6 | <h1>GNUnet {{newver}} released</h1> | ||
7 | <p> | ||
8 | We are pleased to announce the release of GNUnet {{newver}}. | ||
9 | <br/> | ||
10 | GNUnet is an alternative network stack for building secure, decentralized and | ||
11 | privacy-preserving distributed applications. | ||
12 | Our goal is to replace the old insecure Internet protocol stack. | ||
13 | Starting from an application for secure publication of files, it has grown to | ||
14 | include all kinds of basic protocol components and applications towards the | ||
15 | creation of a GNU internet. | ||
16 | </p> | ||
17 | <p> | ||
18 | This is a new major release. | ||
19 | It breaks protocol compatibility with the 0.19.x versions. | ||
20 | Please be aware that Git master is thus henceforth (and has been for a | ||
21 | while) <b>INCOMPATIBLE</b> with | ||
22 | the 0.19.x GNUnet network, and interactions between old and new peers | ||
23 | will result in issues. 0.19.x peers will be able to communicate with Git | ||
24 | master or 0.20.x peers, but some services will not be compatible.<br/> | ||
25 | In terms of usability, users should be aware that there are still | ||
26 | <b>a number of known open issues</b> in particular with respect to ease | ||
27 | of use, but also some critical privacy issues especially for mobile users. | ||
28 | Also, the nascent network is tiny and thus unlikely to | ||
29 | provide good anonymity or extensive amounts of interesting information. | ||
30 | As a result, the {{newver}} release is still <b>only suitable for early adopters | ||
31 | with some reasonable pain tolerance</b>. | ||
32 | </p> | ||

48 | <p> | ||
49 | A detailed list of changes can be found in the <a href="https://git.gnunet.org/gnunet.git/log/?h=v{{newver}}">git log</a>, the <a href="https://git.gnunet.org/gnunet.git/tree/NEWS?h=v{{newver}}">NEWS</a> and | ||
50 | the <a href="https://bugs.gnunet.org/changelog_page.php?version_id=417">bug tracker</a>. | ||
51 | </p> | ||
52 | <h4>Known Issues</h4> | ||
53 | <ul> | ||
54 | <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> | ||
55 | <li>There are known moderate implementation limitations in CADET that negatively impact performance.</li> | ||
56 | <li>There are known moderate design issues in FS that also impact usability and performance.</li> | ||
57 | <li>There are minor implementation limitations in SET that create unnecessary attack surface for availability.</li> | ||
58 | <li>The RPS subsystem remains experimental.</li> | ||
59 | <li>Some high-level tests in the test-suite fail non-deterministically due to the low-level TRANSPORT issues.</li> | ||
60 | </ul> | ||
61 | <p> | ||
