Avahi 0.6.14
============
Changes:
* Add new daemon "avahi-autoipd" which is an implementation of
- IPv4LL as defined in RFC3927. While it is not the first
- implemenatation of this technology for Free operating systems it
- is clearly the most powerful and hopefully even the most
- secure. (Because it chroot()s and drops priviliges and suchlike)
- For more information, especially about packaging this new tool for
- distributions, please make sure to read:
