hi!
as you probably noticed, hoststated got renamed to relayd to reflect
the enhanced scope of the daemon. i also used the chance to do
significat changes to the configuration language. we may do a few
more changes with the goal to get something that is extensible, nice,
and consistent. this is the final name change for a tool that became
very powerful and grew out of its roots, hopefully.
if you run the OpenBSD upgrade process, it will keep the old
hoststated/hoststatectl binaries, which allows you to keep the old
configuration while you're migrating from hoststated.conf to the new
relayd.conf format. but i strongly advise to get rid of grumpy old
hoststated!
to get an impression about the language changes, have a look at
relayd.conf(5), see src/etc/relayd.conf, and view the differences in the
OpenBSD CVS tree with:
cvs diff -Nup -r1.10 -r1.11 src/etc/relayd.conf
(it will take some time to sync it to the anoncvs servers).

Modified files:
etc : relayd.conf
usr.sbin/relayd: parse.y relay.c relayd.8 relayd.c relayd.conf.5
relayd.h
usr.sbin/relayctl: relayctl.8
Log message:
some changes to the relayd.conf configuration language and grammar.
the tables will look more like pf tables, it is easier to re-use
tables with different options, "services" will become "redirections"
(they refer to rdr pf rules), sync configuration directives of
redirect (l3, ex-service) relay (l7) sections (for example "virtual
host" will become "listen on"), all target definitions will start with
"forward to", etc. pp. (see relay.conf(5) and etc/relayd.conf)

Log message:
hoststated/hoststatectl get repository copied (and de-tagged) into
relayd/relayctl. This is a more suitable place for a daemon that has
grown out of it's initial roots of "monitoring and redirecting services
at various layers", into one that is "a full featured proxy, which
happens to know what is up/down"
