gsasl-1.11.2 released [beta]

[Simon Josefsson]

Hi!  Please test this as if it were the final 2.0.0 release.

Here are the compressed sources and a GPG detached signature[*]:
  https://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/gsasl/gsasl-1.11.2.tar.gz
  https://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/gsasl/gsasl-1.11.2.tar.gz.sig

Use a mirror for higher download bandwidth:

Here are the SHA1 and SHA256 checksums:

d0e226cf046f357007fa6e8b5f6290e08c94ddf4  gsasl-1.11.2.tar.gz
lgE2AuLYE5DMbO96RNXPjwdXHrQVuiupmrvfbsbRz44  gsasl-1.11.2.tar.gz

The SHA256 checksum is base64 encoded, instead of the
hexadecimal encoding that most checksum tools default to.

[*] Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the
.sig suffix) is intact.  First, be sure to download both the .sig file
and the corresponding tarball.  Then, run a command like this:

  gpg --verify gsasl-1.11.2.tar.gz.sig

If that command fails because you don't have the required public key,
then run this command to import it:

  gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 51722B08FE4745A2

and rerun the 'gpg --verify' command.

NEWS

* Noteworthy changes in release 1.11.2 (2021-10-25) [beta]

** libgsasl: New API gsasl_is_mechanism_name_valid().
This can be used to check if a mechanism name string is valid, i.e.,
validate string length and characters used.  This function is the
recommended upgrade path for code using
GSASL_VALID_MECHANISM_CHARACTERS, in the majority of use-cases.

** libgsasl: The following variables have been removed:
GSASL_VALID_MECHANISM_CHARACTERS: The reason for removing this is that
exporting static global variables from shared libraries has
portability concerns, and this is not a widely used variable anyway.

*** Various cleanups, build/bug fixes and portability improvements.
