2 Nearly complete rewrite and new overall architecture. Many
3 features are still missing, but basic system seems to be
4 working again. Maybe time to again track major changes
5 in the ChangeLog. Releasing 0.9.0pre0.
8 Sun Feb 1 19:51:40 MST 2009
9 Fixed Mantis #1429 (struct padding could cause sizeof
10 to be different on AMD64, using gcc-ism "packed" to
13 Sun Feb 1 00:37:16 MST 2009

27 Sun Jul 20 15:27:11 MDT 2008
30 Thu Jul 10 00:59:31 MDT 2008
31 Fixed bug where datastore resizing would not
32 result in bloomfilter update during gnunet-update.
34 Sat Jun 28 23:43:00 MDT 2008
35 Fixed bug preventing namespace advertisements from
38 Sat Jun 14 00:54:39 MDT 2008
41 Fri Jun 13 23:51:00 MDT 2008
42 GNUnet now compiles on OpenBSD.
44 Wed Jun 11 22:17:09 MDT 2008
45 Made state of gnunet-auto-share persistent.
46 Added support for multiple directories. Improved
47 FSUI/ECRS APIs to reduce the number of threads needed
48 for probing. Increased number of concurrent probes
51 Sat Jun 7 17:54:49 MDT 2008
52 Simplified namespaces a lot. Shorter timeouts for
53 trying to connect to gnunetd to prevent interactive
54 apps from blocking too long when gnunetd is not
57 Sun Jun 1 21:11:54 MDT 2008
60 Sun Jun 1 13:41:27 MDT 2008
61 Split of libgnunetpseudonym from libgnunetnamespace
62 (with major API extension and changes).
64 Tue May 6 04:10:02 MDT 2008
65 Added simple sanity check for [MODULES] values.
66 Added "-s" and "-q" options to gnunet-peer-info.
68 Thu Apr 24 00:05:17 MDT 2008
69 Simplified FSUI stop/abort/pause/resume API calls
70 (no need to pass FSUI context anymore).
72 Mon Apr 21 21:05:20 MDT 2008
73 Adding buffered IO for FSUI's serialize and
76 Sun Apr 20 20:01:20 MDT 2008
77 Fixed bug in HTTP transport causing lonely messages
78 (responses to GET) not to be delivered.
80 Mon Mar 24 21:15:36 MDT 2008
81 Fixed various problems with downloading locally
82 indexed large files (downloading large files from
83 other peers should not have been a problem).
85 Sun Mar 2 15:33:41 MST 2008
86 Added option to allow user to disable IPv6 support.
89 Sat Mar 1 21:14:02 MST 2008
90 Fixed some dstore performance issues.
91 Made transports alternate between trying IPv4 and IPv6
92 if both are available (since one of them maybe
95 Mon Feb 25 23:25:48 MST 2008
96 Cleanup of the DNS code: removed GNUNET_IPvXAddress
97 and GNUNET_PRIP; centralized all DNS lookup code in
98 util/network/dns.c; improved IPv6 support for
101 Mon Feb 25 00:01:27 MST 2008
102 Added asynchronous search and download methods for
103 ECRS library. FSUI now can do with only one thread
104 per search or download (until now, we had two
105 threads per search / download).
107 Tue Feb 19 20:35:28 MST 2008
108 Updated database schemata to support O(1) operations
109 even if there are N files under the same keywords.
110 This breaks database backwards compatibility (and
111 no migration code is provided).
113 Mon Feb 18 19:47:37 MST 2008
114 Added new options -u and -s to gnunet-insert.
116 Sat Feb 16 21:37:33 MST 2008
117 Implemented gnunet-auto-share for automatic
118 sharing of directories.
120 Thu Feb 14 01:02:32 MST 2008
121 Made HTTP transport work over IPv6 as well.
123 Wed Feb 13 22:59:07 MST 2008
124 Modified mySQL and SQLite datastores to return diverse
125 result sets during (partial) hash-based get iterations
126 (should result in more diverse keyword result sets).
128 Tue Feb 12 23:54:34 MST 2008
129 First shot at integrated hostlist HTTP server based
132 Sat Feb 9 22:06:23 MST 2008
133 Minor changes to the ECRS/FSUI APIs for searches
134 (no more timeouts and/or max-results). Clients who
135 need these features could easily implement them
136 directly (and they are not really useful to begin
138 Also, the IPv4 and IPv6 protocols are being integrated
139 so that we only listen to one port (running both IPv4
140 and IPv6 over the same port). This break transport
141 compatibility, but given that we're breaking protocol
142 compatibility for file-sharing already, this may
143 actually be a bit of a good thing (since it will now
144 be possible to tell if peers running the new GAP code
145 are connected to other peers running the new GAP code).
147 Sun Feb 3 13:17:09 MST 2008
148 Dramatic changes to the GAP implementation (breaking
149 protocol compatibility). Essentially, we can save
150 a few bytes in each reply. More importantly, the new
151 code allows the searching client to specify a set of
152 replies that are not desired (hopefully helping to
153 dramatically increase the diversity of search replies
154 obtained over time). Note that the actual encoding
155 and databases are not affected (just P2P protocol).
156 The update is not complete yet, but should compile.
158 Tue Jan 8 20:07:20 MST 2008
159 Added option for testing ("make check") to use weak(er)
160 PRNG for key generation (thanks to Werner Koch for
161 pointing out how to do it).
163 Thu Dec 22 20:10:37 MST 2007
164 Releasing GNUnet 0.7.3.
166 Sun Dec 9 14:34:32 MST 2007
167 Implemented MySQL version of the dstore-module. This
168 means that sqLite is now again truly optional.
170 Sat Dec 8 15:15:53 MST 2007
171 Integrated F2F topology into main topology module
172 (options are used to choose between F2F-only (old F2F),
173 minimum number of friend connections (NEW) or entirely
174 arbitrary connection set (default)).
176 Thu Dec 6 20:51:17 MST 2007
177 The SMTP transport is working again.
179 Thu Nov 22 20:49:16 MST 2007
180 United all libgnunetutil_*.so libraries into one big
181 libgnunetutil.so library (eliminates issues for binary
182 packagers and reduces file size by about 20%). Also
183 made sure that all exported symbols start with "GNUNET_".
185 Sat Sep 29 16:48:24 MDT 2007
186 Improved MySQL sqstore module performance.
187 Releasing GNUnet 0.7.2c.
189 Sat Sep 8 18:01:36 MDT 2007
190 HTTP transport seems finally ready.
192 Sat Aug 25 23:58:21 MDT 2007

196 Releasing GNUnet 0.7.2b.
198 Sun Jul 29 01:53:32 MDT 2007
201 Sat Jul 21 23:42:11 MDT 2007
202 Radical changes to MySQL implementation (trying to
203 address certain scalability issues).
205 Sat Jul 7 00:22:47 MDT 2007
206 Releasing GNUnet 0.7.2a.
208 Fri Jul 6 22:54:52 MDT 2007
209 Fixed bugs in F2F topology code. Eliminated a few
210 confusing LOG messages.
212 Sun Jul 1 20:35:00 MDT 2007
213 Fixed issue with too many TCP connections being
214 created. Reduced CPU overheads by increasing
215 requirements for grouping of messages. Improved
216 various error messages.
218 Sat Jun 30 01:55:34 MDT 2007
219 Improved bloomfilter recomputation after quota change.
220 Fixed bloomfilter size computation. You must run
221 gnunet-update (will take a while).
223 Fri Jun 29 00:56:03 MDT 2007
224 Avoid re-connecting shortly after connection was shutdown.
226 Thu Jun 28 01:10:01 MDT 2007
227 Fixed high-latency problems for certain SQLite operations.
228 Also improved SQLite performance (but not scalability) a
229 bit. Resolved MySQL disconnect crash (gnunetd would crash
230 if mysqld was stopped).
232 Sat Jun 23 16:56:03 MDT 2007
233 Improved CPU consumption from content migration code
234 by querying the DB less often, using the same content
235 for more peers (at the expense of 1 MB extra memory
236 utilization). Fixed a deadlock.
238 Wed Jun 20 17:10:38 MDT 2007
239 Fixed bug in MySQL module.
241 Sun Jun 17 00:09:13 MDT 2007
242 Releasing GNUnet 0.7.2.
244 Sat Jun 16 04:43:20 MDT 2007
245 http transport is amost back, now needing the
246 new libmicrohttpd. However, the code is still
247 highly experimental and not ready for production
250 Fri Jun 8 23:44:01 MDT 2007
251 Fixed bugs preventing namespace search from
252 working. Also extended testcase to cover
255 Tue May 29 23:15:27 MDT 2007
256 Fixed a major bug which resulted in peers without
257 traffic between them disconnecting (even if that
258 session was their only connection).
259 Fixed another major bug where nodes would not
260 properly forward HELLOs from other peers (given
261 certain common/default configuration options).
263 Sun May 27 22:39:48 MDT 2007
264 Added new API gnunet_testing_lib.h to make it
265 easier to write testcases that need to start
266 gnunetd. API is now used everywhere and the
267 ugly peer.conf files and directories are gone.
268 Fixed a bug with inserting empty directories.
269 Extended ECRS API to allow partial file download.
271 Sat May 26 18:24:15 MDT 2007
272 Fixed bugs with testcases (changes in names and
273 structure of options were not reflected in .conf
274 files for various testcases).
275 Fixed issues with command-line option handling (failed to
276 override configuration file options).
277 Fixed bogus nesting in GAP routing algorithm (caused
278 random request drops).
280 Fri May 25 12:23:38 MDT 2007
281 Finished extended URITRACK API.
282 Renamed various (minor) libraries and function calls to
283 get somewhat more consistent naming conventions.
285 Sun Apr 15 22:15:37 MDT 2007
286 Implemented heuristic for better packing of gnunet-directories.
288 Sun Mar 25 13:47:08 MDT 2007
289 Releasing GNUnet 0.7.1c.
291 Wed Feb 28 15:29:05 MST 2007

317 Improving support for multiple choice configuration items
320 Sat Jan 27 16:02:02 MST 2007
321 Changing $-expansion for interpretation of configuration file
322 (again). Also, now the base-path for gnunetd defaults to
323 "/var/lib/gnunet" instead of "/var/lib/GNUnet".
325 Tue Jan 23 19:48:37 MST 2007
326 Fixed problem with split-extractor keywords not being used
329 Tue Jan 16 21:43:26 MST 2007
330 Expanded transport APIs to avoid building messages for
331 transmission just to have them rejected by blocking TCPs
332 with full transmission queues (happened quite a bit).
334 Mon Jan 8 22:21:15 MST 2007
335 Making computation of send buffer permuations more
336 efficient (in terms of calling weak_randomi) by only
337 computing permuations over the actually selected messages.
339 Mon Jan 8 21:34:02 MST 2007
340 Forcing -O3 for crypto library (performance critical).
341 Enforcing message queue limit for daemon (somehow got lost
342 on the way to 0.7.1, was responsible for high CPU load).
343 Fixing cron job deletion in core (clean shutdown).
345 Sun Dec 31 23:56:31 MST 2006
346 ncurses may need "-lm" in order to link.
347 Releasing GNUnet 0.7.1a.
349 Sat Dec 30 00:21:49 MST 2006
350 DHT routing now seems to work (not integrated with file-sharing,
351 only for gnunet-dht-query).
353 Fri Dec 29 09:38:53 MST 2006
354 Added UPnP support to GNUnet (IPv4 only, #843).
356 Thu Dec 28 21:22:10 MST 2006

421 Added conversion of ECRS error messages to FSUI
422 error event messages.
424 Sun Nov 19 00:20:14 MST 2006

426 text error messages to clients (not just error codes).
428 Wed Nov 15 23:17:36 MST 2006
429 Fixed expiration time setting. Improved bias of
430 migration towards valuable content.
431 Releasing GNUnet 0.7.1pre0.

436 Wed Nov 1 13:09:53 MST 2006
437 Fixed some problems with index creation in sqlite
438 datastore (discovered with new sqlite benchmarking
439 code). Performance should improve significantly
440 (observed was a factor of 4-10 depending on
441 database size and operation).
443 Thu Oct 19 23:44:24 MDT 2006
444 Completed huge update to FSUI API (not fully debugged).
445 Major changes include:
446 * clients can associate pointer with each action
447 * abort methods can cancel action (but do not stop everything)
448 * upload and unindex operations can now be suspended and resumed
449 * cleaned up naming conventions
451 Thu Sep 14 23:44:17 MDT 2006
452 Breaking UDP transport protocol compatibility -- some
453 fields have to be switched around to make it work with
454 the new select code. Expect to see some warnings when
455 interacting with 0.7.0 peers.
457 Tue Sep 5 21:28:25 PDT 2006
458 Switched ncurses interface of gnunet-setup to use

462 Swiched http bootstrap mechanism to using libcurl
465 Sat May 20 08:37:02 PDT 2006
466 Releasing GNUnet 0.7.0e.

483 (priority was left at zero, making those blocks be
484 possibly discarded rather quickly once the datastore filled
487 Tue May 2 00:01:25 PDT 2006
488 Fixed bug in gap where the tracking of query origins for
489 optimizing routing paths lacked a simple assignment of the
490 query origin (found by code inspection). As a result,
491 routing performance should improve further. Also fixed
492 small memory leak in gap and reduced memory consumption by
495 Sat Apr 22 13:50:39 PDT 2006
496 Fixed bug in util/cron.c where stopCron() would wait for an
497 unnecessary sleep to complete.
499 Sat Mar 18 12:54:11 PST 2006
500 Releasing GNUnet 0.7.0c.
502 Thu Mar 16 22:14:01 PST 2006
503 Fixing various routing problems (resulting in better utilization
504 of bandwidth by routing more content and less queries).
506 Wed Mar 15 00:00:14 PST 2006
507 Fixing various content migration bugs (one that disabled it,
508 one that made it unlikely that migration was even tried, and
509 then various crashes in formerly dead code).
511 Mon Jan 23 19:04:17 PST 2006
512 Added Swedish translation.
514 Sun Jan 1 21:35:59 PST 2006
515 Reduced amount of hashing done to be O(n) and not O(n^2) for
516 n local search results (for example, for 100 results, this can
517 make the difference between hashing 200 MB and hashing 20 MB).
519 Sat Dec 31 17:02:37 PST 2005
520 Added support for using -k multiple times in gnunet-pseudonym.
522 Wen Dec 28 00:22:54 CET 2005

550 Sun Aug 21 23:08:57 PDT 2005
551 Fixed bugs causing unnecessary long delays for downloads from
552 loopback. Also now bypassing routing table for loopback download
553 (faster, avoids pollution of the routing table when not needed).
555 Sun Aug 21 18:42:14 PDT 2005
556 Fixed memory leak in gnunet-insert -R. Improved memory utilization
557 by SQlite dramatically (see discussion on gnunet-developers).
559 Sat Aug 20 21:04:28 PDT 2005
560 Fixed (rare) segmentation fault in insertion code.
562 Sat Aug 20 19:31:10 PDT 2005

565 Sat Aug 20 13:51:01 PDT 2005
568 Sat Aug 20 12:51:27 PDT 2005
569 Changed sqlite data format to avoid encoding-decoding
570 (breaks compatibility with previous datastores, in particular
571 since conversion code is NOT provided).
572 The page size was also increased, rendering the database files
575 Thu Aug 18 21:18:28 PDT 2005
576 Made quotations match GNU standards.
578 Wed Aug 17 20:05:19 PDT 2005

591 AMDs. Fixed recently introduced memory leak.
592 Fixed various compiler warnings.
594 Sat Jul 16 23:55:31 CEST 2005
595 Fixed various minor problems with platforms
596 without gettext/NLS support and for 64-bit size_ts.
597 Also fixed a couple of other compiler warnings.
598 Cleaned up connection.c code.
600 Mon Jul 11 14:41:18 CEST 2005
601 Fixed tiny memory leak in http_bootstrap.
603 Mon Jul 11 02:22:24 CEST 2005
604 Fixed long-standing problems in statuscalls wrt
605 network load estimates, leading to too-high bandwidth
606 consumption on average. Fixed minor memory leaks.
607 Fixed far too often session-key exchange (was done
608 also for sessions that were already up).
610 Thu Jul 7 15:22:21 CEST 2005
611 Fixed bug in identity, missing ntohs for protocol ID.
612 Fixed bug in topology, wrong calculation of saturation.
614 Wed Jul 6 22:34:30 CEST 2005
615 Fixed bugs in core with respect to possible infinite
616 recursion caused by fragmentation callbacks. Also
617 differenciated between fatal transport sends and
618 transient transport sends. Cleanup of some APIs.
620 Sat Jul 2 17:21:07 CEST 2005
621 Fixed bugs in gnunet-pseudonym (listing of namespaces),
622 FSUI (double-free for namespace creation), cleaned up
623 APIs and implemented clearing of completed downloads
624 (FSUI). Releasing 0.7.0pre4.
626 Fri Jul 1 15:08:42 CEST 2005
627 Added statistics for transports and other connection-
628 related functions. Prevented core from dropping
629 messages just because transport is (temporarily)
630 blocked. Made transport selection in identity random
631 again where necessary.
633 Thu Jun 30 20:05:15 CEST 2005
634 Added cache for KBlocks (can speed up insertion speed
635 for recursive inserts quite a bit).
637 Thu Jun 30 13:52:17 CEST 2005
638 Enabled IPv6 by default. Fixed various minor bugs.
640 Tue Jun 28 13:41:58 UTC 2005
641 Fixed various open FIXMEs, including error handling,
642 bad performance and some memory leaks (gnunet-tools
643 only, not in gnunetd).
645 Mon Jun 27 17:21:09 CEST 2005
646 Fixed double-free segfault.
647 Fixed problem with session timeout not happening.
648 Fixed issue with too lazy slot reclaim for reconnect.
649 Made reconnect scanning more incremental (1/10th of
650 the work every 500ms instead of full work every 5s).
651 Fixed memory leak in advertisement processing.
653 Sun Jun 26 18:21:17 CEST 2005
654 Plenty of bugfixes everywhere, gnunet-setup works
655 now. Releasing 0.7.0pre3.
657 Sat Jun 11 11:25:24 EST 2005
658 Fixed various problems with recursive upload
659 (thread stack size too small, wrong filenames
660 passed around, wrong list of filenames updated).
662 Sat Apr 2 01:54:23 EST 2005
663 Various bugfixes, some of them critical (segfaults,
664 protocol errors (resulting in failures to connect),
665 old version of configuration file would be
666 generated if configuration was missing,
667 gnunet-insert would not properly work with multiple
668 keywords (-k and -K options)). Releasing 0.7.0pre2.
670 Thu Mar 31 21:38:06 EST 2005
673 Tue Mar 8 14:45:55 EST 2005
674 OpenSSL cannot fully support SHA-512. Eliminated as an
675 option (not necessary, GPL incompatible, trouble, work
676 to maintain -- in summary: not worth it).
678 Sat Mar 5 00:33:51 EST 2005
679 Changing hash algorithm to SHA-512.
680 Changing symcipher algorithm to AES-256.
682 Sun Feb 27 21:59:31 EST 2005
683 All unit testcases pass. Releasing 0.7.0pre0.
685 Sat Feb 12 17:35:08 EST 2005
686 Fixed mysql-test. Changed MySQL to use prepared statements,
687 avoids conversion (mysql_escape_string) and is faster on the
690 Wed Dec 15 20:47:40 EST 2004
691 Removed support for password encryption of namespace keys.
692 Hardly used and adds hardly any security. Encrypt /home if
693 you need this, would be more effective anyway.
695 Fri Nov 26 06:27:12 EST 2004
696 Sessionkey exchange works now, at least with OpenSSL. There
697 seems to be some quirk in some version of libcrypt with
698 respect to RSA encryption. Anyway, it is a heisenbug (sometimes
699 RSA decryption does not result in what was originally
700 encrypted), but I have the feeling this problem existed
701 already in 0.6.5 -- and it is now detected and does not
704 Tue Nov 23 02:35:50 EST 2004
705 The CVS may look like it's compiling, but that's just because
706 most of the service modules are not even attempted.
707 And without those, nothing will work. But in good news,
708 util, transport and server do compile now.
710 Sun Nov 21 03:53:22 EST 2004
711 Starting to make incompatible changes. Once this is commited
712 to CVS (which will only happen once at least some parts compile
713 again), this version will no longer be compatible with any
714 previously released version of GNUnet (and highly experimental).
715 Do not yet use the new code on-line, do not expect it to work
718 Sun Nov 14 16:49:02 EST 2004
719 Debugged collections, seems to work (not that it looks pretty,
720 but it basically works, the rest is UI work). Fixed deadlock
721 in gnunet-gtk logging. Releasing GNUnet 0.6.5.
723 Thu Nov 4 09:04:48 EST 2004
724 Added (highly experimental) support for collections.
726 Sat Sep 25 22:29:48 EST 2004
727 Releasing GNUnet 0.6.4a.
729 Sun Sep 19 23:39:04 EST 2004
730 Various code cleanups and minor bugfixes.
732 Sun Aug 29 15:11:28 IST 2004
733 Releasing GNUnet 0.6.4.
735 Tue Aug 24 20:59:14 IST 2004
736 Significant enhancements to namespaces. A namespace can
737 now be annotated with meta-data at the time that it is
740 Sat Aug 21 01:00:06 IST 2004
741 Adding GNU gettext support to configure.
743 Thu Aug 19 01:26:55 IST 2004
744 Migrating gnunet-gtk to GTK 2.0 (tested with 2.4).
746 Mon Aug 16 00:30:59 IST 2004
747 Removed gcry. Added dependency on GNU MP library (libgmp)
750 Tue Aug 3 17:57:43 IST 2004
751 Fixed bugs in gnunet-update. Fixed segfault in AFS startup.
752 Fixed warnings in gnunet-peer-info/gnunetd. Fixed packaging
753 error (not all of util/gcry included in distribution).
754 Releasing GNUnet 0.6.3a.
756 Mon Aug 2 20:06:07 IST 2004
757 Releasing GNUnet 0.6.3.
759 Sun Aug 1 01:31:19 IST 2004
760 Changed most places from HexName to the new, shorter EncName.
761 Pushed URIs for namespaces and keyword searches into more
762 widespread use. Replaced all occurences of sprintf with
763 SNPRINTF (to obtain extra bounds check).
765 Sun Jul 11 13:54:01 IST 2004
766 Moved testcases for libgnunet_util to util/ directory.
767 Made DB testcases in afs/module/ run for each available
768 database and not just the one configured in /etc/gnunet.conf.
770 Fri Jun 25 21:05:59 IST 2004
771 Releasing GNUnet 0.6.2b (resolves various minor bugs).
773 Wed May 5 17:34:39 EST 2004
774 Releasing GNUnet 0.6.2a (resolves libgcrypt and packageing
775 issues, improved gtk-statistics, other minor bugfixes).
777 Fri Apr 30 21:36:23 EST 2004
778 Fixed synchronization problem in cron (only relevant for
779 parallel downloading). Releasing GNUnet 0.6.2.
781 Mon Apr 26 21:13:45 EST 2004
782 Added support to gnunet-check to convert file index database
783 to new design. Removed support for pre 0.6.1b bloomfilter
784 conversion (would have been too messy to support both).
785 Added old-version check to gnunetd startup to make updates
786 more systematic in the future (not perfect, though).
788 Mon Apr 26 19:27:29 EST 2004
789 Recursive insertion of directories with gnunet-gtk
790 now works including the progress bar.
792 Sun Apr 25 18:24:55 EST 2004
793 Global changes to fix bug #698. The fix is still
794 incomplete with respect to pthread.h specific structs.
796 Sun Apr 25 15:20:29 EST 2004
797 Fixed compile error in IPv6 transports.
799 Fri Apr 23 23:38:01 EST 2004
800 Added recursive insertion of directories to gnunet-gtk.
801 Progress-bar does not work yet, also libextractor is
802 always used (no option to turn it off).
804 Fri Apr 23 21:49:18 EST 2004
805 Removed need to specify _protocol in configuration file
808 Wed Apr 21 23:32:36 EST 2004
809 Added code to bound priority used by clients by twice the
810 average priority of requests from other peers that are
811 routed at the moment. That prevents clients from exposing
812 themselves with excessively high priorities (and also
813 avoids giving too much credit/trust needlessly).
815 Tue Apr 20 22:27:19 EST 2004
816 Added possibility of using a link instead of making a copy
817 if gnunetd and the insert-client both run on the same machine.
819 Tue Apr 20 00:00:58 EST 2004
820 Added network transparency for indexing files (by copying
821 them to a GNUnet(d) specific directory). This breaks
822 unindexing (for files indexed with previous versions) and
823 forces the user to make a copy of the file. In the near
824 future we should resolve this problem by allowing the use
827 Sun Apr 18 17:24:34 EST 2004
828 Adding recursive, parallel download of directories to
831 Sun Apr 18 01:57:32 EST 2004
832 gnunet-transport-check can now be used to check
833 external connectivity (with other peers).
835 Sat Apr 17 17:46:19 EST 2004
836 Reduced memory consuption for AFS insertion and
839 Sat Apr 10 21:17:46 EST 2004
840 Implemented statistics-plot in gnunet-gtk based on
841 gnome-system-monitor code.
843 Fri Apr 9 22:01:51 EST 2004
844 Added support for libextractor > 0.2.7.
846 Fri Apr 9 0:29:20 EST 2004
847 Completed --help conversion.
849 Wed Mar 31 15:40:51 EST 2004
852 Tue Mar 30 22:42:13 EST 2004
853 Integrated gnunet-pseudonym-create, -delete and -list into
854 gnunet-pseudonym as well as gnunet-directory-list, -emptydb
855 and -print into gnunet-directory.
857 Tue Mar 2 10:46:01 EST 2004
858 Fixing bug preventing download for indexed files <= 1k.
860 Sat Feb 28 03:43:34 EST 2004
863 Sat Feb 21 06:16:47 EST 2004
864 Modified requestmanager to improve performance at the end of the
867 Thu Feb 19 00:48:33 EST 2004
868 Fixed integer underflow possibly causing slow download performance.
870 Sun Feb 15 15:17:05 EST 2004
871 Fixed weak key failures with libgcrypt.
873 Sun Feb 15 13:14:44 EST 2004
874 New routing code (untested) commited.
876 Sun Feb 15 11:58:10 EST 2004
877 Fixing problem with 64-bit size_t on alpha (#655).
879 Sat Jan 31 04:32:33 EST 2004
882 Fri Jan 23 00:00:09 EST 2004
883 Fixed indexed content being overwritten by migrated content
885 Thu Jan 22 19:27:33 EST 2004
886 Fixed integer-overflow problems in statuscalls.
887 Fixed missing ttl/priority adjustment for NS-Queries.
888 Fixed bug in routing that would let very old queries survive.
890 Thu Jan 15 23:14:54 EST 2004
891 Fixed size of super-bloomfilter (was factor of 32 to small).
892 Fixed option -r of gnunet-check (would not increment bloom filters
893 to appropriate value).
895 Wed Dec 31 17:07:40 EST 2003
896 Fixed various routing and bandwidth allocation problems.
899 Wed Dec 24 00:00:00 EST 2003
902 Fri Dec 19 00:57:29 EST 2003
903 NAT transport passes tests.
905 Sat Dec 13 00:16:41 EST 2003
908 Thu Oct 16 19:20:29 EST 2003
909 Added greedy knapsack heuristic for use by CPU-overloaded
912 Mon Oct 13 22:36:45 EST 2003
913 Improved gnunet-gtk code that forks of gnunetd (some extra checking,
914 use fork-exec instead of system(), pass configuration file as
917 Sun Oct 12 03:42:55 EST 2003
918 Split bandwidth montoring into up and downstream.
919 Why stop sending replies merely because we *receive* traffic!?
920 Also reduced frequency of HELO exchange.
921 Added more statistics (traffic by type).
923 Fri Oct 10 02:05:13 EST 2003
924 Fixed bug that wasted a lot of CPU time.
925 Better CPU usage control by making knapsack
926 solving (frequency and problem size) dependent
929 Thu Oct 9 14:29:35 EST 2003
932 Sun Oct 5 21:35:23 EST 2003
933 GNUnet 0.6.0 released.
935 Sat Oct 4 12:54:55 EST 2003
936 Fixed bug in timer code (discovered in testcase).
937 Added extensive testcases for platform dependent code.
939 Fri Sep 19 01:38:00 EST 2003
940 Added code to allow namespace queries to return multiple
941 results. Updates are now displayed in separate tabs.
943 Wed Sep 17 23:54:15 EST 2003
944 Migrated libgcrypt code in util to comply with
945 libgcrypt 1.1.43 (and it passes the tests just fine)
947 Wed Sep 17 22:59:16 EST 2003
948 Fixed problems with updates in namespaces in the GTK code.
949 Added boolean search capability (x AND y) to GTK search.
950 Made namespace search frequency respect TTL delays.
952 Thu Aug 21 19:42:57 EST 2003
953 GNUnet 0.5.5 released.
955 Tue Aug 12 20:48:39 EST 2003
956 Support for namespaces with updates is there,
957 but requires testing.
959 Sun Jul 27 14:48:19 EST 2003
960 Added download summary window to gnunet-gtk.
962 Fri Jul 25 14:15:37 CET 2003
963 Unioned gnunet-insert-multi and gnunet-insert-sblock
966 Thu Jun 26 23:22:12 EST 2003
967 Added draft support for directories.
969 Thu Jun 26 23:21:41 EST 2003
970 GNUnet 0.5.4a released
972 Sat Jun 14 19:21:41 EST 2003
973 Added support for HTTP-PROXY to download the hostlist.
975 Wed May 29 01:13:15 EST 2003
976 Fixing some ugly bugs in connection.c that caused
977 permanent connection-drop and connection-establish
978 cycles (every 5 minutes).
980 Sat May 24 03:12:42 EST 2003
981 Migrated subset of libgcrypt into GNUnet tree to use
982 it instead of OpenSSL or libgcrypt. RSA in the new
983 code is broken at the moment.
985 Sun May 18 04:10:25 EST 2003
986 GNUnet 0.5.4 released.
988 Sat May 10 21:39:35 EST 2003
989 Only download hostlist after a while if we were
990 not able to connect (to reduce load on hostlist
993 Fri May 2 23:20:15 EST 2003
994 Added code to handle massive collisions in datastore
995 (thousands of files under the same keyword).
997 Sun Apr 27 23:52:12 EST 2003
998 GNUnet 0.5.3 released.
1000 Wed Apr 23 03:20:21 EST 2003
1001 Build system cleanup, location of mysql, gdbm, tdb and
1002 db can now be specified.
1004 Mon Apr 21 01:54:24 EST 2003
1005 Made random content selection with pIdx faster
1006 (do not read entire pidx files) and fully random
1007 (added code to weigh pidx files by number of entries).
1009 Sun Apr 20 23:25:45 EST 2003
1010 Fixed double-free in TCP transport code (seems to have
1011 only had a real chance to occur under BSD in practice).
1013 Sat Apr 19 14:42:37 EST 2003
1014 Replaced use of dlopen for plugins with the more
1015 portable ltdl from libtool.
1017 Thu Apr 17 20:36:42 EST 2003
1018 Added synchronization to pIdx, also use truncate
1019 to remove last n entries instead of re-writing the
1020 entire file (much, much faster).
1022 Mon Apr 7 00:00:07 EST 2003
1023 Implemented gnunet-delete.
1025 Sat Apr 5 15:55:31 EST 2003
1026 Made directory database use 256 sub-directories
1027 (should increase speed a lot, with the new DB
1028 manager, this will result in at most 2048
1029 files per directory).
1031 Mon Mar 31 16:51:24 EST 2003
1032 gnunet-convert and gnunet-check compile again
1033 with the new DB code.
1035 Sun Mar 30 13:14:52 CET 2003
1036 Added BSD DB (libdb) support.
1038 Sun Mar 23 04:04:38 EST 2003
1039 Big gnunet-gtk cleanup.
1041 Tue Mar 18 01:52:18 EST 2003
1044 Sun Mar 16 20:24:24 EST 2003
1045 Caching of RSA signatures for HELOs reduced CPU
1046 usage dramatically, from an average of 31% to less
1047 than 5% on my machine.
1049 Sun Mar 16 01:21:16 EST 2003
1050 Fixed locking problem and problem with TCP transport
1051 (bad set of sockets in select).
1053 Sat Mar 15 03:02:42 EST 2003
1054 Fixed bug that copied wrong content (garbage) into
1055 replies for other peers. This one was introduced
1056 briefly before 0.5.2. Argh.
1058 Fri Feb 28 00:23:02 EST 2003
1059 Fixed segfault in gnunet-gtk when closing search
1062 Thu Feb 27 16:23:20 EST 2003
1063 Releasing GNUnet 0.5.2.
1065 Mon Feb 24 00:28:52 EST 2003
1066 Cleaning up the AFS routing code, also some tweaks
1067 to improve anonymity against an active attacker.
1069 Thu Feb 20 23:51:30 EST 2003
1070 gnunet-tracekit works now nicely (and with dot).
1071 Also, GNUnet now attempts to locate a configuration
1072 file in /etc/gnunet.conf if ~/.gnunet/gnunet.conf
1073 does not exist (and nothing is specified on the
1076 Wed Feb 12 23:21:44 EST 2003
1077 Fixed deadlock between pingpong and connection
1080 Tue Feb 4 13:22:09 EST 2003
1081 Releasing GNUnet 0.5.1(a).
1083 Tue Feb 4 04:05:58 EST 2003
1084 RSA encryption of OpenSSL has been changed to pure
1085 PKCS #1 to achieve compatibility with libgcrypt.
1087 Mon Feb 3 18:46:54 EST 2003
1088 RSA signature encoding has been changed from raw
1089 to PKCS #1 compatible encoding. This should help
1090 making the migration to libgcrypt easier in the
1091 future. RSA & libgcrypt are still not friends,
1092 but the GNUnet code should be mostly there.
1094 Fri Jan 31 10:40:01 EST 2003
1095 gnunet-peer-info tool was added. This tool can
1096 prints information about all known peers and may
1097 be useful for diagnostics.
1099 Mon Jan 20 17:54:51 EST 2003
1100 A large number of memory leaks got fixed thanks
1101 to the new automated scripts to find them.
1103 Thu Jan 16 00:49:20 EST 2003
1104 Nearly finished removing dependencies on OpenSSL
1105 (using libgcrypt instead), $FOO-expansion in
1106 configuration parsing and RSA (public key crypto)
1107 are the only missing pieces.
1109 Mon Jan 13 01:53:45 EST 2003
1110 Fixed deadlock in gnunetd (would stop processing
1113 Sun Dec 27 13:34:11 CET 2002
1114 Fixed segmentation fault that occured when number
1115 of known peers goes over 128.
1117 Sat Dec 21 16:27:11 CET 2002
1118 Releasing GNUnet 0.5.0.
1120 Sat Dec 14 03:47:05 CET 2002
1121 Bugfixes over bugfixes. Various memory leaks
1122 from gnunetd to gnunet-download, problems
1123 with bloomfilters and gnunet-check, enforcing
1124 storage limitations set by the user, fixes
1125 in the UDP, TCP and SMTP transports;
1126 better thread termination (avoid asynchronous
1127 cancellation). Not to mention the new
1128 tools gnunet-transport-check and gnunet-tbench
1129 for the evaulation of correctness and performance
1130 of the transport services.
1132 Wed Nov 6 22:49:24 EST 2002
1133 Added load smoothing for network and CPU load
1134 such that we quickly adapt to increasing load,
1135 but slowly reduce the (effective) load value
1136 used in the policy if the load drops. This should
1137 help avoiding 0-1 policies where we always jump
1138 up and down between 100% load and no load, letting
1139 in one period all traffic through and in the next
1142 Wed Nov 6 00:31:39 EST 2002
1143 Added port==0 for UDP and TCP transport as an
1144 option to indicate that the transport is to be
1145 used only to establish connections to other
1146 peers but not as a server-socket (that is,
1147 if the port is 0, other GNUnet peers can not
1148 connect to the local node's UDP or TCP port,
1149 but the local node can still use UDP
1150 (unidirectional) or TCP (even bi-directional)
1151 to talk to other peers. This is useful if a
1152 node is behind a NAT box and can not receive
1153 inbound traffic but is able to send messages to
1154 other peers (and in the case of TCP even receive
1155 messages if the local peer initiated the
1156 bi-directional connection). Currently, a peer
1157 must always provide at least one transport under
1158 which the peer can be "actively" reached since
1159 otherwise other peers will not keep the public
1160 key of that peer and thus not be able to
1161 complete the session key exchange. For NAT-box
1162 peers, SMTP might be a viable choice for that
1165 Fri Oct 11 02:16:42 EST 2002
1166 Added bloomfilter interface and calls to the BF from
1167 the AFS service implementation. Missing for working
1168 bloomfilter are calls from gnunet-insert to update
1169 the bloom-filter (top-CHK and super-queries) and the
1170 actual bloom-filter implementation.
1172 Tue Oct 8 20:35:45 EST 2002
1173 TCP transport now works with only one thread (using
1174 select) instead of one thread per peer-connection.
1176 Fri Sep 27 02:24:52 EST 2002
1177 New content encoding (still only 1k blocks, but with
1178 CHK style IBocks and GBlocks for aggressive content
1179 migration) now seems to work.
1181 Mon Sep 16 01:57:55 EST 2002
1182 Implemented gnunet-chat, a demo-application for
1183 how to develop p2p applications on top of GNUnet.
1185 Sun Sep 15 22:48:28 EST 2002
1186 Fixing (long standing) problem with segfaults under BSD
1187 due to stack overflow in threads.
1189 Sun Sep 15 02:04:52 EST 2002
1190 TCP transport layer implementation seems to work now.
1191 gnunet.conf is now documented on the web. HELO exchange
1192 is fixed, so is the CS-connection whitelisting.
1194 Fri Sep 13 00:51:01 EST 2002
1195 Update on the progress towards 0.4.9. What is missing?
1196 * new content encoding to facilitate:
1198 - discriminated routing (downloads vs. searches)
1199 - variable blocksize (?)
1200 - self-synchronizing stream encoding (?)
1201 * additional transport layers (SMTP, TCP, HTTP)
1202 * demo application (chat) for how to use the API
1203 * documentation on new gnunet.conf
1205 - Igor reports, HELO exchange is broken
1206 - David reports, CS-connection whitelisting is broken
1207 - rpm.spec is outdated (add GNUnet's dynamic libraries)
1209 What has been resolved so far:
1211 * transport and application layer have been abstracted
1212 * dynamic loading of transports and applications is
1214 * routing much faster since slots are freed earlier
1215 * querymanager is more intelligent in where to send
1216 queries (presumably, not tested)
1219 * configuration can store options from commandline
1220 * statistics is totally dynamic and can be extended
1221 * connection buffer does callbacks on applications to
1222 fill buffers with queries instead of noise, and
1223 the querymanager makes use of this
1227 * gnettypes.h is gone
1228 * AFS specific code is all in AFS
1229 * renaming is also done
1231 Sun Aug 25 15:30:56 EST 2002
1232 Moving work towards 0.4.9 to CVS. The major goals are:
1233 * independent transport layer (UDP, TCP, SMTP, HTTP,
1234 any of these should be possible in the future); also,
1235 the MTU may be defined differently by any one of them.
1236 * independent application layer. Anonymous File Sharing
1237 (AFS) should just be one application for the GNUnet
1240 Other minor goals and refactorings include:
1241 * configuration - we should be able to update dynamically
1242 options from the gnunet.conf file. E.g. by adding options
1243 from the command line
1244 * statistics - we should not have a hardwired fixed set
1245 of datapoints, the statistics module should be useful
1246 for any kind of statistics
1247 * noise reduction - the connection buffer should allow
1248 the use of intelligent applications that get notified
1249 if noise would be send and then can plug in useful data
1251 And then there is just moving stuff:
1252 * move "common/" to where it belongs (either applications
1254 * gnettypes is bad if we want to seperate app specifcs
1255 and core. The typedefs should be placed where they are
1257 * database does not belong in util, it's AFS specific
1258 * AFS: cleaner separation between database, encoding,
1259 protocol implementation, shell-tools and GUI code.
1261 And finally, renaming:
1262 * if we have TCP for peer-to-peer communications,
1263 we can't use "TCP" vs. "UDP" to distinguish p2p from
1264 client-server, thus: "UDP" becomes "p2p" and "TCP"
1265 becomes "CS". At least where they were used to distinguish
1266 node-to-node and client-server (gnunetd).
1268 Sun Aug 25 15:02:31 EST 2002
1269 Releasing GNUnet 0.4.6.
1271 Thu Aug 22 01:31:21 EEST 2002
1272 gnunet-gtk should now be able to perform multiple
1273 search and download operations simultaneously (atleast a couple).
1275 Tue Aug 20 23:11:10 EEST 2002
1276 Fixed segfault in gnunet-search and gnunet-gtk which appeared
1277 when there was lots of results.
1278 Modified gnunetd to return more results at once if there
1279 is excess bandwidth.
1281 Sun Aug 18 23:57:10 EST 2002
1282 Reworked the lookup-database. The old database got
1283 into trouble storing data when it was 6% full. Some
1284 simulations show that the new approach should manage
1285 94% and should be about as fast (more CPU, presumably
1286 slightly fewer random disc accesses).
1287 This change is INCOMPATIBLE with 0.4.5. You *must*
1288 run "gnunet-check -a" before starting this new version
1289 of gnunetd in order to migrate to the new format. For
1290 database simulation and statistical numbers, see
1291 also src/historical/simula.c.
1293 Fri Aug 16 17:07:15 EST 2002
1294 Releasing GNUnet 0.4.5.
1296 Fri Aug 16 16:43:39 EST 2002
1297 Added feature that will allow the specification of
1298 multiple URLs for downloading the initial hostlist.
1300 Mon Aug 12 02:28:14 EST 2002
1301 Fixed big problem in requestmanager that would
1302 make downloads *very* slow for no good reason
1303 at all (ttl increment in wrong place would make
1304 us defer the next request for more than twice
1305 as long as needed, plus some other minor bugs).
1307 Mon Aug 12 01:31:03 EST 2002
1308 Fixed bug #347 (option "-H" to gnunet-clients for
1309 connecting to a remote gnunetd node).
1311 Mon Aug 12 01:10:17 EST 2002
1312 Fixed bug #348 (no more scan of the entire database
1313 on startup, instead the databases (gdbm, tdb) contain
1314 an entry that gives the nubmer of entries). Note that
1315 this is not done for contentdatabase_directory.
1317 Sun Aug 11 17:00:03 EEST 2002
1318 Crude file insertion capabilities added to gnunet-gtk gui.
1320 Thu Aug 8 19:13:34 EST 2002
1321 Added progress bar / printing of insertion status to
1322 gnunet-insert (option "-V").
1324 Thu Aug 8 19:02:33 EST 2002
1325 Cleaning up code (establishing sessions, etc.)
1327 Thu Aug 8 18:03:05 EST 2002
1328 Fixed bug #343 (overflow in stats) by moving to
1329 long long. Let's hope that __BYTE_ORDER is
1330 actually defined outside of netinet/in.h.
1332 Thu Aug 8 17:47:17 EST 2002
1333 Fixed gnunetd segfaulting if gnunet.conf is not
1334 available. Also, recvfrom returning -1 with
1335 errno == EAGAIN was fixed earlier.
1337 Wed Jul 31 23:38:36 EST 2002
1340 Wed Jul 31 21:35:53 EST 2002
1341 Fixed bug with TCP connection that would not
1342 free thread resources and eventually lead to
1343 gnunetd not being able to start new threads
1344 anymore (mantis: #339).
1346 Tue Jul 30 23:38:51 EST 2002
1347 Fixed SIGHUP exiting. The main loop was exiting
1348 because recvfrom returned -1 with errno EINTR,
1349 which caused us to break out of the main loop.
1350 Also added gnunetd.pid file to simplify killing
1351 (or re-reading configuration of) the server.
1352 You must specify the PIDFILE in gnunet.conf!
1354 Tue Jul 30 20:38:47 EST 2002
1355 Started writing code to enable re-reading of the
1356 configuration file whenever we receive a SIGHUP.
1357 Works, except that after we've read the new
1358 config file, gnunetd exits (unknown why).
1360 Mon Jul 29 18:52:23 EST 2002
1361 Added shutdown code that terminates connection when
1362 SIGTERM is received (to avoid keeping lots of UDP
1363 traffic for the next couple of minutes from hosts
1364 that still believe we're up).
1366 Sat Jul 27 12:39:47 EST 2002
1367 Added code to measure network load asymmetrically (useful
1370 Fri Jul 26 22:46:54 EST 2002
1373 Wed Jul 24 21:13:08 EST 2002
1374 Fixed bug in locking and segfault (Linux tolerated,
1375 BSD crashed, both in connection.c), added logging service.
1377 Tue Jul 23 00:41:17 EST 2002
1378 Made gnunetd fork like a nice deamon should. Also
1379 started to add a logging service.
1381 Sun Jul 21 20:39:20 EST 2002
1382 Fixed issue with check_database (index checking too
1383 strict if content is available in database and
1384 on-demand encoded; also a bounds check was missing).
1386 Sun Jul 21 16:05:20 EST 2002
1387 Fixed deadlock in heloexchange (knownhost requires
1390 Sun Jul 21 02:02:32 EST 2002
1391 Improved routing table. Now does more dynamic memory
1392 allocation, reducing the fixed-size per slot from 700
1393 to 56 bytes. Increased number of slots from 512 to
1394 8092 (which is the optimal number for a 56 kbps
1397 Sat Jul 20 23:57:06 EST 2002
1398 Fixed bug that caused problems for files
1399 that were indexed and that had spaces in
1402 Wed Jul 17 22:50:24 EST 2002
1403 Fixed bug that prohibited a transitive HELO exchange
1406 Wed Jul 17 01:48:44 EST 2002
1407 Fixed a couple of bugs in gnunet-check and the
1408 insertion-tools. Now gnunet-check seems to run like
1409 a charm. Running it to detect and fix problems in
1410 the GNUnet databases seems now recommendable :-).
1411 Note that you must stop gnunetd before running
1414 Mon Jul 15 22:27:45 EST 2002
1415 Added return values for insertion. If we run out of
1416 space (in particular for the fixed-size index
1417 database), we can now communicate the problem to the
1419 gnunet-check is now pretty much feature-complete,
1420 but it takes of course very, very long to run. There
1421 is now also a man-page for gnunet-check.
1423 Thu Jul 11 11:33:34 EST 2002
1424 Added randomized order of blocks for the download
1425 (patch by I. Wronsky).
1427 Thu Jun 20 21:13:21 EST 2002
1428 Added HANGUP, a message send if one side terminates the connection.
1429 Sending the message is optional, but it is nicer to have it. Also
1430 started on gnunet-check, a tool to check database consistency.
1432 Thu Jun 20 03:11:01 EST 2002
1433 Improved handling of collisions in the hashes in the
1434 lookup module (uses no longer a linear scan on the
1435 collisions file but a hashtable for the collisions!).
1437 Tue Jun 18 20:29:38 EST 2002
1438 Released GNUnet 0.4.2.
1440 Tue Jun 18 20:20:55 EST 2002
1441 Fixed bugs in blacklisting IPs. Added feature to allow specification
1442 which networks are trusted enough to connect to the trusted TCP
1443 port (TCP/2086 no longer needs to be firewalled!).
1445 Tue Jun 18 02:35:53 EST 2002
1446 Fixed problems with ttl (negative TTL queries were forwarded),
1447 also better flushing of buffers and fewer SKEY exchanges due to
1448 a now working implementation of the blacklist. A DNS lookup for
1449 the NAT-box-IP configuration was also added.
1451 Sun Jun 16 04:11:01 EST 2002
1452 Added code to provide statistics (gnunet-stats).
1455 Sun Jun 9 22:56:02 EST 2002
1456 Released GNUnet 0.4.1.
1458 Sat Jun 8 05:00:36 EST 2002
1459 Several small bugfixes (list of shared files not updated on
1460 insertion, highest-bit of trust not interpreted as dirty,
1461 rpm dependency on libextractor added.
1462 Also many improvments to the build process.
1464 Wed Jun 5 17:01:58 EST 2002
1465 Made sure that HELOs don't trigger Ping-Pong if we don't
1466 really learn anything new.
1468 Tue Jun 4 17:17:45 EST 2002
1469 The port numbers were not in network-byte order. Fixing
1470 this is trivial, but it breaks compatibility with 0.4.0.
1471 Thanks to Rick Kennell for reporting the endianess issue.
1473 Mon Jun 3 20:35:47 EST 2002
1474 Fixed bug with CRC not endian-converted in gnunet-gtk.
1475 Added mimetype and filename support to gnunet-gtk.
1477 Sun Jun 2 03:52:18 EST 2002
1480 Sat Jun 1 22:13:12 EST 2002
1481 Added three-way handshake for SKEY exchange. Not tested.
1483 Sat Jun 1 16:55:18 EST 2002
1484 Fixed potential DDoS problem where malicious hosts could
1485 trick GNUnet servers to repeatedly probe a non-partitipating host
1486 trying to establish a connection. I wonder how many other
1487 p2p systems are vulnerable. (Fix: after HELO, play PING-PONG).
1488 The endianess issues should be fixed throughout the system, but
1489 not tested on a real machine so far.
1491 Sat May 25 15:55:11 EST 2002
1492 Moved to new CVS server. First changes towards 0.4.0:
1494 * insert/index via TCP
1495 * bugfixes (mostly performance)
1497 Sat May 18 16:00:06 EST 2002
1498 Added mimetype, filename and version number to RootNodes
1499 (mostly incompatible change!). Added automatic generic keyword
1500 and mime-type extraction via libextractor to gnunet-insert.
1502 Tue May 14 23:59:40 EST 2002
1503 New storage database is starting to look good. We can now store
1504 the data in a directory (one file per block), a gdbm database,
1505 and presumably (not tested) in a tdb database.
1507 Sat May 11 22:10:56 EST 2002
1508 Completed, deployed and tested the new TCPIO code. This changes
1509 the gnunetd-client protocol. Essentially, we convert the TCP stream
1510 into records with a length and type header. This should allow us
1511 to fix bug #212 and add other features in the future. The current
1512 change is really only changing the core TCP code and not anything
1513 around it. We should deploy some demultiplexing code later.
1515 Tue May 7 20:56:40 EST 2002
1516 Added IP blacklisting (for virtual private networks).
1518 Sat May 4 14:08:23 EST 2002
1519 Fixed bug with bad insertion of files smaller than 1k.
1521 Fri May 3 23:25:16 EST 2002
1522 Added IP change detection (useful for dialup) [bug #272].
1523 Added code to ensure that a HELO is life instantly
1524 after receiving it, fixing the 'unknown host,
1525 refusing SKEY problem' (bug #273). Other minor
1526 bugfixes (#274, #283).
1528 Sun Apr 14 22:36:03 EST 2002
1529 Added option to allow NAT boxes not to exchange
1530 foreign HELOs and thus expose the private
1531 network. Fixed bug that all other hosts should
1532 in fact do this exchange.
1534 Sat Apr 13 11:02:59 EST 2002
1535 Make sure that files are readable before returning TRUE
1538 Fri Apr 12 03:01:06 EST 2002
1539 Added padding messages with random if maximum
1540 packet size is not reached. All encrypted
1541 packets now look absolutely uniform in size
1542 for a non-participating adversary (before,
1543 a host that had few queries may have sent packets
1544 that were less than the maximum size).
1546 Thu Apr 11 01:43:28 EST 2002
1547 Added sequence numbers to protocol to defend
1548 against replay attacks (bug #185).
1550 Wed Apr 10 02:07:25 EST 2002
1551 Bugfix gnunet-insert-mp3 (endless loop).
1552 Updated documentation.
1554 Mon Apr 8 00:07:15 EST 2002
1555 Fixed endless-loop bug when activemigration is turned
1556 on (during startup).
1558 Fri Apr 5 02:03:13 EST 2002
1561 Fri Apr 5 00:33:42 EST 2002
1562 gnunet-gtk, the gtk+ based GUI is now functional and
1563 has all the features of gnunet-search and gnunet-download,
1564 including boolean queries. In fact, it is a bit better than
1565 gnunet-download as it shows the progress of the download.
1566 The manpage for gnunet-gtk was updated. Minor bugfixes.
1568 Mon Mar 25 02:59:13 EST 2002
1569 Changed writeFile to use a fourth parameter which is the
1570 desired permissions for the file. Files in data/hosts
1571 are now world-readable. Created man pages
1573 Mon Mar 18 17:56:52 EST 2002
1576 Sun Mar 17 10:47:51 EST 2002
1577 Got rid of far too frequent key exchange attempts.
1578 Added expiration for very-long-dead host keys. Stopped
1579 forwarding of expired HELOs (receiver drops anyway).
1581 Wed Mar 14 05:46:20 EST 2002
1582 Fixed some file location inconsistencies. All files are
1583 now in $HOME/GNUnet. RPM installation points to /var/GNUnet
1584 and the config file is ~/GNUnet/gnunet.conf
1585 Finished port to FreeBSD. This included mostly changes
1586 to src/util/statuscalls.c, but also several changes to
1587 the build system. Added a stat() call in the server code
1588 to make sure the config file exists before sending it to
1589 the OpenSSL conf code. Added getopt to source to fix
1590 portability issues. Changed FREEBSD defs to SOMEBSD, also
1591 changed in configure.in. Compiles and works on at least
1592 FreeBSD 4.5 and OpenBSD 3.0
1594 Wed Mar 6 23:15:36 EST 2002
1595 Added code for 'fast scan' of the database for
1596 content to discard (should be called partial
1597 scan). This improves the startup-time dramatically.
1598 Every source file got the GNU header.
1600 Tue Mar 5 22:42:36 EST 2002
1601 Added option for *not* participating in content
1602 migration. Added timeout option to gnunet-search.
1603 gnunetd now periodically (1h) scans for new content,
1604 no restarting required.
1606 Mon Mar 4 23:21:51 EST 2002
1607 Optimized routing and content migration. Distance
1608 of the hash to the identity of the local host is
1609 now taken into account for routing. Hosts give
1610 higher priority to content that is close to their
1611 identity (priority towards keeping it). If the
1612 network grows, this should significantly improve
1613 the performance. Also, the choice of the hosts
1614 for routing is now based on proximity (to the
1615 query), the activity level of the host and its
1618 Sun Mar 3 00:14:58 EST 2002
1619 Implemented binary queries ("AND") for gnunet-search.
1620 Made sure that content is not downloaded again if
1621 already present (if there is other content, we
1622 overwrite). Fixed bug in gnunet-download
1623 (uninitialzied time-to-live).
1625 Sat Mar 2 01:57:37 EST 2002
1626 Finished porting the download-code to C. Now files can
1627 be downloaded in using shell commands. No GUI though.
1628 Released GNUnet v0.3.1.
1630 Wed Feb 20 23:47:19 EST 2002
1631 Big CVS moving operation.
1633 Sat Feb 16 23:17:27 EST 2002
1634 Started migration to GNUnet.
1636 Sun Feb 3 01:20:37 EST 2002
1637 Extracted crc32 method from zlib and put only that method into
1638 primitives. Reduces our memory footprint (if nobody else uses
1639 zlib) and we no longer depend no that library (always good).
1641 Sat Feb 2 22:56:32 EST 2002
1642 Building final tarball for v0.3.0.
1644 Wed Jan 30 23:41:04 EST 2002
1645 Created mp32gnet, a tool to automaticall index mp3 files
1646 using information from the mp3 header as keywords (title,
1647 artist, album, comments). The mp3 parsing code comes from
1648 the GPL tool mp3info.
1650 Tue Jan 29 17:36:48 EST 2002
1651 Fixed bug with files that were not closed under certain
1652 circumstances and lead to an exhaustion of the number of
1653 concurrently open files.
1655 Mon Jan 21 23:34:44 EST 2002
1656 Bumping version numbers to v0.3.0 (not yet released, needs some
1657 more testing to be on the safe side).
1659 Sun Jan 20 02:09:06 EST 2002
1660 Content gathering now discards the least important
1661 content in favour of new, more important content (if
1662 there is not space for all content). The cron
1663 management is now used everywhere. The rpm, the init-script
1664 and the gproxy shell script have been revised.
1666 Sun Jan 13 23:17:58 EST 2002
1667 Created cron management, replacing old control
1668 thread (allows for better timing of events).
1669 EvaluateContent now gets the priority of the
1670 query that the content had.
1672 Sun Jan 13 00:54:56 EST 2002
1673 Improved choice in number of hosts to forward
1674 queries to (now dynamic, depending on priority, etc.)
1675 Removed many, many allocations in print statements
1676 which also caused memory leaks if active (see
1678 Added CRC checking of the root node in GProxy. Fixed
1679 problem with CRC in IBlocks for large files.
1680 Added dialog to GProxy to choose where to save the file.
1682 Sat Jan 5 14:25:31 EST 2002
1683 Optimized routing table. Routing table is now a hashtable
1684 (collisions are handled by droping either the former or the
1685 new entry). Each bucket has it's own lock, the global
1686 semaphore is gone. The table has many more entries (we can
1687 afford that now that there is no longer a linear search).
1689 Wed Dec 26 19:30:41 CET 2001
