3TODO: libev update? 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 - switch to using RSA_generate_key_ex, which is the undocumented
15 and needlessly more complicated replacement for the RSA_generate_key
16 function which is now deprecated.
17 - change public exponent for rsa keys from 65535 to 65537, for
18 efficiency reasons.
19 - nodes would sometimes declare transport endpoints valid despite
20 the protocol not being configured locally.
21 - core protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
22 - new global configuration options: chroot, chuser, chuid, chgid,
23 to chroot to a specified or anonymous new root, and change user id.
24 - prefer inet_aton over gethostbyname, as the latter is not guaranteed
25 to "resolve" literal ip addresses.
26 - configure didn't detect openssl 1.0 because SHA1_version became private
27 (patch by TANIGUCHI Takaki).
28 - fix a bug where nodes would tell the other side that it supports
29 the same protocols as that other side, instead of its own.
30 - add zlib when found, as openssl depends on it in newer versions.
31 - work around append-bugs in uclibc by using an extra seek.
32 - new "include" directive for the config file.
33 - gvpectrl no longer evaluates any "on" directives.
34 - icmp and rawip protocols weren't upgradable to each other.
35 - major, but incremental, dns transport improvements:
36 - do not simply abort in some error cases in the dns transport,
37 but try to recover.
38 - allow lowercase/uppercase alises for base-n encodings that do
39 not rely on case.
40 - use base26 instead of base22 encoding for dns syn's, and
41 base36 instead of base22 for headers (saves one byte/packet).
42 - back off far quicker in dns tunnel when idling - increases
43 latency on an idle link somewhat, but avoids hundreds of
44 needless packets.
45 - poll more aggressively when idling in dns (poll once per
46 second as opposed to once per 5 seconds).
47 - reduce dns send payload size to allow greater rate of ack
48 messages (should help sack and ipv6).
49 - allow for ip options in rawip/icmp transports, even though gvpe
50 doesn't generate them.
51 - upgrade to libev 4 API.

532.24 Sat Feb 12 05:15:48 CET 2011
54 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
55 - due to a bug, when packets were lost, a connection could go into a
56 state where a ping/connection request from another node would be
57 ignored, leading to connections not being re-established.
58 - due to a bug, compression was almost always enabled.
59 - enable-max-mtu was actually enable-mtu, contrary to documentation.
60 - add nfmark support.
61 - add node-change script support.
62 - new DESTSI variable for node-xxx scripts.
63 - updated codingstyle a bit, declared truly static stuff as static.
64 - clarify compression docs.
