which is more than 2 years from now. Unless you need a feature from 9.12
and above, 9.11 is still a good choice if you were able to build it on
your Solaris platform. ISC maintains its older non-EOL BIND versions
well (and 9.11 is likely more stable too from the years of public's
usage it has got).
+1 on deciding to move from Solaris to a BSD or Linux though. ;)
