Echolot 2.1.7 released
======================

This is a minor bugfix release, mostly for the debian package.

Changes since 2.1.6:
        * debian: Add disable and enable to allowed commands in init
          script
        * debian: Create echolot user group in proper gid space.
        * debian: remove debconf stuff.
        * handle empty environment better - previously we would whine
          when HOME or PATH were not set.

Enjoy!

About Echolot
=============

Echolot <http://www.palfrader.org/echolot/> is a pinger for anonymous
remailers.

A Pinger in the context of anonymous remailers is a program that
regularly sends messages through remailers to determine their status.
Based on the responses, the Pinger calculates reliability statistics
which may be used by remailer clients to choose a chain of remailers to
use.

Furthermore, Echolot collects configuration parameters and keys of
remailers and offers the collected information in a format readable by
remailer clients.  This helps reduce the administration effort required
to use or host remailers.
