What's Changed
This is the first release of Aerleon, a fork of Capirca. It’s based on a commit near Capirca v2.0.6 and is compatible with Capirca.
This release coincides with the release of a new documentation website, https://aerleon.readthedocs.io/en/latest/.
Much of the documentation was edited for completeness and accuracy.
Aerleon is built and released using a SLSA Level 3 build process. Releases can be verified using the steps described in https://aerleon.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install/#verifying-installation.
