Hi All,

ConnMan 0.64 is out and was released on November 26, 2010

We once again pushed more than 120 commits for this new release, and the
interesting parts are:

- Tethering initial support: By toggling the ConnMan manager Tethering
boolean property, all tethering technologies will switch to tethering mode.
While only Bluetooth is supported for now, we're planning to add USB for 0.65.
Once tethering is on, a bridge is created and IP packets are forwarded to the
default interface. If there is no such interface, all tethering clients will
be able to talk to each other through the tethering bridge.

- DHCP server: Our gdhcp DHCP library now supports server mode, and this is
directly used by the tethering framework.

- iptables library: We added an iptables library in order to avoid spawning
iptables binaries. This is also needed and used by the tethering framework.

- DNS proxy fixes: Thanks to David Woodhouse (Intel), we managed to fix some
nasty DNS proxy bugs, especially for the TCP over DNS parts.

- Service name update: ConnMan D-Bus API moved from the org.moblin.connman
domain to the net.connman one.

- Device and Network D-Bus interfaces removal: Those 2 interfaces were
exposing some low level and mostly useless details. They are now gone.

- ISC dhclient plugin removal: Our gdhcp based DHCP client proved to be both
reliable and fast, so we decided it was time to get rid of dependencies and
code by dropping the ISC DHCP client support.

- Bug fixes: Mostly thanks to Leena Gunda (Wipro), we managed to fix a bunch
of bug: 8074 [1], 9178 [2], 9735 [3], 9834 [4], 9960 [5], 9985 [6], 9995 [7],
10205 [8], 10302 [9], 10330 [10].

We provide signed tarballs for ConnMan 0.64 [11] [12], and you can also get
the latest code from our latest git tree [13].

Cheers,
Samuel.
