Freenet 0.7 build 1070 is now available. It will be mandatory on tuesday. Main
changes:
- A new way to transfer opennet noderefs for path folding, with a significant
security benefit against traffic analysis. Currently we support both the new
and old formats, but the next build after this is mandatory will remove the
support for the old insecure ref exchange format.
- Lots of internal code cleanups around opennet.
- Some changes to message coalescing, should slightly improve efficiency of
using connections and security against traffic analysis.
- Remove the choose-which-networks-to-allow-access code from the first time
wizard. Most people don't use this and it produces bad settings which will
cause the node to fail to start up when your IP address changes.
Please upgrade! Please test the new build, and report any bugs you find. Thank
you for using Freenet.
