Subject: V2.0.8

I put out 2.0.8 which should fix the axp checksum routines (there are
obviously other fixes there too, ppp fragmentation etc), but it seems
ftp.funet.fi isn't feeling too well today and it has lost my password or
something so I'm unable to upload it there. It's on ftp.cs.helsinki.fi,
though.

I also noticed that my harddisk on "linux.cs.helsinki.fi" (which is where
I keep the primary development sources) seems to be going, so keep your
fingers crossed. I thought I'd better upload what I have now, rather than
notice that I lost everything when I get back to work on Monday..

(Only wimps use tape backup: _real_ men just upload their important stuff
on ftp, and let the rest of the world mirror it ;)
