developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.

in PR 30378.
version 1.0.4 May 4 2005
* Fix switch and hub modes.
* Optionally start scripts when a Subnet becomes (un)reachable.
version 1.0.3 Nov 11 2004
* Show error message when failing to write a PID file.
* Ignore spaces at end of lines in config files.
* Fix handling of late packets.

anything on tap devices as long as the underlying OS supports it.
* Handle IPv6 on Solaris tun devices.
* Allow tinc to work properly under Windows XP SP2.
* Allow VLAN tagged Ethernet frames in switch and hub mode.
* Experimental PMTUDiscovery, TunnelServer and BlockingTCP options.
version 1.0.2 Nov 8 2003

tinc is a Virtual Private Network (VPN) daemon that uses tunnelling and
encryption to create a secure private network between hosts on the Internet.
Because the VPN appears to the IP level network code as a normal network
device, there is no need to adapt any existing software. This allows VPN
sites to share information with each other over the Internet without exposing
any information to others. In addition, tinc has the following features:
o Encryption, authentication and compression
All traffic is optionally compressed using zlib or LZO, and OpenSSL is
used to encrypt the traffic and protect it from alteration with message
authentication codes and sequence numbers.
o Automatic full mesh routing
Regardless of how you set up the tinc daemons to connect to each
other, VPN traffic is always (if possible) sent directly to the
destination, without going through intermediate hops.
o Easily expand your VPN
When you want to add nodes to your VPN, all you have to do is add an extra
configuration file, there is no need to start new daemons or create and
configure new devices or network interfaces.
o Ability to bridge ethernet segments
You can link multiple ethernet segments together to work like a single
segment, allowing you to run applications and games that normally only work
on a LAN over the Internet.
