[leafnode-list] PLEASE TEST: leafnode 1.11 release candidate #3 w/ IPv6

[Matthias Andree]

Greetings,

I have just let release candidate #3 of leafnode-1.11.0 out, grab it at
<http://home.pages.de/~mandree/leafnode/>.

It fixes (hopefully) Sourceforge Bug #1161551, "#" characters could not
be parts of passwords or usernames.

Please do test this release candidate, so we know if it works for you -
the IPv6 change is a bit sensitive on odd systems, and a major component
of the configuration parser had to be rewritten to support the quoted
strings.

IF you have tested this code, drop me a short mail saying that it worked
for you or it has not worked for you (preferably with error messages
From screen or log), and include the output of "uname -a".

Thanks.

Noteworthy changes:

- fetchnews now supports IPv6 (this causes the version bump to 1.11)

- the configuration parser now supports quoted strings on the right-hand
  side, so that # can be used in passwords. See the section
  CONFIGURATION in leafnode(8) for details.

Regards
