Hi Ondřej,

Matthijs is ill, so I'm replying for the moment.

NLnet Labs promises to give a 2 year notice when support ends.
(for the reader: our support program is described
http://nlnetlabs.nl/projects/nsd/support.html)

It was more than 2 years since NSD 3 was announced (5 sep 2006), which
implicitly meant that support for older versions was going to drop.
NSD 2 had its last release a little later (2.3.7, 16 april 2007).

NLnet Labs is no longer providing support for the old NSD 2.x.  We also
have not received any support requests for 2.x.  Therefore I would
advise to upgrade to nsd3 and not package nsd2 in the new Debian.

Best regards,
   Wouter
