Sean,

   It's great to see a new release of MASON. Do you have an on-line

pointer to a summary of the new features in version 11? (I couldn't

find anything perusing the /projects/mason location).



   BTW, I may have forgotten to point you to our paper last fall

that references your recent MASON work:



   Detecting Coordinated Attacks in Tactical Wireless Networks

   using Cooperative Signature-based Detectors. 2005. Mike Little,

   Calvin Ko. IEEE MILCOM 2005.
