1POSSIBLE TODO send sha1hash of public key for better error reporting(?) 11.9
2POSSIBLE TODO check own keypair for better error reporting 2 - WARNING: this version checks the return value of if-up etc.
3TODO vpn::tap_ev does not handle EOF well, or does it? (CHECK) 3 scripts and exits on failure.
4TODO vpn::tcpv4_ev does not handle EOF well, or does it? (CHECK) 4 - IMPORTANT: run if-up/node-up etc. scripts via /bin/sh.
5TODO tcp_connection::tcpv4_ev does not handle EOF well, or does it? (CHECK) 5 - IMPORTANT: interface initialization (MAC, MTU) is now done
6 automatically in most configurations.
7 - make some DNS transport values configurable and document them.
8 - improved OS specific information in gvpe.osdep(5).
9 - new low-level device native/darwin, that supports the tap
10 driver available for darwin (thanks to matthew mead who tested
11 it out with me in a long session). tincd/darwin is still available.
12 - fixed a bug in relying on the order of global construction
13 when tcp transport was enabled. The fix makes it use no
14 cpu time unless it is in use, too.
15 - skip unparsable config lines with a warning instead of stopping
16 parsing and continuing with a certainly unusable config.

19 - enable-udp = yes is now default only when no other protocols
20 are enabled. otherwise it is disabled unless explicitly enabled.
21 - implemented dns tunneling (experimental now and in the future).
22 - remove support for pre-release version protocol.
23 - updated tincd drivers (rev 1433), added uml_socket driver, documented
24 tincd drivers a bit better.
25 - document icmp configuration values.
26 - document transport protocols in gvpe.protocol(7).
27 - remove unused ChangeLog file.
28 - created a mailinglist at gvpe@lists.schmorp.de.
29 - added an exemption to allow distribution of binaries linked against
30 OpenSSL, as suggested by Guus Sliepen (author of tinc). No
31 GNUTLS conversion in sight.
32 - some portability fixes with respect to --disable-nls.

58 - various non-security-related bugfixes.
59 - c++ify (at least make it compile with g++-3.4, which should make
