The main features of tinc 1.1 are the improved security over +tinc 1.0, and a much nicer interface that makes it very easy to set up new +VPNs, and allows you to easily get live information from a running VPN. Tinc +1.1 will also feature an invitation protocol which allows you to easily invite +others to join a VPN, by simply giving them an invitation URL that you can +create with a simple command. No central servers are involved, invitees will +directly connect to your own tinc node to redeem invitations. The invitation +protocol will be available in the 1.1pre8 release. + +Tinc is the work of many people.
