From what we discovered about unbound during one of the meetings, I
clearly do not trust that technology. Too bad: it was on my to-test list.

However, unbound is recursive-only IIRC.

Since I am most interested in authoritative NS technology, I have yet to
test knot, of which I read good stuff.

BIND is ol' do-it-all grand-daddy. A bit messy & overcomplicated to
properly set up & manage to my taste.
