+<A NAME="gnunet0.11.0">2019-02: GNUnet 0.11.0 released</A>
+</h3>
+
+We are pleased to announce the release of GNUnet 0.11.0. <br>
+
+This is a major release after about five years of development.  In
+terms of usability, users should be aware that there are still a large
+number of known open issues in particular with respect to ease of use,
+but also some critical privacy issues especially for mobile users.
+Also, the nascent network is tiny (~200 peers) and thus unlikely to
+provide good anonymity or extensive amounts of interesting
+information.  As a result, the 0.11.0 release is still only suitable
+for early adopters with some reasonable pain tolerance.

+</p>
+
+<h4>Known Issues</h4>
+<p>
+  <ul>

+        which will need to be addressed for usability, performance
+        and security.</li>
+    <li>There are known moderate implementation limitations in CADET that
+        impact performance.</li>
+    <li>There are known moderate design issues in FS that also impact
+        usability and performance.</li>
+    <li>There are minor implementation limitations in SET that create
+        unnecessary attack surface for availability.</li>
+    <li>The RPS subsystem remains experimental.</li>
+  </ul>
