[tor-dev] Tor and DNS

Hi,

After some interesting discussions irl last week with knowledgeable DNS and security people (hi Jakob) I'd like to hear from people involved with DNS in Tor what current status is and what needs to be done.

More specifically, what's the status of ttdnsd and TorDNSd? Are they being used? Any thoughts about having a local validating resolver?

I know there's been some discussions (4zm, are you here?) about using libunbound (which could be interesting for DNSSEC support). Did that evolve into anything useful?

I'm by no means a DNS expert but would love to see some discussion about this, partly because future IPv6 work will depend on changes to our DNS system.

Thanks, Linus
