I released libnl 0.5.0 today introducing address, routing,
and routing rules support, various cleanups, more callbacks
to customize message parsers, support for non-blocking
sockets and a complete API reference in HTML and PostScript.
About 70% of the features have been implemented of what
I would call the basics needed for a feature freeze
to let things stabilize for a 1.0 version.
