SmoothWall 0.9.6

SmoothWall 0.9.6 was released on Wednesday 06th December 2000.

Here is the official release note from Lawrence.

	Date: Thu, 7 Dec 2000 01:56:45 +0000 (GMT)
	From: "Lawrence Manning" <lawrence@aslak.demon.co.uk>
	To: <smoothwall-talk@lists.sourceforge.net>
	Cc: <smoothwall-announce@lists.sourceforge.net>
	Subject: [Smoothwall-talk] 0.9.6 is on sourceforge

	Hi Smoothies,

	Finally, you can go get it.

	For people worried about downloading a good copy (you sensible people),
	here is the file data for the iso:

	filename: smoothwall-cdrom-0.9.6.iso
	size: 21123072 byte
	md5sum: db3c07bc6ad2b80f809b184f99019d83

	The ISO does NOT include source or kit tarballs, they are seperate
	downloads.  There's a new isdn-kit for people who want to play with ISDN
	cards. It contains hopefully enough bits for people to attempt to get
	there ISDN cards working with smoothwall.  It is by no means complete,
	finished, or even properly tested, but it is a START.  A README describes
	very quickly what to do.

	Release notes: (this really IS the notes for 0.9.6, honest.  It's 2am, and
	I really am too tired to edit them AGAIN.  The only interesting bit is
	the list of fixes and new stuff anyway).
