This is dnspython 1.16.0
+### Notices
+
+Python 2.x support ends with the release of 1.16.0, unless there are
+critical bugs in 1.16.0. Future versions of dnspython will only
+support Python 3.
+
+Version numbering of future dnspython releases will also start at 2.0, as
+incompatible changes will be permitted. We're not planning huge changes at
+this time, but we'd like to do a better job at IDNA, and there are other
+API improvements to be made.
+
+The ChangeLog has been discontinued. Please see the git history for detailed
+change information.

+* Much of the internals of dns.query.udp() and dns.query.tcp() have
+ been factored out into dns.query.send_udp(),
+ dns.query.receive_udp(), dns.query.send_tcp(), and
+ dns.query.receive_tcp(). Applications which want more control over
+ the socket may find the new routines helpful; for example it would
+ be easy to send multiple queries over a single TCP connection.
+
+* The OPENPGPKEY RR, and the CHAOS class A RR are now supported.
+
+* EDNS0 client-subnet is supported.
+
+* dns.resover.query() now has a lifetime timeout optional parameter.
+
+* pycryptodome and pycryptodomex are now supported and recommended for use
+ instead of pycrypto.
+
+* dns.message.from_wire() now has an ignore_trailing option.
+
+* type signatures have been provided
