Hello,

A new snapshot, `0.0.20180413`, has been tagged in the git repository.

Please note that this snapshot is, like the rest of the project at this point
in time, experimental, and does not consitute a real release that would be
considered secure and bug-free. WireGuard is generally thought to be fairly
stable, and most likely will not crash your computer (though it may).
However, as this is a pre-release snapshot, it comes with no guarantees, and
its security is not yet to be depended on; it is not applicable for CVEs.

With all that said, if you'd like to test this snapshot out, there are a
few relevent changes.

== Changes ==

  * wg-quick.8: fix typo
  * wg-quick: hide errors on save
  
  This fixes a small regression in the resolvconf save handling on Debian.
  
  * compat: stable kernels are now receiving b87b619
  * compat: silence warning on frankenkernels
  * compat: support OpenSUSE 15
  
  Usual set of fixes for weird kernels.
  
  * curve25519: use precomp implementation instead of sandy2x
  * curve25519: use cmov instead of xor for cswap
  * curve25519: memzero in batches
  * curve25519: precomp const correctness
  
  Rather than using sandy2x, which requires use of the vector registers and simd
  instructions (and therefore thermal throttling and register save/restores), we
  instead use BMI2 and ADX instructions to achieve better performance, using:
    - https://eprint.iacr.org/2017/264
    - https://github.com/armfazh/rfc7748_precomputed
  
  * curve25519: add self tests from wycheproof
  * chacha20poly1305: add self tests from wycheproof
  
  Wycheproof now provides sneaky test vectors, so we've imported them into our
  self-tests to mitigate regressions. More info can be found at:
    - https://github.com/google/wycheproof
