That's right -- Beta 2! (Beta 1 was uploaded but never announced).

Beta 2 has one additional defect repair beyond what is in 4.4.8.1 and these
new features:

1)  The compiler now auto-detects bridges for the purpose of setting
    the 'routeback' option. Auto-detection is disabled when compiling
    for export (-e option); note that -e is implicit in the 'load' and
    'reload' commands.

2)  When 'trace' is specified on a command that involves the compiler
    (e.g., shorewall trace check), the compiler now creates a trace to
    standard output.

    Trace entries are of three types:

    Input  --- begin with IN===>.     Input read from configuration
                                      files. Comments have been
                                      stripped, continuation lines
                                      combined and shell variables
                                      expanded.

    Output --- begin with GS----->.   Text written to the generated
                                      script.

    Netfilter -- begin with NF-(x)->. Updates to the compiler's chain
                                      table, where 'x' is one of the
                                      following:

        N - Create a chain.
        A - Append a rule to a chain.
        R - Replace a rule in a chain.
        I - Inserted a rule into a chain.
        T - Shell source text appended/inserted into a chain --
            converted into rules at run-time.
        D - Deleted Rule from a chain
        C - Compressed the rules array for a chain to remove deleted
            rules. This renumbers the remaining rules.
        X - Deleted a chain

    Netfilter trace records indicate the table and chain being
    changed. If the change involves a particular rule, then the rule
    number is also included.

    Example (append the first rule to the filter FORWARD chain):

        NF-(A)-> filter:FORWARD:1

    If the trace record involves the chain itself, then no rule number
    is present.

    Example (Delete the mangle tcpost chain):

        NF-(X)-> mangle:tcpost

3)  Thanks to Vincent Smeets, there is now an IPv6 mDNS macro.

Happy testing,
-Tom
