+### Introduction
+
+BIND (Berkeley Internet Name Domain) is a complete, highly portable
+implementation of the Domain Name System (DNS) protocol.
+
+The BIND name server, `named`, can act as an authoritative name
+server, recursive resolver, DNS forwarder, or all three simultaneously. It
+implements views for split-horizon DNS, automatic DNSSEC zone signing and
+key management, catalog zones to facilitate provisioning of zone data
+throughout a name server constellation, response policy zones (RPZ) to
+protect clients from malicious data, response rate limiting (RRL) and
+recursive query limits to reduce distributed denial of service attacks,
+and many other advanced DNS features. BIND also includes a suite of
+administrative tools, including the `dig` and `delv` DNS lookup tools,
+`nsupdate` for dynamic DNS zone updates, `rndc` for remote name server
+administration, and more.
+
+BIND 9 began as a complete rewrite of the BIND architecture that was
+used in versions 4 and 8. Internet Systems Consortium
+([https://www.isc.org](https://www.isc.org)), a 501(c)(3) US public benefit
+corporation dedicated to providing software and services in support of the
+Internet infrastructure, developed BIND 9 and is responsible for its
+ongoing maintenance and improvement. BIND is open source software
+licensed under the terms of the Mozilla Public License, version 2.0.
+
+For a detailed list of changes made throughout the history of BIND 9, see
+the file [CHANGES](CHANGES). See [below](#changes) for details on the
+CHANGES file format.
+
+For up-to-date versions and release notes, see
+[https://www.isc.org/download/](https://www.isc.org/download/).
+
+For information about supported platforms, see the
+["Supported Platforms"](doc/arm/platforms.rst) section in the BIND 9
+Administrator Reference Manual.
+
+### Reporting bugs and getting help
+
+To report non-security-sensitive bugs or request new features, you may
+open an issue in the BIND 9 project on the
+[ISC GitLab server](https://gitlab.isc.org) at
+[https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9](https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9).
+
+Please note that, unless you explicitly mark the newly created issue as
+"confidential," it will be publicly readable. Please do not include any
+information in bug reports that you consider to be confidential unless
+the issue has been marked as such. In particular, if submitting the
+contents of your configuration file in a non-confidential issue, it is
+advisable to obscure key secrets; this can be done automatically by
+using `named-checkconf -px`.
+
+For information about ISC's Security Vulnerability Disclosure Policy and
+information about reporting potential security issues, please see
+`SECURITY.md`.
+
+Professional support and training for BIND are available from
+ISC. Contact us at [https://www.isc.org/contact](https://www.isc.org/contact)
+for more information.
+
+To join the __BIND Users__ mailing list, or view the archives, visit
+[https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users](https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users).
+
+If you're planning on making changes to the BIND 9 source code, you
+may also want to join the __BIND Workers__ mailing list, at
+[https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-workers](https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-workers).
+
+### Contributing to BIND
+
+ISC maintains a public git repository for BIND; details can be found
+at [https://www.isc.org/sourceaccess/](https://www.isc.org/sourceaccess/).
+
+Information for BIND contributors can be found in the following files:
+- General information: [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md)
+- Code of Conduct: [CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md](CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md)
+- BIND 9 code style: [doc/dev/style.md](doc/dev/style.md)
+- BIND architecture and developer guide: [doc/dev/dev.md](doc/dev/dev.md)
+
+Patches for BIND may be submitted as
+[merge requests](https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/merge_requests)
+on the [ISC GitLab server](https://gitlab.isc.org).
+
+By default, external contributors do not have the ability to fork BIND on the
+GitLab server; if you wish to contribute code to BIND, you may request
+permission to do so. Thereafter, you can create git branches and directly
+submit requests that they be reviewed and merged.
+
+If you prefer, you may also submit code by opening a
+[GitLab issue](https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/issues) and
+including your patch as an attachment, preferably generated by
+`git format-patch`.
+
+### Building BIND 9
+
+For information about building BIND 9, see the
+["Building BIND 9"](doc/arm/build.inc.rst) section in the BIND 9
+Administrator Reference Manual.
+
+### Automated testing
+
+A system test suite can be run with `make check`. The system tests require
+you to configure a set of virtual IP addresses on your system (this allows
+multiple servers to run locally and communicate with each other). These
+IP addresses can be configured by running the command
+`bin/tests/system/ifconfig.sh up` as root.
+
+Some tests require Perl and the `Net::DNS` and/or `IO::Socket::INET6` modules,
+and are skipped if these are not available. Some tests require Python
+and the `dnspython` module and are skipped if these are not available.
+See bin/tests/system/README for further details.
+
+Unit tests are implemented using the CMocka unit testing framework. To build
+them, use `configure --with-cmocka`. Execution of tests is done by the automake
+parallel test driver; unit tests are also run by `make check`.
+
+### Documentation
+
+The *BIND 9 Administrator Reference Manual* (ARM) is included with the source
+distribution, and in .rst format, in the `doc/arm`
+directory. HTML and PDF versions are automatically generated and can
+be viewed at [https://bind9.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html](https://bind9.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html).
+
+Man pages for some of the programs in the BIND 9 distribution
+are also included in the BIND ARM.
+
+Frequently (and not-so-frequently) asked questions and their answers
+can be found in the ISC Knowledgebase at
+[https://kb.isc.org](https://kb.isc.org).
+
+Additional information on various subjects can be found in other
+`README` files throughout the source tree.
+
+### Change log
+
+A detailed list of all changes that have been made throughout the
+development of BIND 9 is included in the file CHANGES, with the most recent
+changes listed first. Change notes include tags indicating the category of
+the change that was made; these categories are:
+
+|Category |Description |
+|-------------- |-----------------------------------------------|
+| [func] | New feature |
+| [bug] | General bug fix |
+| [security] | Fix for a significant security flaw |
+| [experimental] | Used for new features when the syntax or other aspects of the design are still in flux and may change |
+| [port] | Portability enhancement |
+| [maint] | Updates to built-in data such as root server addresses and keys |
+| [tuning] | Changes to built-in configuration defaults and constants to improve performance |
+| [performance] | Other changes to improve server performance |
+| [protocol] | Updates to the DNS protocol such as new RR types |
+| [test] | Changes to the automatic tests, not affecting server functionality |
+| [cleanup] | Minor corrections and refactoring |
+| [doc] | Documentation |
+| [contrib] | Changes to the contributed tools and libraries in the 'contrib' subdirectory |
+| [placeholder] | Used in the main development branch to reserve change numbers for use in other branches, e.g., when fixing a bug that only exists in older releases |
+
+In general, [func] and [experimental] tags only appear in new-feature
+releases (i.e., those with version numbers ending in zero). Some new
+functionality may be backported to older releases on a case-by-case basis.
+All other change types may be applied to all currently supported releases.
+
+#### Bug report identifiers
+
+Most notes in the CHANGES file include a reference to a bug report or
+issue number. Prior to 2018, these were usually of the form `[RT #NNN]`
+and referred to entries in the "bind9-bugs" RT database, which was not open
+to the public. More recent entries use the form `[GL #NNN]` or, less often,
+`[GL !NNN]`, which, respectively, refer to issues or merge requests in the
+GitLab database. Most of these are publicly readable, unless they include
+information which is confidential or security-sensitive.
+
+To look up a GitLab issue by its number, use the URL
+[https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/issues/NNN](https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/issues).
+To look up a merge request, use
+[https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/merge_requests/NNN](https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/merge_requests).
+
+In rare cases, an issue or merge request number may be followed with the
+letter "P". This indicates that the information is in the private ISC
+GitLab instance, which is not visible to the public.

+# OQS-Bind
+
+OQS-BIND is a forked version of ISC's [Bind9](https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9) DNS software
+which enables PQC DNS. The original Bind9 readme can be found [here](ORIGINAL_README.md). This fork
+take advantage of [Open Quantum Safe](https://github.com/open-quantum-safe)'s
+[liboqs](https://github.com/open-quantum-safe/liboqs) and [oqs-provider](https://github.com/open-quantum-safe/oqs-provider).
+**NOTE:** OpenSSL 3.2 is **REQUIRED** to build and use OQS-Bind.
+
+This project is not officially affiliated with Open Quantum Safe.
+
+## Algorithms
+Currently only DNSSEC is supported and tested with a small number of algorithms,
+but DoT and DoH inprinciple should work. I plan on eventually enabling more DNSSEC PQC algorithms in the
+future and automating enabling and disabling them, but for now this must be done by hand. The algorithms
+we support in DNSSEC are as follows:
+
+### DNSSEC Algorithms
+| Algorithm | DNSSEC Algorithm ID |
+| ---------------------------- | ------------------- |
+| Falcon-512 | 17 |
+| Dilithium2 | 18 |
+| SPHINCS+-SHA-256-128s Simple | 19 |
+
+We opted to start the algorithm IDs at 17 because of the discussion seen
+[here](https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/dnsop/2xKvE-g1WU5VozEDN7-h2e5y-MQ/).
+
+### DoT/DoH Algorithms
+These have not been tested, but in principle all algorithms supported by
+[oqs-proivder](https://github.com/open-quantum-safe/oqs-provider) should work.
+
+## Building
+
+In order to build OQS-Bind, some version of OpenSSL 3.2 must be installed. At the time
+of writing Beta1 just was released, so it is recommended to not use OpenSSL 3.2 as your
+primary system-wide instalation of OpenSSL. Instead, installed OpenSSL 3.2 in a special
+location. You can then specify the location of OpenSSL 3.2 using the `--with-openssl=`.
+Then simply follow the regular Bind9 build instructions found [here](https://github.com/Martyrshot/OQS-bind/blob/main/doc/arm/build.inc.rst).
