+BIND version 9 is a major rewrite of nearly all aspects of the underlying BIND
+architecture. Some of the important features of BIND 9 are:
+
+DNS Security
+ DNSSEC (signed zones)
+ TSIG (signed DNS requests)
+IP version 6
+ Answers DNS queries on IPv6 sockets
+ IPv6 resource records (AAAA)
+ Experimental IPv6 Resolver Library
+DNS Protocol Enhancements
+ IXFR, DDNS, Notify, EDNS0
+ Improved standards conformance
+Views
+ One server process can provide multiple "views" of
+ the DNS namespace, e.g. an "inside" view to certain
+ clients, and an "outside" view to others.
+Multiprocessor Support
+Improved Portability Architecture
