-* Planned for the future
-
-New configuration syntax for netlinks: basic 'netlink' closure yields
-a pure closure that can be applied in each site() to generate a
-netlink for that site (with routes, options, etc.). Works well for
-point-to-point: that netlink can be used directly by just one site.
-Much cleaner separation between site() and netlink code this way.
-
-(Backward compatibility will be kept for a while.)
-
-* New in version 0.1.9
-
-The netlink code may now generate ICMP responses to ICMP messages that
-are not errors, eg. ICMP echo-request. This makes Windows NT
-traceroute output look a little less strange.
-
-configure.in and config.h.bot now define uint32_t etc. even on systems
-without stdint.h and inttypes.h (needed for Solaris 2.5.1)
-
-GNU getopt is included for systems that lack it.
-
-We check for LOG_AUTHPRIV before trying to use it in log.c (Solaris
-2.5.1 doesn't have it.)
-
-Portable snprintf.c from http://www.ijs.si/software/snprintf/ is
-included for systems that lack snprintf/vsnprintf.
-
-make-secnet-sites.py renamed to make-secnet-sites and now installed in
-$prefix/sbin/make-secnet-sites; ipaddr.py library installed in
-$prefix/share/secnet/ipaddr.py. make-secnet-sites searches
-/usr/local/share/secnet and /usr/share/secnet for ipaddr.py
-
-* New in version 0.1.8
-
-Netlink devices now support a 'point-to-point' mode. In this mode the
-netlink device does not require an IP address; instead, the IP address
-of the other end of the tunnel is specified using the 'ptp-address'
-option. Precisely one site must be configured to use the netlink
-device. (I haven't had a chance to test this because 0.1.8 turned into
-a 'quick' release to enable secnet to cope with the network problems
-affecting connections going via LINX on 2001-10-16.)
-
-The tunnel code in site.c now initiates a key setup if the
-reverse-transform function fails (wrong key, bad MAC, too much skew,
-etc.) - this should make secnet more reliable on dodgy links, which
-are much more common than links with active attackers... (an attacker
-can now force a new key setup by replaying an old packet, but apart
-from minor denial of service on slow links or machines this won't
-achieve them much). This should eventually be made configurable.
-
-The sequence number skew detection code in transform.c now only
-complains about 'reverse skew' - replays of packets that are too
-old. 'Forward skew' (gaps in the sequence numbers of received packets)
-is now tolerated silently, to cope with large amounts of packet loss.
