[ixpmanager] New Release - IXP Manager - v3.6.6

[Barry O'Donovan]

[As announced at the last EURO-IX, it is our intention to announce new 
releases on the mailing list]


V3.6.6 has just been stamped. This is primarily a bug fix / small 
feature release and the full change log can be found at:

http://git.io/PtP7YA

Fixes / implements / addresses ~13 GitHub issues.


This also marks the first integration with Travis CI for continuous 
integration / testing. Right now, this is limited to ensuring the Bird 
route server configuration is generated as expected. See:

https://github.com/inex/IXP-Manager/wiki/CI---Configuration-Generation


We at INEX will shortly be implementing / migrating our Quagga route 
server configuration to IXP Manager including CI tests and 
documentation. We will then update the documentation to fully reflect 
the integrated route server configuration generation which includes:

  - Quagga and Bird templates;
  - easy addition of additional templates;
  - creation of full testing environment including client routers;
  - strict prefix filtering;
  - origin ASN filtering;
  - customer facing prefix analysis tool;
  - 'bullet proof' configuration update scripts.


The planned time frame of this is by end of February [but, should other 
priorities emerge, definitely before the next EURO-IX meeting in Leeds].
