Major new features relative to 0.5.0.7:

* Nodes are now permanent by default. Implementation of Address
  Resolution Keys means you no longer need a permanent IP or DNS address
  to run a permanent node. More dynamic routing combined with ARKs means
  "permanent" nodes do not need to run 24x7. Automatic detection of IP
  address simplifies installation further and keeps the ARK up to date.
* New HTML 4.01/CSS2 anonymity filter. Much safer than the old one,
  removes content that could cause your web browser to violate your
  anonymity by rewriting web pages to only contain code that it
  understands.
* Splitfile improvements. Much improved splitfile download/upload user
  interface, optional automatic reinsertion of missing blocks, bugfixes.
* The Distribution Node - allows you to create a freenet distribution=20
  page using locally generated seednodes, for example to include in your
  email signature.
* Lots of bug fixes!
