[ZendTo] ANNOUNCE: Version 6 released

[Jules]

Hi folks!

Major new release today. Version 6.0 has landed.

The major features since version 5.23 are:

   * Login via OAuth, Yubikeys etc with SAML-based authentication.
   * Uploaded files are now sent in small chunks ('maxChunkSize'), and 
are automatically retried on failure, to attempt to avoid problems with 
network security appliances and the Great Firewall of China.
   * Recipients can be made to read and acknowledge some legal text (or 
instructions) before being able to download files.
   * Users can set the lifetime of a drop-off (within limits) allowing 
much shorter-lived drop-offs for sensitive data.
   * Now ships in 13 languages.
   * Improved automation ability with new "autolist" command that dumps 
all drop-off metadata as JSON.
   * Admin logins can be restricted to local IP addresses.
   * internaldomains.conf can now list individual email addresses as 
well as entire domains, so you can give usage permission to someone with 
a @gmail.com address, for example.

There have been lots of other improvements and fixes since 5.23, for 
more information on those see the Change Log for all the 5.24 beta releases:
     zend.to/changelog

I've updated all the repositories, so you should be able to just yum/apt 
upgrade.
After updating, run
/opt/zendto/bin/upgrade
and then, especially if you are using yum or are on a RPM-based system, 
check the /opt/zendto/templates directory for any *.rpmnew files, and 
rename them over the top of your old ones. This will be needed if you 
have edited any of the template files.

If you need to change the text in any of the templates, **please** avoid 
editing the templates (*.tpl) directly as it makes upgrades awkward for you.
There's a better way: read
     zend.to/translators
and it will explain how to do it so that future upgrades are smooth, and 
without editing the *.tpl files themselves.

Please report bugs and so on straight away.

Cheers,

Jules
