3TODO: udpoate dcumentation, algorithm
4todo: keepalive more aggressive?
5
62.2
7 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases,
8 but upgrade is recommended to due changed ondemand behaviour.
9 - new per-node options max-ttl and max-queue.
10 - convert from iom.C to libev, a high-performance event loop
11 (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
12 - tcp connections were leaking in some cases.
13 - retry more aggressively (once/s) to establish a connection if
14 new packets arrive for it.
15 - save a lot of setsockopt calls when the tos doesn't change.
16 - honor disabled even on initial connect attempt.
17 - changed callback mechanism to be slightly less portable
18 but more efficient mechanism (standards-compliant c++ compilers
19 should work).
20 - increased receive window positive size, to allow for massive
21 packet loss due to occasional longer drop-outs.
22 - send RST when a positive window size violation is detected, but
23 not in other cases, to reconnect more quickly.
24 - upgraded liblzf to version 3.2.
25 - dropped -fno-exceptions due to ev++.h using it.
26 - node-up/down scripts are now run in sequence.
27 - new -q switch for gvpectrl, for when you run it often.
28 - bugfixes.

302.01 Thu Mar 29 19:26:04 CEST 2007
31 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
32 - bugfix of callback.h, might have cause callback return values to
33 be corrupted on architectures like sparc before.
34 - dns transport retries more aggressively.
35 - updated documentation, improved dns transport reliability
36 and throughput.
37 - added experimental support for sha256 and sha512 digests.

392.0 Mon Dec 5 13:59:26 CET 2005
40 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
41 - implement allow-direct, deny-direct node config statements.
42 - implemented != for sockinfo. This fixes a bug where
43 gvpe sent packets to the old ip address of another host
44 even though it had received packets from it's new address.
45 This only causes problems if you forget to -HUP your gvpe after
46 your ip address changed, which is *required*.
47 - sets close-on-exec flag on tcp connections. This fixes a bug
48 where child processes kept tcp connections open and caused
49 connections to fail when only one side can connect.
50 - fixed a bug in receive sequence checking that made gvpe
51 accept out-of-window packets in most cases.
52 - tighter limit for the maximum sequence # to avoid overflow
53 conditions + allow more headroom for packet reordering.
54 - replace some asserts that trapped config mismatches by
55 more useful log messages.
56 - fix spurious extra newline in some log messages.
