We are pleased to announce the release of GNUnet 0.15.0.
This is a new major release. It breaks protocol compatibility with the =
0.14.x versions. Please be aware that Git master is thus henceforth =
INCOMPATIBLE with the 0.14.x GNUnet network, and interactions between =
old and new peers will result in issues. 0.14.x peers will be able to =
communicate with Git master or 0.14.x peers, but some services - in =
particular GNS - will not be compatible.
The MESSENGER service goes out of experimental to be used by libraries =
and applications as dependency. It handles decentralized messaging in =
flexible groups by using the CADET service and messages can be signed =
with your ego from the IDENTITY service. The service is still in an =
early stage, so its protocol (currently version 0.1) will likely adapt =
or change in future releases to some degree.
In terms of usability, users should be aware that there are still a =
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 and thus unlikely to provide good anonymity =
or extensive amounts of interesting information. As a result, the 0.15.0 =
release is still only suitable for early adopters with some reasonable =
pain tolerance.
