+- TESTING RELEASE - this is the first public release of the client codebase,
+  so there are sure to be bugs to be found. In addition, if you're just using
+  the server portion, the final binary size probably will increase - I'll
+  be trying to get it back down in future releases.
+
+- Dropbear client added - lots of changes to the server code as well to 
+  generalise things
+
+- IPv6 support added for client, server, and forwarding
+
+- New makefile with more generic support for multiple-program binaries
