We are pleased to announce the release of GNUnet 0.12.2.

This is a bugfix release.
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=
=2E
Also, the nascent network is tiny and thus unlikely to
provide good anonymity or extensive amounts of interesting information.
As a result, the 0.12.2 release is still only suitable for early adopters=

with some reasonable pain tolerance.

Noteworthy changes in 0.12.2 (since 0.12.1):

- GNS: Resolver clients are now able to specify a recursion depth limit.
- TRANSPORT/TNG: The transport rewrite (aka TNG) is underway and
    various transport components have been worked on, including TCP, UDP
and UDS
    communicators.
- RECLAIM: Added preliminary support for third party attested credentials=
=2E
- UTIL: The cryptographic changes introduced in 0.12.0 broke ECDSA
      ECDH and consequently other components. The offending ECDSA key
normalization
      was dropped.

Known Issues

- 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.
- There are known moderate implementation limitations in CADET that
negatively impact performance.
- There are known moderate design issues in FS that also impact
usability and performance.
- There are minor implementation limitations in SET that create
unnecessary attack surface for availability.
- The RPS subsystem remains experimental.
- Some high-level tests in the test-suite fail non-deterministically due
to the low-level TRANSPORT issues.

In addition to this list, you may also want to consult our bug tracker
at bugs.gnunet.org which lists about 190 more specific issues.
