3 <a name="gnunet-0.11.3-release">2019-04-03: GNUnet 0.11.3 released</a>
4 </h3>
5 <p>
6 We are pleased to announce the release of GNUnet 0.11.3.
7 </p>
8 <p>
9 This is a bugfix release for 0.11.2, mostly fixing a few
10 build issues. In
11 terms of usability, users should be aware that there are still a large
12 number of known open issues in particular with respect to ease of use,
13 but also some critical privacy issues especially for mobile users.
14 Also, the nascent network is tiny (about 200 peers) and thus unlikely to
15 provide good anonymity or extensive amounts of interesting
16 information. As a result, the 0.11.3 release is still only suitable
17 for early adopters with some reasonable pain tolerance.
18 </p>

27 </ul>
28 <p>
29 (gnunet-gtk and gnunet-fuse were not released again, as there were no
30 changes and the 0.11.0 versions are expected to continue to work fine
31 with gnunet-0.11.3.)
32 </p>
33 <p>
34 Note that due to mirror synchronization, not all links might be functional
35 early after the release. For direct access try <a href="http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnunet/">http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnunet/</a>
36 </p>
37 <p>
38 Note that GNUnet is now started using <tt>gnunet-arm -s</tt>. GNUnet should be
39 stopped using <tt>gnunet-arm -e</tt>.
40 </p>
41 <h4>Noteworthy changes in 0.11.3 (since 0.11.2)</h4>
42 <ul>
43 <li>
44 gnunet-zoneimport now handles <tt>-h</tt> correctly
45 </li>
46 <li>
47 <tt>iptables</tt> and other similar binaries are no longer
48 hard-coded but detected at configure time (with hard-coded
49 fallback locations).
50 </li>
51 <li>
52 <tt>make uninstall</tt> now properly uninstalls all files
53 </li>
54 <li>
55 Passing the no longer available <tt>--with-nssdir</tt>
56 configuration option now results in a hard error.
57 </li>
58 <li>
59 <tt>GNUNET_memcmp()</tt> and <tt>GNUNET_is_zero()</tt> macros
60 introduced for improved type safety (but not yet used consistently).
61 </li>
62 </ul>
63 <h4>Known Issues</h4>
64 <ul>
65 <li>
66 There are known major design issues in the TRANSPORT, ATS and CORE subsystems
67 which will need to be addressed in the future to achieve acceptable usability,
68 performance and security.
69 </li>
70 <li>
71 There are known moderate implementation limitations in CADET that
72 negatively impact performance. Also CADET may unexpectedly deliver messages out-of-order.
73 </li>
74 <li>
75 There are known moderate design issues in FS that also impact
76 usability and performance.
77 </li>
78 <li>
79 There are minor implementation limitations in SET that create
80 unnecessary attack surface for availability.
81 </li>
82 <li>
83 The RPS subsystem remains experimental.
84 </li>
85 <li>
86 Some high-level tests in the test-suite fail non-deterministically due to
87 the low-level TRANSPORT issues.
88 </li>
89 </ul>

91 In addition to this list, you may also want to consult our bug tracker
92 at <a href="https://bugs.gnunet.org/">bugs.gnunet.org</a> which lists
93 about 190 more specific issues.
