Hello,

A new snapshot, `0.0.20180304`, 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 ==

  * NOTICE: off the grid
  
  Do note that I'll be going off the grid from the end of this coming week until
  April 1. This snapshot is expected to be fairly stable in the interim.
  
  * queueing: skb_reset: mark as xnet
  
  This allows cgroups to classify packets.
  
  * contrib: embedded-wg-library: add ability to add and del interfaces
  * contrib: embedded-wg-library: add key generation functions
  
  The embeddable library gains a few extra tricks, for people implementing
  plugins for various network managers.
  
  * crypto: read only after init
  * allowedips: fix comment style
  * messages: MESSAGE_TOTAL is unused
  * global: in gnu code, use un-underscored asm
  * noise: fix function prototype
  
  Small cleanups.
  
  * compat: workaround netlink refcount bug
  
  An upstream refcounting bug meant that in certain situations it became
  impossible to unload the module. So, we work around it in the compat code. The
  problem has been fixed in 4.16.
  
  * contrib: keygen-html: rewrite in pure javascript
  * Revert "contrib: keygen-html: rewrite in pure javascript"
  
  We nearly moved away from emscripten'ing the fiat32 code, but the resultant
  floating point javascript was just too terrifying.
  
  * Kconfig: require DST_CACHE explicitly
  
  Required for certain frankenkernels.
  
  * compat: use correct -include path
  
  Fixes certain out-of-tree build systems.
  
  * noise: align static_identity keys
  
  Gives us better alignment of private keys.
  
  * wg-quick: if resolvconf/interface-order exists, use it
  * wg-quick: if resolvconf/run/iface exists, use it
  
  Better compatibility with Debian's resolvconf.
  
  * contrib: add extract-handshakes kprobe example
  
  Small utility for extracting ephemeral key data from the kernel's memory. More
