-This is a development snapshot of work in progress on version 2.0 of
-the Internet Software Consortium DHCP Distribution. In version 2.0,
-this distribution includes a DHCP server, a DHCP client, and a
-BOOTP/DHCP relay agent. The engineering snapshot has become a lot
-more stable since the last snapshot, and will soon go into beta.
-However, DHCP server users running a production environment should
-probably still use the latest version on the 1.0 release branch, which
-is more stable, having been in a feature freeze since November of
-1996.
