We are happy to announce the release of ipvsadm v1.27.

 ipvsadm is a utility to administer the kernels IPVS/LVS load-balancer service

It have been quite a while since the last release of ipvsadm, as v1.26
were released on February 8, 2011.  Since then, the source code
repository have been converted into git.

This is the first released based on the kernel.org git tree:
  https://git.kernel.org/cgit/utils/kernel/ipvsadm/ipvsadm.git/

You can download the tarballs from:
 https://kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/ipvsadm/

The older releases are also available via:
 http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/software/ipvs.html#kernel-2.6
 http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/software/kernel-2.6/

Maintainers:
 Simon Horman <horms@verge.net.au>
 Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com>
 Wensong Zhang <wensong@linux-vs.org>

The development have slowed down over the past years, as the tool and
kernel in this area have stabilized.  As can be seen by the shortlog
below, this release mostly contains bug fixes for existing features.

With one exception commit 3141694c (ipvsadm: support for scheduler flags)
by Alexander Frolkin, adds support for a new feature in kernel v3.11
introduced in kernel commit eba3b5a787 (ipvs: SH fallback and L4 hashing).
