Why no update yet? 9.1.3 isn't very stable.

BIND 9.2.0 introduces a number of new features over 9.1, including:
=B7       The size of the cache can now be limited using the=
 "max-cache-size"=20
option.
=B7       The server can now automatically convert RFC1886-style recursive=
=20
lookup requests into RFC2874-style lookups, when enabled using the new=20
option "allow-v6-synthesis". This allows stub resolvers that support AAAA=20
records but not A6 record chains or binary labels to perform lookups in=20
domains that make use of these IPv6 DNS features.
=B7       Performance has been improved.
=B7       The man pages now use the more portable "man" macros rather than=
=20
the "mandoc" macros, and are installed by "make install".
=B7       The named.conf parser has been completely rewritten. It now=20
supports "include" directives in more places such as inside "view"=20
statements, and it no longer has any reserved words.
=B7       The "rndc status" command is now implemented.
=B7       rndc can now be configured automatically.
=B7       A BIND 8 compatible stub resolver library is now included in=
 lib/bind.
=B7       OpenSSL has been removed from the distribution. This means that to=
=20
use DNSSEC, OpenSSL must be installed and the --with-openssl option must be=
=20
supplied to configure. This does not apply to the use of TSIG, which does=20
not require OpenSSL.
=B7       The source distribution now builds on Windows NT/2000. See=20
win32utils/readme1.txt and win32utils/win32-build.txt for details.
