OpenDKIM v2.2.0 Beta period starting

From: Murray S. Kucherawy <msk_at_blackops.org>

We're starting a Beta release period for one month for OpenDKIM v2.2.0.
The first Beta release is now available for download from SourceForge now
in the "Pre-Releases" directory.

Please limit discussion and reporting of issues about the Betas to the
opendkim-dev list, and don't use the SourceForge trackers as this is
unreleased code. This will be the only announcement made on
opendkim-users.

There are many features added and bugs fixed in this release. See the
RELEASE_NOTES for details. All configurations should be fully
forward-compatible so it should be just a drop-in binary replacement.

Also, the statistics reporting module has been overhauled and in some ways
simplified. The support scripts for the statistics project will probably
evolve somewhat during the Beta period. We're still looking for more
participants, so please email me off-list if you're interested. For those
of you already reporting data, an upgrade will mean you need to change the
way you're reporting. I'll send a message to opendkim-dev about that
shortly. However, with the release of 2.2.0 in about a month, the current
stats reporting system will be fully replaced and the old data discarded.

The current RELEASE_NOTES entry for 2.2.0 is:
