3 | <h1>GNUnet 0.14.0 released</h1> | ||
4 | <p> | ||
5 | We are pleased to announce the release of GNUnet 0.14.0. | ||
6 | <br> | ||
7 | This is a new major release. It breaks protocol compatibility with the 0.13.x versions. | ||
8 | Please be aware that Git master is thus henceforth <b>INCOMPATIBLE</b> with | ||
9 | the 0.13.x GNUnet network, and interactions between old and new peers | ||
10 | will result in issues. 0.13.x peers will be able to communicate with Git | ||
11 | master or 0.13.x peers, but some services will not be compatible.<br/> | ||
12 | In terms of usability, users should be aware that there are still | ||
13 | <b>a large number of known open issues</b> in particular with respect to ease | ||
14 | of use, but also some critical privacy issues especially for mobile users. | ||
15 | Also, the nascent network is tiny and thus unlikely to | ||
16 | provide good anonymity or extensive amounts of interesting information. | ||
17 | As a result, the 0.14.0 release is still <b>only suitable for early adopters | ||
18 | with some reasonable pain tolerance</b>. | ||
19 | </p> | ||

44 | <li>Symmetric encryption: Records are now encrypted using AES-CTR instead of AES-CBC. <a href="https://bugs.gnunet.org/view.php?id=6487">#6487</a></li> | ||
45 | </ul> | ||
46 | </li> | ||
47 | <li> | ||

60 | <h4>Known Issues</h4> | ||
61 | <ul> | ||
62 | <li>There are known major design issues in the TRANSPORT, ATS and CORE subsystems which will need to be addressed in the future to achieve acceptable usability, performance and security.</li> | ||
63 | <li>There are known moderate implementation limitations in CADET that negatively impact performance.</li> | ||
64 | <li>There are known moderate design issues in FS that also impact usability and performance.</li> | ||
65 | <li>There are minor implementation limitations in SET that create unnecessary attack surface for availability.</li> | ||
66 | <li>The RPS subsystem remains experimental.</li> | ||
67 | <li>Some high-level tests in the test-suite fail non-deterministically due to the low-level TRANSPORT issues.</li> | ||
68 | </ul> | ||
