+
+CoreDNS-007 has been [released](https://github.com/coredns/coredns/releases/tag/v007)!
+
+CoreDNS is a DNS server that chains plugins, where each plugin implements a DNS feature.
+
+# News
+
+CoreDNS is accepted as an inception project by the [CNCF](https://cncf.io)! Which means a lot to us.
+See [this blog post](/2017/03/02/why-cncf-for-coredns/) on why we wanted/did this.
+
+Because of this we moved repos: <https://github.com/coredns> is the main overarching repo. There is
+an automatic redirect in place from the old repo.
+
+And... We have a new logo! We're also discussion a website redesign for <https://coredns.io> and
+this blog.
+
+Back to the release.
+
+# Core
+
+* `ServeDNS` is extended to take a context. This allows (for instance) tracing to start at an earlier entrypoint.
+* gRPC and TLS are made first class citizens. See [the zone
+ specification](https://github.com/coredns/coredns/blob/master/README.md#zone-specification) on how
+ to use it. TL;DR using `grpc://` makes the server talk gRPC. The `tls` directive is used to
+ specify TLS certifcates.
+* Zipkin tracing can be enabled for all plugin.
+
+# Plugins
+
+* *rewrite* now allows you to add or modify EDNS0 local or NSID options. The framework is in place to add additional EDNS0 types in the future.
+* *etcd* when no upstreams are defined won't default to using 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4; it just does not resolve external names in that case.
+* *erratic* now can also delay queries and send queries with Truncated set.
+* *metrics* will happily start as many (different) listeners as you want (if you really need that).
+* *startup* and *shutdown* allow for command to be run during startup or shutdown. These directly use the code from Caddy, see [Caddy's docs](https://caddyserver.com/docs/startup).
+* *kubernetes* now implements a `fallthrough` option to pass queries that would result in NXDOMAIN
+ to the next plugin, even if the query is in the cluster domain. This enables custom DNS
+ entries in the cluster domain (as long as they do not overlap with a normal Kubernetes record). To
+ facilitate this the plugin ordering is also altered to put *kubernetes* in the chain before
+ other backends.
+* *cache* will no longer cache RRSIGs that will expire while cached.
