 >   The current DNS is unnecessarily slow and suffers from inability      
 >   to deploy new features. To remediate these problems, vendors of
 >   DNS software and also big public DNS providers are going to
 >   remove certain workarounds on February 1st, 2019.
 > 
 >   This change affects only sites which operate software which is
 >   not following published standards. Are you affected?
 > 
 > On that web page, there is a Domain Owner's test.  You can enter
 > a domain name and click 'test' and shortly receive a report of
 > what was found regarding your domain's DNS servers.
 > 
 > I somehow managed to miss the announcement of this upcoming event,
 > even though I read this mailing list fairly closely.  Perhaps it
 > was announced somewhere else instead.  I think it needs to be
 > mentioned here if it hasn't already been.
