" summary

CoreDNS reports as stable with active small fixes and concrete roadmap items: a tiny, simple plugin API where a setup function gets a context, DNS message and a next handler; a text Corefile plugin order that determines behaviour; concrete plugins like proxy + cache combination (prefetch, timeouts, health checks) and metrics export; debugging hooks to see which cluster node answered a query; plans to add alternative backends (SQL/proto store) and improved DNS-over-TLS/HTTPS support plus socket and performance tuning for large clusters.
