Motivation: Sometimes a shared HashedWheelTimer can not easily be stopped in a good place. If the worker thread is daemon this is not a big deal and we should allow to not log a leak. Modifications: Add another constructor which allows to disable resource leak detection if worker thread is used. Result: Not log resource leak when HashedWheelTimer is not stopped and the worker thread is a deamon thread.
DnsNameResolver should not bind locally. Fixes #5457 Motivation: Dns resolution failures happen when using the DnsNameResolver and the JVM is not authorized to bind datagram channels. The current DnsNameResolver binds locally a DatagramChannel which is not necessary (and not always permitted).

How to build
For the detailed information about building and developing Netty, please visit the developer guide. This page only gives very basic information.
You require the following to build Netty:
- Latest stable Oracle JDK 7
- Latest stable Apache Maven
- If you are on Linux, you need additional development packages installed on your system, because you'll build the native transport.
Note that this is build-time requirement. JDK 5 (for 3.x) or 6 (for 4.0+) is enough to run your Netty-based application.
Branches to look
Development of all versions takes place in each branch whose name is identical to <majorVersion>.<minorVersion>
. For example, the development of 3.9 and 4.0 resides in the branch '3.9' and the branch '4.0' respectively.
