3 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: no longer enable udp protocol if no other
4 protocols are enabled - this is necessary when you have nodes with
5 completely unknown protocols, to force mediated connection requests.
6 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: dns transport protocol bumped to version 2.
7 - core protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
8 - fix a bug where nodes would tell the other side that it supports
9 the same protocols as that other side, instead of its own.
10 - add zlib when found, as openssl depends on it in newer versions.
11 - work around append-bugs in uclibc by using an extra seek.
12 - new "include" directive for the config file.
13 - major, but incremental, dns transport improvements:
14 - do not simply abort in some error cases in the dns transport,
15 but try to recover.
16 - allow lowercase/uppercase alises for base-n encodings that do
17 not rely on case.
18 - use base26 instead of base22 encoding for dns syn's, and
19 base36 instead of base22 for headers (saves one byte/packet).
20 - back off far quicker in dns tunnel when idling - increases
21 latency on an idle link somewhat, but avoids hundreds of
22 needless packets.
23 - poll more aggressively when idling in dns (poll once per
24 second as opposed to once per 5 seconds).

262.24 Sat Feb 12 05:15:48 CET 2011
27 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
28 - due to a bug, when packets were lost, a connection could go into a
29 state where a ping/connection request from another node would be
30 ignored, leading to connections not being re-established.
31 - due to a bug, compression was almost always enabled.
32 - enable-max-mtu was actually enable-mtu, contrary to documentation.
33 - add nfmark support.
34 - add node-change script support.
35 - new DESTSI variable for node-xxx scripts.
36 - updated codingstyle a bit, declared truly static stuff as static.
37 - clarify compression docs.
38
392.22 Sun Feb 1 17:25:28 CET 2009
40 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
41 - enabled icmp/tcp/http-proxy protocols by default.
42 - updated copyright in program greetings.
43 - fix some configure messages.
44 - updated to libev 3.52.

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

522.2 Mon Sep 1 06:28:09 CEST 2008
53 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
54 but upgrade is recommended to due changed ondemand behaviour.
55 - new per-node options max-ttl and max-queue.
56 - convert from iom.C to libev, a high-performance event loop
57 (http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev).
58 - tcp connections were leaking in some cases.
59 - retry more aggressively (once/s) to establish a connection if
60 new packets arrive for it.
61 - save a lot of setsockopt calls when the tos doesn't change.
62 - honor disabled even on initial connect attempt.
63 - changed callback mechanism to be slightly less portable
64 but more efficient mechanism (standards-compliant c++ compilers
65 should work).
66 - increased receive window positive size, to allow for massive
67 packet loss due to occasional longer drop-outs.
68 - send RST when a positive window size violation is detected, but
69 not in other cases, to reconnect more quickly.
70 - upgraded liblzf to version 3.4.
71 - dropped -fno-exceptions due to ev++.h using it.
72 - node-up/down scripts are now run in sequence.
73 - new -q switch for gvpectrl, for when you run it often.
74 - work around the horribly inconsistent, ad-hoc, ever-changing
75 and broken texinfo syntax. YMMV. avoid texinfo.
76 - keepalive is more aggressive now, sensding ping's every 3 seconds
77 and killing the conenction after 15 seconds.
78 - bugfixes.

4 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases. 81 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
5 - bugfix of callback.h, might have cause callback return values to 82 - bugfix of callback.h, might have cause callback return values to
6 be corrupted on architectures like sparc before. 83 be corrupted on architectures like sparc before.
