=46reenet version 0.7a2 is now available for public testing.

=46reenet is a global peer-to-peer network designed to allow users to publi=
sh=20
and consume information without fear of censorship.  To use it, you must=20
download the Freenet software, available for Windows, Mac, Linux and other=
=20
operating systems.  Your computer will then form part of a global,=20
decentralized P2P network, and you will be able to publish and consume=20
information anonymously, either through your web browser, or through a=20
variety of third party applications, such as Frost (see=20
http://jtcfrost.sf.net/).

Since the first alpha there have been vast numbers of changes, in particula=
r=20
significant improvements in user friendliness.  For example, it is no-longe=
r=20
necessary to find other people to connect to, Freenet can find other people=
=20
for you. However, you can still connect to your friends for maximum securit=
y.=20
It is also a good deal faster, and many bugs have been fixed.

There have been many many other changes, and we will release a feature=20
complete beta followed by 0.7.0 itself in the coming months (we hope to hav=
e=20
regular point releases after that). But we thought it would be best to get=
=20
some wider testing at this point. There is more to do before 0.7.0, and one=
=20
or two features which need to be completed before that.

=46reenet 0.7a2 can be downloaded from:

http://freenetproject.org/download.html

This release would not have been possible without the release of numerous=20
volunteers, and Matthew Toseland, Freenet's full time developer. Matthew's=
=20
work is funded through donations via our website (as well as a few larger=20
sponsors from time to time), we ask that anyone who can help us to ensure=20
Matthew's continued employment by visiting our donations page and making a=
=20
contribution at:
