I am happy to announce GnuTLS 1.6.1! This is a bugfix-only release on the stable branch. This version is what we recommend for those who need a stable version of GnuTLS.
GnuTLS is a modern C library that implement the standard network security protocol Transport Layer Security (TLS), for use by network applications. GnuTLS is developed for GNU/Linux, but works on many Unix-like systems and comes with a binary installer for Windows. * Version 1.6.1 (released 2006-12-28) ** Fix the list of trusted CAs that server's send to clients. Before, the list contained issuer DN's instead of subject DN's of the trusted CAs. Reported by Max Kellermann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. ** Fix gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl to initialize the CRL before using it. Reported by Max Kellermann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. ** Encode UID fields in DN's as DirectoryString. Before GnuTLS encoded and parsed UID fields as IA5String. This was incorrect, it should have used DirectoryString. Now it will use DirectoryString for the UID field, but for backwards compatibility it will also accept IA5String UID's. Reported by Max Kellermann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. ** Fix ./configure failure with non-GCC compilers. This fixes the following error message: configure: error: conditional "HAVE_LD_OUTPUT_DEF" was never defined. Reported by "Michael C. Vergallen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. ** API and ABI modifications: No changes since last version. 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.
