Doc + TODO update

parent e2fa6495
To be done :
Male sure the re6stnet ip address is added on only one interface
Update the USAGE > OPTION > Tunnel & Peers options section of the re6stnet
man page ( about how tunnel options are treated ).
Do a 'real' test, on one ( or more ) real machine(s) preferably :
- package re6stnet
- install re6stnet
- follow the HOW TO section of the man page to setup a network
- see if it works....
Put more information in the token mail ( registry ), such as :
- the ip address of the network being built
- the creator of the network ( add option in registry ? )
Make sure the re6stnet ip address is added on only one interface
( tweak the ovpn-server script ), else duplicate addresses appears in routing
tables.
