Versions 2.6.1 to 2.6.6 were bugfix releases to the initial netcfg 2.6. * initial support for IPv6 configuration * more detailed wireless options (ad-hoc mode, network by BSSID) * more options for bridge connections * a ROUTES array to define custom routes in profiles * a configuration file /etc/conf.d/netcfg which is currently only used by net- auto-wireless * new connection types: openvpn, vlan, tuntap * a manpage netcfg-profiles(5) detailing available options More details about the changes and links to the bug tracker entries can be found in the [NEWS file][1]. Old profiles are expected to remain compatible. Please read optional dependency list to know what to install for your particular configuration. More features, mostly requested and contributed on the [bug tracker][2] will be added for release 2.7. Discussion about netcfg development and features now happens on [arch-projects][3] mailing-list.
