The GnuTLS 2.9.x branch is NOT what you want for your stable system.  It
is intended for developers and experienced users.

Things on my radar before we can release 2.10.0:
- Someone please build and report about Solaris and Mac OS X status
- Sanity check by installing it as the system GnuTLS on a GNU/Linux
  system and make sure normal things still appear to work

Here are the compressed sources (7.2MB):

Improving GnuTLS is costly, but you can help!  We are looking for
organizations that find GnuTLS useful and wish to contribute back.  You
can contribute by reporting bugs, improve the software, or donate money
or equipment.

Commercial support contracts for GnuTLS are available, and they help
finance continued maintenance.  Simon Josefsson Datakonsult AB, a
Stockholm based privately held company, is currently funding GnuTLS
maintenance.  We are always looking for interesting development
projects.  See http://josefsson.org/ for more details.

* Version 2.9.11 (released 2010-06-07)

** libgnutls: Removed two APIs related to safe renegotiation.
Use priority strings instead.  The APIs were
gnutls_safe_negotiation_set_initial and gnutls_safe_renegotiation_set.
(Remember that we don't promise ABI stability during development
series, so this doesn't cause an shared library ABI increment.)

** tests: More self testing of safe renegotiation extension.
See tests/safe-renegotiation/README for more information.

** doc: a PDF version of the API reference manual (GTK-DOC) is now built.

** doc: Terms 'GNUTLS' and 'GNU TLS' were changed to 'GnuTLS' for consistency.

** API and ABI modifications:
gnutls_safe_negotiation_set_initial: REMOVED.
gnutls_safe_renegotiation_set: REMOVED.
