[Babel-users] ANNOUNCE: Babel 0.8

[Juliusz Chroboczek]

Dear all,

Babel 0.8 is now available from

    http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/files/babel-0.8.tar.gz

This version fixe a serious bug that would sometimes spuriously
discard perfectly good IPv4 routes in dense networks.  It also adds
support for non-default routing tables, and makes IPv4 operation more
robust by checking for changes in IPv4 addresses.  Finally, it adds an
option to disable a number of optimisations specific to wired networks
for people who insist on bridging wired and wireless interfaces together.

Enjoy,

                                        Juliusz

8 February 2008: babel 0.8

  * Babel will now automatically check for interfaces' up/down status,
    IPv4 address, and optionally for carrier sense.
  * Implemented the -w option, which disables all optimisations for
    wired interfaces.
  * Implemented support for non-default routing tables.
  * Fixed a bug that could spuriously remove IPv4 routes (thanks to
    Julien Cristau).
