree and BIND 9 now no longer supports native compilation on Windows. We might consider reviewing mingw-w64 port if contributed by external party, but no development efforts will be put into making BIND 9 compile and run on Windows again.

Create release notes for 9.18.0 We started with compilation of _all_ 9.17.z notes into one file: $ ls *.17*.rst | sort -V | xargs cat > notes-9.18.0.rst Then removed removed duplicate extra copyright headers: $ grep -v '^\.\. [^_]' notes-9.18.0.rst > notes-9.18.0.rst.copy $ grep -v '^\.\.$' notes-9.18.0.rst.copy > notes-9.18.0.rst $ vim notes-9.17.0.rst notes-9.18.0.rst Next step was to find notes referencing the changes which were backported to 9.16.25 and remove these. Duplicites were checked by diffing corresponding texts in 9.16 and 9.17, and it revealed that some backports were either partial, or code was backported but the release note was lost in 9.16 branch. In that case we did not re-introduce the relnote and considered it also duplicate. Most notable cases of "missing in 9.16 relnote but in fact fixed" were notes for CVE-2020-8616 and CVE-2020-8617. These were accidentally omitted from 9.16 release docs, and we are going to fix it in separate MR !5722. Further removals include: - Security issue #2787: The bug was introduced & fixed in 9.17.z, so there is no need to tell about it to people upgrading to 9.18.0. - Bugfix !3135: Backported but with unclear reference in relnotes. - Bugfix !3137: Backported but with unclear reference in relnotes. - Bugfix #2460: Introduced & fixed in 9.17.z. - Bugfix #2504: The bug was introduced & fixed in 9.17.z. - Bugfix #2562: Introduced & fixed in 9.17.z. - Bugfix #2917: Introduced & fixed in 9.17.z - Bugfix #3040: Introduced & fixed in 9.17.z. - Bugfix #3062: Introduced & fixed in 9.17.z. - Change #4: Introduced & "finished" in 9.17.z. - Change #1610: Introduced & reverted in 9.17.z. - Change #1958: No user visible impact. - Change #2016: No user visible impact. - Change #2022: No user visible impact. - Change #2264: Affects a feature introduced only to 9.17 branch. - Change #2401: No user visible impact. - Known issue about libuv: Got fixed later in the cycle. - Known issue about port clash: It is now config error. Then tweaking started to clarify meaning of various notes to people upgrading from 9.16. While doing so, bugfix #2927 was omited because the change just makes 9.18 SERVFAIL faster than 9.16, so even though it is technically bugfix it is so minor that it is not worth bragging about in release notes. TLS/DoT/DoH features were summarized from many independent notes into one giant note per feature. All notes were rearranged according to their "perceived priority".
