32.2 3New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
4 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
5 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
6 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.

8TODO: bridge mode, finally?

10 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: no longer enable udp protocol if no other
11 protocols are enabled - this is necessary when you have nodes with
12 completely unknown protocols, to force mediated connection requests.
13 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: dns transport protocol bumped to version 2.
14 - nodes would sometimes declare transport endpoints valid despite
15 the protocol not being configured locally.
16 - core protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
17 - new global configuration options: chroot, chuser, chuid, chgid,
18 to chroot to a specified or anonymous new root, and change user id.
19 - prefer inet_aton over gethostbyname, as the latter is not guaranteed
20 to "resolve" literal ip addresses.
21 - configure didn't detect openssl 1.0 because SHA1_version became private
22 (patch by TANIGUCHI Takaki).
23 - fix a bug where nodes would tell the other side that it supports
24 the same protocols as that other side, instead of its own.
25 - add zlib when found, as openssl depends on it in newer versions.
26 - work around append-bugs in uclibc by using an extra seek.
27 - new "include" directive for the config file.
28 - gvpectrl no longer evaluates any "on" directives.
29 - icmp and rawip protocols weren't upgradable to each other.
30 - major, but incremental, dns transport improvements:
31 - do not simply abort in some error cases in the dns transport,
32 but try to recover.
33 - allow lowercase/uppercase alises for base-n encodings that do
34 not rely on case.
35 - use base26 instead of base22 encoding for dns syn's, and
36 base36 instead of base22 for headers (saves one byte/packet).
37 - back off far quicker in dns tunnel when idling - increases
38 latency on an idle link somewhat, but avoids hundreds of
39 needless packets.
40 - poll more aggressively when idling in dns (poll once per
41 second as opposed to once per 5 seconds).
42 - reduce dns send payload size to allow greater rate of ack
43 messages (should help sack and ipv6).
44 - allow for ip options in rawip/icmp transports, even though gvpe
45 doesn't generate them.
46 - upgrade to libev 4 API.

4 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases, 49 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
50 - due to a bug, when packets were lost, a connection could go into a
51 state where a ping/connection request from another node would be
52 ignored, leading to connections not being re-established.
53 - due to a bug, compression was almost always enabled.
54 - enable-max-mtu was actually enable-mtu, contrary to documentation.
55 - add nfmark support.
56 - add node-change script support.
57 - new DESTSI variable for node-xxx scripts.
58 - updated codingstyle a bit, declared truly static stuff as static.
59 - clarify compression docs.

612.22 Sun Feb 1 17:25:28 CET 2009
62 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
63 - enabled icmp/tcp/http-proxy protocols by default.
64 - updated copyright in program greetings.
65 - fix some configure messages.
66 - updated to libev 3.52.

682.21 Wed Sep 3 06:56:27 CEST 2008
69 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
70 - add missing ev++.h include header to tarball, which everybody
71 who tested it apparently had in their include path :(. Caught
72 by Karl Kleinpaste and Marcus Kong.

75 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.

6 - new per-node options max-ttl and max-queue. 77 - new per-node options max-ttl and max-queue.

9 - tcp connections were leaking in some cases. 80 - tcp connections were leaking in some cases.
12 - save a lot of setsockopt calls when the tos doesn't change. 83 - save a lot of setsockopt calls when the tos doesn't change.
13 - honor disabled even on initial connect attempt. 84 - honor disabled even on initial connect attempt.
14 - changed callback mechanism to be slightly less portable 85 - changed callback mechanism to be slightly less portable
15 but more efficient mechanism (standards-compliant c++ compilers 86 but more efficient mechanism (standards-compliant c++ compilers
16 should work). 87 should work).
88 - increased receive window positive size, to allow for massive
89 packet loss due to occasional longer drop-outs.
90 - send RST when a positive window size violation is detected, but
91 not in other cases, to reconnect more quickly.
17 - upgraded liblzf to version 3.2. 92 - upgraded liblzf to version 3.4.
18 - dropped -fno-exceptions due to ev++.h using it. 93 - dropped -fno-exceptions due to ev++.h using it.
19 - node-up/Down scripts are now run in sequence. 94 - node-up/down scripts are now run in sequence.
95 - new -q switch for gvpectrl, for when you run it often.
96 - work around the horribly inconsistent, ad-hoc, ever-changing
97 and broken texinfo syntax. YMMV. avoid texinfo.
98 - keepalive is more aggressive now, sensding ping's every 3 seconds
99 and killing the conenction after 15 seconds.
20 - bugfixes. 100 - bugfixes.
