Hi,

Now that WinPcap 4.0.1 is out a release of 0.99.pre3 is possible.

I would like to request holding off until I've got the debian packaging updates from Frederic Peters in, which I've got lined up in my working copy. Tomorrow morning, when I'm fresh and sober, I'll review them one last time before committing.

Thanx,
Jaap

 WinPcap 4.0.1 will be released early next week, which will fix the bug.
 I'd like to hold off on releasing 0.99.6 so that we can include WinPcap
4.0.1 with the Wireshark installer.

In the meantime I'll release 0.99.6pre2 tomorrow.
