Hello,

A new snapshot, `0.0.20170115`, has been tagged in the git repository.

Please note that this snapshot is, like the rest of the project at this point
in time, experimental, and does not consitute a real release that would be
considered secure and bug-free. WireGuard is generally thought to be fairly
stable, and most likely will not crash your computer (though it may).
However, as this is a pre-release snapshot, it comes with no guarantees, and
its security is not yet to be depended on; it is not applicable for CVEs.

With all that said, if you'd like to test this snapshot out, there are a
few relevent changes.

== Changes ==

  * tools: wg-quick: enforce good permissions
  * tools: wg-quick: parse IPv6 endpoints correctly
  * tools: wg-quick: better removal of suppress_prefix rule
  
  The former is good practice, in the likes of SSH's warnings. The
  latter two are bug fixes.
  
  * tools: error on short ret reads
  * tools: ipc: read from socket incrementally
  * uapi: add missing userspace headers
  * uapi: use flag instead of C bitfield for portability
  * uapi: use sockaddr union instead of sockaddr_storage
  
  This makes the UAPI a bit more portable across languages, which assists
  with the Go implementation efforts.
  
  * config: useless newline
  * Use __read_mostly attribute when possible
  
  General code quality improvements.
  
  * ratelimiter: 800ms too fast, decrease to 2s sustained rate
  
  There's no need to allow 800ms handshakes, when there's already bursting
  and when more than 1 every 5 seconds is already too much, when under DoS.

As always, the source is available at https://git.zx2c4.com/WireGuard/ and
