Oh, nice! Is it released already?

I'm not able to find string "refuse-any" either in
http://unbound.nlnetlabs.nl/svn/trunk/doc/Changelog
or in SVN log.


Curious question: How are these RRsets selected?
For example domain cpsc.gov. which is often used for attacks using our
resolver can produce rather large answers for QTYPE, so returning more
than one QTYPE might not cut the size down as we would wish.
