[Announcement] Tinc version 1.1pre11 released

[Guus Sliepen]

With pleasure we announce the release of tinc version 1.1pre11. Here is
a summary of the changes:

 * Added a "network" command to list or switch networks.

 * Switched to Ed25519 keys and the ChaCha-Poly1305 cipher for the new
   protocol.

 * AutoConnect is now a boolean option, when enabled tinc always tries
   to keep at least three meta-connections open.

 * The new protocol now uses UDP much more often.

 * Tinc "del" and "get" commands now return a non-zero exit code when
   they don't find the requested variable.

 * Updated documentation.

 * Added a "DeviceStandby" option to defer running tinc-up until a
   working connection is made, and which on Windows will also change the
   network interface link status accordingly.

 * Tinc now tells the resolver to reload /etc/resolv.conf when it
   receives SIGALRM.

 * Improved error messages and event loop handling on Windows.

 * LocalDiscovery now uses local address learned from other nodes, and
   is enabled by default.

 * Added a "BroadcastSubnet" option to change the behavior of broadcast
   packets in router mode.

 * Added support for dotted quad notation in IPv6 (e.g. ::1.2.3.4).

 * Improved format of printed Subnets, MAC and IPv6 addresses.

 * Added a "--batch" option to force the tinc CLI to run in
   non-interactive mode.

 * Improve default Device selection on *BSD and Mac OS X.

 * Allow running tinc without RSA keys.

Thanks to Etienne Dechamps, Sven-Haegar Koch, William A. Kennington III,
Baptiste Jonglez, Alexis Hildebrandt, Armin Fisslthaler, Franz Pletz,
Alexander Ried and Saverio Proto for their contributions to this version
of tinc.

Please note that although tinc 1.1pre11 is backwards compatible with
tinc 1.0.x, it is NOT compatible with tinc 1.1pre1 through 1.1pre10.
