[ANNOUNCE] WOLK v4.9s FINAL - Server Edition

Hi all,

so here we go, FINAL v4.9. This is the 9th maintenance update for WOLK4.0.


Now, WOLK5 work starts with 2.4.22. Anway, this tree (wolk4) will get
security fixes only until WOLK5.0 final is out. After that, WOLK4 is out of
maintenance. The NEWIDE Addon has been updated too.

My company needed some features like Dazuko and WEB-DAV, so I've added it. 
There were also a request for Layer7 Packet Classifier, though for 5.0s but 
hey, it's also possible for 4.9s ;)

I've removed 4.0-fullkernel gz|bz2 files and uploaded 4.9-fullkernel files.
If you want to use earlier versions, you have to 'down-patch' 4.9s.

        Have fun!
