This is a bug fix release, but it also features a new plugin called [*azure*](/plugins/azure).

It's compiled with Go 1.12.8 that incorporates fixes for HTTP/2 that may impact you if you use
[DoH](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8484).

# Plugins

* Add [*azure*](/plugins/azure) to facilitate serving records from Microsoft Azure.
* Make the refresh frequency adjustable in the [*route53*](/plugins/route53) plugin.
