5These notes mostly belong to charon, the new IKEv2 daemon. The plan is to
6migrate IKEv1 into charon. It's hard to say how much effort is needed to
7do that, and how much code we can reuse from pluto. But a port IS necessary to
8gain hassle-free confiugration, version negotiation and maintainability.
