New versions of wpa_supplicant and hostapd were just
released and are now available from http://w1.fi/

This release is the last development release from 0.6.x branch. The
next release, 0.6.8, will be the start of stable 0.6.x releases.
Development will continue in the hostap.git repository and a new
hostap-06.git repository will be used for stable releases. The goal
for the future 0.6.x releases is to mainly integrate bug fixes from
hostap.git. All new features will be developed in the 0.7.x
development branch.

hostapd:
* added support for Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)
  (hostapd can now be configured to act as an integrated WPS Registrar
  and provision credentials for WPS Enrollees using PIN and PBC
  methods; external wireless Registrar can configure the AP, but
  external WLAN Manager Registrars are not supported); WPS support can
  be enabled by adding CONFIG_WPS=y into .config and setting the
  runtime configuration variables in hostapd.conf (see WPS section in
  the example configuration file); new hostapd_cli commands wps_pin and
  wps_pbc are used to configure WPS negotiation; see README-WPS for
  more details
* added IEEE 802.11n HT capability configuration (ht_capab)
* added support for generating Country IE based on nl80211 regulatory
  information (added if ieee80211d=1 in configuration)
* fixed WEP authentication (both Open System and Shared Key) with
  mac80211
* added support for EAP-AKA' (draft-arkko-eap-aka-kdf)
* added support for using driver_test over UDP socket
* changed EAP-GPSK to use the IANA assigned EAP method type 51
* updated management frame protection to use IEEE 802.11w/D7.0
* fixed retransmission of EAP requests if no response is received

wpa_supplicant:
* added support for Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)
  (wpa_supplicant can now be configured to act as a WPS Enrollee to
  enroll credentials for a network using PIN and PBC methods; in
  addition, wpa_supplicant can act as a wireless WPS Registrar to
  configure an AP); WPS support can be enabled by adding CONFIG_WPS=y
  into .config and setting the runtime configuration variables in
  wpa_supplicant.conf (see WPS section in the example configuration
  file); new wpa_cli commands wps_pin, wps_pbc, and wps_reg are used to
  manage WPS negotiation; see README-WPS for more details
* added support for EAP-AKA' (draft-arkko-eap-aka-kdf)
* added support for using driver_test over UDP socket
* fixed PEAPv0 Cryptobinding interoperability issue with Windows Server
  2008 NPS; optional cryptobinding is now enabled (again) by default
* fixed PSK editing in wpa_gui
* changed EAP-GPSK to use the IANA assigned EAP method type 51
* added a Windows installer that includes WinPcap and all the needed
  DLLs; in addition, it set up the registry automatically so that user
  will only need start wpa_gui to get prompted to start the wpasvc
  servide and add a new interface if needed through wpa_gui dialog
* updated management frame protection to use IEEE 802.11w/D7.0
