A new major release is available:
	https://fast.dpdk.org/rel/dpdk-19.02.tar.xz

If this release happened earlier, it would be called 19.01 :-)
Thanks to a reduced scope and good respect of the targets,
it is ready on the first day of the month for the very first time!
Indeed it is a short release after the huge 18.11:
	566 commits from 116 authors
	627 files changed, 80426 insertions(+), 6659 deletions(-)

Below are some new features:
	- networking driver for Intel E810
	- virtio packed ring
	- library for IPsec
	- tool for compression performance test
