[Babel-users] ANNOUNCE: babeld-1.1.1

[Juliusz Chroboczek]

Dear all,

Babeld-1.1.1 is available at

  http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/files/babeld-1.1.1.tar.gz
  http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/files/babeld-1.1.1.tar.gz.asc

For more information about the Babel routing protocol, please see

  http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/babel/

The main reason for this version is that it fixes some bugs in the
message parser, bugs that could potentially be remotely vulnerable.
Thanks to the Wireshark team for finding those.

There is also one incompatible change: the default hello interval on
wired links is now 4 seconds, just like on wireless links; the previous
value was confusing a lot of people, who appear to be used to OLSR's
time constants.  If you liked the previous value, please run babeld with
the ``-H 20'' flag on the command line.

Enjoy,

-- Juliusz

  * Fixed two bugs in the message parser that could cause IPv4 updates to
    get lost.

    to change (thanks to Gabriel Kerneis).
  * INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the default wired hello interval is now 4 seconds.
  * Ported to Bionic libc.
