Today is the surprise release of an October 2015 edition of that Marina IP
thing that I've been working on.

The October 2015 edition of Marina adds Multicasting level 1 conformance and
several improvements to the ARP and ICMP implementations. This latest
edition also includes many other changes and improvements which are noted at
the end of this post.

The development environment is now completely changed over to ProDOS Merlin
Pro.

Visit the Marina web site to download the new binary, source code, and
manual.

Also the Marina Technical Library was updated with new RFCs, an additional
Marina document on ICMP, and two other Marina documents were revised.
