This the third release candidate for 2.4.0.  Anything that doesn't live
up to the expectations on a stable release should be reported before
this turns into the real 2.4.0.  We hope to release 2.4.0 within a week
or two.  I'm going away a few days, but will be back next Monday.  If
there has been no reports then, perhaps I can release 2.4.0 early next
week....

The goals for the 2.3.x branch are tracked at:

http://trac.gnutls.org/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/milestone/gnutls-2.4

Alas, the spammers have found our trac site so it is almost useless. :(
Hopefully I can move it to another host soon...  Is anyone interested in
helping to admin it?  Can anyone sponsor a VPS to run this on?  Help!

More ideas are welcome, just create a new ticket.

No Windows binaries for this release because the openpgp-certs self-test
failed under Wine, I'll investigate and fix before 2.4.0.

Improving GnuTLS is costly, but you can help!  We are looking for
organizations that find GnuTLS useful and wish to contribute back.
You can contribute by reporting bugs, improve the software, or donate
money or equipment.

Commercial support contracts for GnuTLS are available, and they help
finance continued maintenance.  Simon Josefsson Datakonsult, a
Stockholm based privately held company, is currently funding GnuTLS
maintenance.  We are always looking for interesting development
projects.  See http://josefsson.org/ for more details.
