+TODO: EDNS0 option to increase dns mtu?
+TODO: options-on-commandline
+
+1.9
+        - WARNING: this version checks the return value of if-up etc.
+          scripts and exits on failure.
+        - IMPORTANT: run if-up/node-up etc. scripts via /bin/sh.
+        - IMPORTANT: interface initialization (MAC, MTU) is now done
+          automatically in most configurations.
+        - make some DNS transport values configurable and document them.
+        - improved OS specific information in gvpe.osdep(5).
+        - new tap device type "native/darwin", that supports the tap
+          driver available for darwin (thanks to matthew mead who tested
+          it out with me in a long session). tincd/darwin is still available.
+        - new device type "tincd/bsd", which is a newer version of the
+          *bsd-drivers taken from tinc.
+        - fixed a bug in relying on the order of global construction
+          when tcp transport was enabled. The fix makes it use no
+          cpu time unless it is in use, too.
+        - information about other nodes is now available to if-up etc. scripts.
+        - the value of the config variable if-up-data is passed to the if-up
+          etc. scripts.
+	- skip unparsable config lines with a warning instead of stopping
+          parsing and continuing with a certainly unusable config.
+
+1.8 Fri Mar 18 00:58:55 CET 2005
+	- enable-udp = yes is now default only when no other protocols
+          are enabled. otherwise it is disabled unless explicitly enabled.
+        - implemented dns tunneling (experimental now and in the future).
+        - remove support for pre-release version protocol.
+        - updated tincd drivers (rev 1433), added uml_socket driver, documented
+          tincd drivers a bit better.
+        - document icmp configuration values.
+        - document transport protocols in gvpe.protocol(7).
+        - remove unused ChangeLog file.
+        - created a mailinglist at gvpe@lists.schmorp.de.
+        - added an exemption to allow distribution of binaries linked against
+          OpenSSL, as suggested by Guus Sliepen (author of tinc). No
+          GNUTLS conversion in sight.
+        - some portability fixes with respect to --disable-nls.
+
+1.7 Tue Feb 22 23:58:59 CET 2005
+	- protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
+	- first gnu release.
+        - documented the special value 1 for router-priority.
+        - renamed vped => gvpe and vpectrl => gvpectrl, as well as
+          vped.conf => gvpe.conf.
+	- new per-node option "max-retry".
+	- asymmetric rekeying behaviour, so hosts don't rekey simultaneously.
+        - new configure option --enable-static-daemon.
+        - fix configure --help output.
+        - many documentation layout fixes.
+        - synced iom.[Ch] from rxvt-unicode.
+        - try to cope with some non-monotonic time changes.
+        - revert to locale.h - a usual, clocale is nonfunctioning on macosx.
+        - considerably improved pod2texi and the resulting texi doc.
+
+1.6.1 Wed May 12 14:48:20 CEST 2004
+	- protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
+	- fix -c switch that has been broken due to a last-minute fix
+	  to option and config file parsing.
+
+1.6 Mon May 10 20:55:10 CEST 2004
+	- protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
+	- do not RESET on out-of-sequence packets (good for wireless).
+	- various non-security-related bugfixes.
+	- c++ify (at least make it compile with g++-3.4, which should make
+	  it a little bit more standard c++).
+
+1.5 Fri Jan 30 00:50:04 CET 2004
+	- protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
+	- vped will refuse to start when hostkey and public key do not match.
+	- updated lzf code to version 1.2.
+	- better error reporting for "unusual" conditions, like failing
+	  to allocate memory, that should not normally happen and
+	  will otherwise result in spurious other error messages. Also
+	  adds paranoid checks in case openssl's API changes in a bad way.
+	- fix a bug where queued vpn packets were cleared to zero. while
+	  this doesn't affect security, it did cause warning messages and
+	  unnecessary connectivity delays.
+
+1.4 Sat Jan 17 15:49:21 CET 2004
+	- protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
+	- better retry behaviour on key mismatch.
+	- use select-based io_manager instead of poll-based one.
+	- share io manager between rxvt-unicode and vpe.
+	- sooo many *BSD workarounds because no BSD I could find is even
+	  remotely POSIX-compatible.
+
+1.2 Fri Oct 17 03:44:44 CEST 2003
+	- protocol version 0.1.
+	- tincd kernel interface code imported, more supported platforms
+	  (native/linux (2.4), tincd/linux (2.2 and 2.4), tincd/freebsd,
+	  native/cygwin).
+	- added primitive ethernet emulation (ipv4 only), which allows
+	  the following platforms that only have tun drivers to work:
+	  /* none yet tested */
+	- portability workarounds, especially for unfriendly freebsd
+	- very minor bugfixes
+	- warnings when choosing insecure ciphers/hashes
+	- reduced default hmac length to 8.
+	- cvs now contains configure, Makefile.in and other generated files.
+	- added doc/complex-example to the distribution.
+
+1.0 distant past
+	- protocol version 0.1.
+	- tweaked various timeouts to help very slow (486) class
+	  machines or nets with many hosts.
+	- tweaked rate-limiting to be more forgiving for hosts
+	  connecting through routers (not a fix).
