Hello,

A new snapshot, `0.0.20171127`, 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 ==

  * compat: support timespec64 on old kernels
  * compat: support AVX512BW+VL by lying
  * compat: fix typo and ranges
  * compat: support 4.15's netlink and barrier changes
  * poly1305-avx512: requires AVX512F+VL+BW
  
  Numerous compat fixes which should keep us supporting 3.10-4.15-rc1.
  
  * blake2s: AVX512F+VL implementation
  * blake2s: tweak avx512 code
  * blake2s: hmac space optimization
  
  Another terrific submission from Samuel Neves: we now have an implementation
  of Blake2s using AVX512, which is extremely fast.
  
  * allowedips: optimize
  * allowedips: simplify
  * chacha20: directly assign constant and initial state
  
  Small performance tweaks.
  
  * tools: fix removing preshared keys
  * qemu: use netfilter.org https site
  * qemu: take shared lock for untarring
  
  Small bug fixes.
