The CoreDNS team has released
[CoreDNS-1.6.3](https://github.com/coredns/coredns/releases/tag/v1.6.3).
In this release we have moved the *federation* plugin to
[github.com/coredns/federation](https://github.com/coredns/federation), but it is still fully
functional in this version. In version 1.7.0 we expect to deprecate it.
Further more a slew a spelling corrections, and other minor improvements and polish. **And** two new
plugins: *clouddns* and *sign*.
# Plugins
* [*clouddns*](/plugins/clouddns) to enable serving zone data from GCP Cloud DNS.
* [*sign*](/plugins/sign) that (DNSSEC) signs your zonefiles (in its most basic form).
* [*file*](/plugins/file) various update, plug a memory leak when doing zone transfers, among other
things.
We've removed the time stamping from `pkg/log` as timestamps are *also* added by the logging
aggregators, like `journald` or inside Kubernetes. And a small ASCII art logo is now printed when
CoreDNS starts up.
