+Version 1.0pre5 released.
+
+* Security enhancements:
+  * Added sequence number and optional message authentication code to the packets.
+  * Configurable encryption cipher and digest algorithms. 
+* More robust handling of dis- and reconnects.
+* Added a "switch" and a "hub" mode to allow bridging setups.
+* Preliminary support for routing of IPv6 packets.
+* Supports Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD and Solaris. 
+
+Again, due to large changes in the protocols this version does not work
+together with older versions. Also, some configuration variables have changed
+names, most notably you will have to replace TapDevice by Device.
