With pleasure we announce the release of tinc version 1.1pre10. Here is a
summary of the changes:

 * Added a benchmark tool (sptps_speed) for the new protocol.

 * Fixed a crash when using Name = $HOST while $HOST is not set.

 * Use AES-256-GCM for the new protocol.

 * Updated support for Solaris.

 * Allow running tincd without a private ECDSA key present when
   ExperimentalProtocol is not explicitly set.

 * Enable various compiler hardening flags by default.

 * Added support for a "conf.d" configuration directory.

 * Fix tinc-gui on Windows, also allowing it to connect to a 32-bits tincd when
   tinc-gui is run in a 64-bits Python environment.

 * Added a "ListenAddress" option, which like BindToAddress adds more listening
   address/ports, but doesn't bind to them for outgoing sockets.

 * Make invitations work better when the "invite" and "join" commands are not
   run interactively.

 * When creating meta-connections to a node for which no Address statement is
   specified, try to use addresses learned from other nodes.

Thanks to Dennis Joachimsthaler and Florent Clairambault for their contribution
to this version of tinc.

Please note that although tinc 1.1pre10 is backwards compatible with tinc 1.0.x,
it is NOT compatible with tinc 1.1pre1 through 1.1pre9.
