The Avahi team would like to announce the immediate availability of
Avahi 0.4 'Hyvää päivää'

Avahi is a fully LGPL framework for Multicast DNS Service Discovery.
It allows programs to publish and discover services and hosts
running on a local network with no specific configuration.  For
example you can plug into a network and instantly find printers to
print to, files to look at and people to talk to.

For more information about Avahi, please visit our home page

Here is a list of highlights / changes in this release

 * Renamed the include dirs for the Qt bindings to include the
   version number, as they may diverge in future.
 * Fix a critical bug in avahi-daemon triggered by configuring an interface
   with various DHCP clients when you have no other active addresses which
   caused avahi-daemon to abort.
 * Move to using python-gdbm exclusivly for the service type database.
 * Add support for SUSE
 * Various fixes to the build system

Cheers,
The Avahi Team
