Changelogs for 4.2.x
====================
+.. changelog::
+ :version: 4.2.0-rc3
+ :released: 29th of July 2019
+
+ Thanks to an overwhelming amount of testing by our fabulous user community, this release candidate contains a ton of bug fixes (and a few improvements) compared to the previous one. We hope this has shaken out all of the important bugs, so that we can release 4.2.0 soon!
+
+ This release, sadly, cripples the LMDB backend somewhat, due to `transaction-related fixes for the SQL backends <https://github.com/PowerDNS/pdns/pull/7891>`__. We hope to fix `this issue <https://github.com/PowerDNS/pdns/issues/8134>`__ before 4.2.0, or otherwise, early in 4.2.x.
