This version is mostly a bug fix release. It fixes a bug that could cause
the service to crash on Windows while running the GUI application. It also
contains a number of fixes to the Linux installer and Linux support for
systemd-based init systems.
It also includes a minor tweak to the multicast algorithm. Version 1.0.0
sent multicasts in a deterministic order, while this version randomizes
the order. The vast majority of users will notice nothing, but this may result
in superior coverage for service announcements on very large networks. It's
a hard variation to test, so we're releasing like this to gather information
from users about the effect. Nothing will change on small networks, and
ordinary multicast functions like ARP and NDP should be unaffected.
The next version will likely focus on additional improvements to Microsoft
Windows support, since there are several known Windows issues in need of
attention. We're working on an NDIS6-based Tap driver that should address
the driver issues experienced by a small number of Windows 7 users.
