 Improved browsing support.

+Remaining known issues with cross-subnet browsing.
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+When nmbd is acting as a WINS server it doesn't handle
+de-registering of members of a WORKGROUP<1e> name correctly.
+The first machine to de-register will remove the name. This
+should be fixed in a later release when group names are 
+handled correctly in the WINS code.
+
+Propagation of servers between local master browsers and
+the domain master browser doesn't take into account the
+fact that only names seen by the local master browser on
+the local subnet should be propagated. This causes machines
+that have stopped serving to be propagated between browse
+masters. This issue will be fixed in the smbd code in a
+later release.
+
 Remember - this is new code so there may be
 bugs or problems.
