Hi Bird users,
a premature Christmas gift is here. We have a new version of your
popular routing daemon. Since this version could potentially break
some of you current installation and since it adds a new protocol -
BFD, this version has number 1.4.0. The branch 1.4.0 is meant to be
stable for production environment.
