ANNOUNCEMENT: Libbgpdump 1.3.1 Beta Released

[Apologies for duplicate emails]

Dear All,

Libbgpdump 1.3.1 beta is now available on the RIS web site. The previous release was 1.1, as 1.2 only provided some intermediate
IPv6 supporting features.

Notable changes since 1.1:

- IPv6 support
   IPv6 should be supported for all record types that were supported
   in libbgpdump 1.1. This naturally includes both RIB and update
   dumps. IPv6 support can be turned off at compile time for machines
   that don't have the necessary headers.

- Better handling of corrupt data
   The previous version would exhibit non-deterministic behaviour, e.g.
   segfaulting or going into infinite loops, when encountering corrupt
   data. This version should work properly and never segfault (if it
   does, yell! ;)). This also means it should not choke in the face of
   the old "update truncated at 4096 bytes" Zebra bug.

- Compressed file support 
   Libbgpdump can now read gzip compressed files and accept gzip compressed
   streams on stdin. Please note that this requires you to link with zlib, 
   even if you don't plan to use compressed files. The default configuration 
   is now to build a shared library. This can be changed by editing the 
   makefile.

Libbgpdump 1.3.1 beta can be downloaded from URL: http://www.ris.ripe.net/source/. 

Please send your bug reports to mailto:ris at ripe.net.

Best regards,
The RIS team
