-	- skip unparsable config lines instead of stopping parsing and
-          continuing with a surely unusable config.
-        - make some dns transport values configurable and document them.
-        - new low-level device native/darwin, which supports the tap driver
-          available for darwin.

+        - 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.
+        - options can now be specified on the gvpe command line, too.
+        - 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+        - new device type "tincd/bsd", which is a newer version of the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.
