[net-dns-users] Release candidate for Net::DNS 1.38

[Willem Toorop]

Dear all,

We have a candidate for the upcoming 1.38 release of Net::DNS.

This candidate has

   - has improved robustness of address parsing in Mailbox.pm
   - has improved testing using the new t/TestToolkit.pm module
   - has refactored socket code and control structure in Nameserver.pm
   - and many more code-improvements and bug and documentation fixes.

This candidate deprecates

   - the packet->edns->size() method
     (replaced by packet->edns->UDPsize()).
   - the rdatastr() method for Resource Record modules
     (replaced with rdstring())

Please review the candidate carefully. If no issues arise, the actual 
releases will follow Monday the 8th of May 2023.
