Freenet 0.7 build 994 is now available. Please upgrade. The auto-update
should be working; please tell me if it is not working for you (a few
success reports would be nice too, in private email).
There are quite a few changes:
- The store is no longer shrunk on every startup!
- Lowering the priority of a queued request now works.
- Many other bugfixes.
- Significant optimisation in HTMLEncoder, speeds up fetching
cached/generated pages somewhat. (Thanks Unique Person on Frost)
- If you request a key which has additional path components beyond what
is needed, for example if you request CHK at blah,blah,blah as
CHK at blah,blah,blah/blah.blah, the node will reject the request and
send you a redirect to the original. This is enabled in fproxy (but
occurs transparently, updating the URL in the location bar and any
bookmarks), but disabled by default in FCP so that Frost, Thaw etc can
be fixed to follow the redirect. It can be enabled by setting
node.ignoreTooManyPathComponents=false in the config.
The rationale behind this is 1) most URIs do not behave like this;
there is no reason to increase the learning curve in Freenet by
producing unexpected behaviour, 2) it makes freenet URIs easily comparable,
which is good for all automatic systems that use freenet URIs.
