version.m4, ChangeLog, Changes.rst
Changes.rst has not received an "2.7_alpha3" section - it has the
"highlevel" overview of what is new in 2.7, but for alpha/beta releases
it's better to look at git log to see what has been added/fixed.
New features alpha2 -> alpha3 are
- --dns-updown script for macOS
- client-side support for PUSH_UPDATE handling
- support for floating TLS clients when DCO is active
(handling float notifications sent from kernel to userland)
- use of user-defined routing tables on Linux
- PQE support for WolfSSL
Besides new features, alpha3 sees a rewrite of the way kernel events
are handled by the linux DCO module, because under certain circumstances
notifications could get lost, leading to problems later.
