Hello,

The GnuTLS 2.99.x branch is NOT what you want for your stable system.
It is intended for developers and experienced users.

This is an update release that includes features such as Datagram TLS
AES-GCM and more.

This release includes documentation for the usage of DTLS as part
of the main GnuTLS manual, but the major changes are summarized by
this commit:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gnutls.git;a=commitdiff;h=08a1b04b3d049a4a44132c0bce0c017c0c70f892

The changes since the last stable branch are:
* Version 2.99.0 (released 2011-04-09)

** libgnutls: Added Datagram TLS support.

** libgnutls: Uses a single configure file and a single
gnulib library to save space.

** libgnutls: Several bug fixes.

** libgnutls: gnutls_transport_set_lowat() is no more.

** libgnutls-openssl: modified to use modern gnutls' functions.
This introduces an ABI incompatibility with previous versions.

** libgnutls: Corrected signature generation and verification
in the Certificate Verify message when in TLS 1.2. Reported
by Todd A. Ouska.

** libgnutlsxx: The C++ interface returns exception on
every error and not only on fatal ones. This allows easier
handling of errors.

** libgnutls: Corrected issue in DHE-PSK ciphersuites that ignored
the PSK callback.

** libgnutls: SRP and PSK are no longer set on the default priorities.
They have to be explicitly set.

** libgnutls: During handshake message verification using DSS
use the hash algorithm required by it.

** libgnutls: gnutls_recv() return GNUTLS_E_PREMATURE_TERMINATION
on unexpected EOF, instead of GNUTLS_E_UNEXPECTED_PACKET_LENGTH.

** libgnutls: Added GCM mode (interoperates with tls.secg.org)

** libgnutls-extra: Inner application extension was removed.
It was never standardized nor published as an RFC.

** libgnutls: Added new certificate verification functions, that
can provide more details and are more efficient. Check
gnutls_x509_trust_list_*.

** certtool: Uses the new certificate verification functions for
--verify-chain.

** certtool: Added new certificate verification functionality
using the --verify option. Combined with --load-ca-certificate
it can verify a certificate chain against a list of certificates.
