    Announcing: Crossroads V0.04

    Crossroads is a load balance and fail over utility for TCP based
    services. It is a daemon program running in user space, and features
    extensive configurability, polling of back ends using 'wakeup calls',
    detailed status reporting, 'hooks' for special actions when backend
    calls fail, and much more. Crossroads is service-independent: it is
    usable for HTTP(S), SSH, SMTP, DNS, etc.

    The current version of Crossroads, 0.04, is considered 'alpha', though
    it works well and is stable. (I'm expecting a few more weeks of evaluation
    before going to 'beta'.) For more information, please visit:
