[ANN] Crossroads: Software-based load balancer for TCP services (Karel Kubat)

Subject: [ANN] Crossroads: Software-based load balancer for TCP services
From: Karel Kubat <kkubat@gmail.com>
Announcing: Crossroads V0.04
Crossroads is a load balance and fail over utility for TCP based
services. It is a daemon program running in user space, and features
extensive configurability, polling of back ends using 'wakeup calls',
detailed status reporting, 'hooks' for special actions when backend
calls fail, and much more. Crossroads is service-independent: it is
usable for HTTP(S), SSH, SMTP, DNS, etc.
The current version of Crossroads, 0.04, is considered 'alpha', though
it works well and is stable. (I'm expecting a few more weeks of evaluation
before going to 'beta'.) For more information, please visit:

Feedback is appreciated!
