This is a significant release of OpenIPMI 2.0 for two main reasons:

 * This release is able to host openhpi-2.2.1 as-is.  Tested
   and operational.

 * This release has a GUI.

The GUI is still a work in progress, but is quite functional.  It
requires that wxPython GTK be installed, but that is the only real
requirement.  There is no documentation yet, but you can save the
current state (including all window sizes and domains) and it will
auto-restore upon the next start.  And remember that right-click in the
tree view is your friend.

This release should be 100% backwards-compatible with OpenIPMI-1.4 with
all bug fixes that the 1.4 version has.

Note that openhpi requires a patch to be installed to support RMCP+. 
Patch is attached with the release and named openhpi-2.2.1-rmcp+.patch,
although there is no guarantee that it is in exactly the form that will
go into the real openhpi release.

Note that the next release of 2.0 will probably be stable and 1.4 will
go on the back burner with only bug fixes.

then to downloads, and download it under experimental releases.
