2 Releasing GNUnet 0.9.0pre4. This release includes a working
3 implementation of mesh (unoptimized), a working implementation
4 of the VPN (could use more testing), a working implementation
5 of the WLAN transport (still very slow, unoptimized) and
6 many, many bugfixes all over the place. The major known
9 * TESTING is known to sometimes crash on shutdown
10 * DV is known to crash / not work properly
11 * CHAT is experimental and was not reviewed yet
13 More details to individual bugs that were fixed in this
14 release are documented at:

17 Mon Sep 19 14:16:22 CEST 2011
18 Releasing GNUnet 0.9.0pre3. Instead of listing all that has
19 changed, here is the short list of what is known NOT to work,
20 in order of minor flaws to major issues, by module:
22 * FS still has a few missing features, but largely works
23 * TRANSPORT ATS is not used for actual bandwidth assignment,
24 important options to make it truly useful are still missing
25 * TESTING does not support incremental HELLO changes,
26 code has known shutdown issues (can crash)
27 * VPN is experimental, but has been shown to work to some degree
28 * MESH does not work (mock API emulates for VPN)
29 * TRANSPORT-WLAN is experimental
30 * TRANSPORT-HTTP is experimental, has known bugs
31 * TRANSPORT-DV is experimental, has known bugs, protocol may still change
32 * CHAT is experimental, has known bugs and was not reviewed yet
34 Thu Dec 23 23:33:05 CET 2010
35 Releasing GNUnet 0.9.0pre2.
37 Thu Oct 7 20:51:05 CEST 2010
38 Removed dependency on GNU MP (GMP). The code now uses the libgcrypt MPI
41 Sat Jul 3 20:47:45 CEST 2010
42 Releasing GNUnet 0.9.0pre1.
44 Wed Jun 23 16:34:38 CEST 2010
45 Added support for systemd-compatible passing of listen-sockets
46 by ARM to services as well as systemd compatibility for gnunet-service-arm
47 itself. At least for non-MINGW systems this should work.
49 Sat Jun 5 18:08:39 CEST 2010
50 Added support for UNIX domain sockets, code also defaults to
53 Sun May 2 13:49:10 CEST 2010
54 Fixed problem with platform-dependence of format for IP addresses
55 in HELLOs for TCP and UDP transport.
56 Reduced address length field in HELLOs to 16 bit (was 32 bit).
57 These changes break transport compatibility.
59 Fri Apr 16 18:19:05 CEST 2010
60 Nearly complete rewrite and new overall architecture. Many
61 features are still missing, but basic system seems to be
62 working again. Maybe time to again track major changes
63 in the ChangeLog. Releasing 0.9.0pre0.
66 Sun Feb 1 19:51:40 MST 2009
67 Fixed Mantis #1429 (struct padding could cause sizeof
68 to be different on AMD64, using gcc-ism "packed" to
71 Sun Feb 1 00:37:16 MST 2009
72 Fixed problem in DHT client protocol that could cause
73 PUT requests from clients to be (frequently) lost.
75 Sun Nov 2 16:06:47 MST 2008
76 Fixed problem with MySQL disconnects in one module
77 impacting MySQL correctness in another module (caused

90 result in bloomfilter update during gnunet-update.
92 Sat Jun 28 23:43:00 MDT 2008
93 Fixed bug preventing namespace advertisements from
96 Sat Jun 14 00:54:39 MDT 2008
99 Fri Jun 13 23:51:00 MDT 2008
100 GNUnet now compiles on OpenBSD.
102 Wed Jun 11 22:17:09 MDT 2008
103 Made state of gnunet-auto-share persistent.
104 Added support for multiple directories. Improved
105 FSUI/ECRS APIs to reduce the number of threads needed
106 for probing. Increased number of concurrent probes
109 Sat Jun 7 17:54:49 MDT 2008
110 Simplified namespaces a lot. Shorter timeouts for
111 trying to connect to gnunetd to prevent interactive
112 apps from blocking too long when gnunetd is not
115 Sun Jun 1 21:11:54 MDT 2008
118 Sun Jun 1 13:41:27 MDT 2008
119 Split of libgnunetpseudonym from libgnunetnamespace
120 (with major API extension and changes).
122 Tue May 6 04:10:02 MDT 2008
123 Added simple sanity check for [MODULES] values.
124 Added "-s" and "-q" options to gnunet-peer-info.
126 Thu Apr 24 00:05:17 MDT 2008
127 Simplified FSUI stop/abort/pause/resume API calls
128 (no need to pass FSUI context anymore).
130 Mon Apr 21 21:05:20 MDT 2008
131 Adding buffered IO for FSUI's serialize and
134 Sun Apr 20 20:01:20 MDT 2008
135 Fixed bug in HTTP transport causing lonely messages
136 (responses to GET) not to be delivered.
138 Mon Mar 24 21:15:36 MDT 2008
139 Fixed various problems with downloading locally
140 indexed large files (downloading large files from
141 other peers should not have been a problem).
143 Sun Mar 2 15:33:41 MST 2008
144 Added option to allow user to disable IPv6 support.
147 Sat Mar 1 21:14:02 MST 2008
148 Fixed some dstore performance issues.
149 Made transports alternate between trying IPv4 and IPv6
150 if both are available (since one of them maybe
153 Mon Feb 25 23:25:48 MST 2008
154 Cleanup of the DNS code: removed GNUNET_IPvXAddress
155 and GNUNET_PRIP; centralized all DNS lookup code in
156 util/network/dns.c; improved IPv6 support for
159 Mon Feb 25 00:01:27 MST 2008
160 Added asynchronous search and download methods for
161 ECRS library. FSUI now can do with only one thread
162 per search or download (until now, we had two
163 threads per search / download).
165 Tue Feb 19 20:35:28 MST 2008
166 Updated database schemata to support O(1) operations
167 even if there are N files under the same keywords.
168 This breaks database backwards compatibility (and
169 no migration code is provided).
171 Mon Feb 18 19:47:37 MST 2008
172 Added new options -u and -s to gnunet-insert.
174 Sat Feb 16 21:37:33 MST 2008
175 Implemented gnunet-auto-share for automatic
176 sharing of directories.
178 Thu Feb 14 01:02:32 MST 2008
179 Made HTTP transport work over IPv6 as well.
181 Wed Feb 13 22:59:07 MST 2008
182 Modified mySQL and SQLite datastores to return diverse
183 result sets during (partial) hash-based get iterations
184 (should result in more diverse keyword result sets).
186 Tue Feb 12 23:54:34 MST 2008
187 First shot at integrated hostlist HTTP server based
190 Sat Feb 9 22:06:23 MST 2008
191 Minor changes to the ECRS/FSUI APIs for searches
192 (no more timeouts and/or max-results). Clients who
193 need these features could easily implement them
194 directly (and they are not really useful to begin
196 Also, the IPv4 and IPv6 protocols are being integrated
197 so that we only listen to one port (running both IPv4
198 and IPv6 over the same port). This break transport
199 compatibility, but given that we're breaking protocol
200 compatibility for file-sharing already, this may
201 actually be a bit of a good thing (since it will now
202 be possible to tell if peers running the new GAP code
203 are connected to other peers running the new GAP code).
205 Sun Feb 3 13:17:09 MST 2008
206 Dramatic changes to the GAP implementation (breaking
207 protocol compatibility). Essentially, we can save
208 a few bytes in each reply. More importantly, the new
209 code allows the searching client to specify a set of
210 replies that are not desired (hopefully helping to
211 dramatically increase the diversity of search replies
212 obtained over time). Note that the actual encoding
213 and databases are not affected (just P2P protocol).
214 The update is not complete yet, but should compile.
216 Tue Jan 8 20:07:20 MST 2008
217 Added option for testing ("make check") to use weak(er)
218 PRNG for key generation (thanks to Werner Koch for
219 pointing out how to do it).
221 Thu Dec 22 20:10:37 MST 2007
222 Releasing GNUnet 0.7.3.
224 Sun Dec 9 14:34:32 MST 2007
225 Implemented MySQL version of the dstore-module. This
226 means that sqLite is now again truly optional.
228 Sat Dec 8 15:15:53 MST 2007
229 Integrated F2F topology into main topology module
230 (options are used to choose between F2F-only (old F2F),
231 minimum number of friend connections (NEW) or entirely
232 arbitrary connection set (default)).
234 Thu Dec 6 20:51:17 MST 2007
235 The SMTP transport is working again.
237 Thu Nov 22 20:49:16 MST 2007
238 United all libgnunetutil_*.so libraries into one big
239 libgnunetutil.so library (eliminates issues for binary
240 packagers and reduces file size by about 20%). Also
241 made sure that all exported symbols start with "GNUNET_".
243 Sat Sep 29 16:48:24 MDT 2007
244 Improved MySQL sqstore module performance.
245 Releasing GNUnet 0.7.2c.
247 Sat Sep 8 18:01:36 MDT 2007
248 HTTP transport seems finally ready.
250 Sat Aug 25 23:58:21 MDT 2007

254 Releasing GNUnet 0.7.2b.
256 Sun Jul 29 01:53:32 MDT 2007
259 Sat Jul 21 23:42:11 MDT 2007
260 Radical changes to MySQL implementation (trying to
261 address certain scalability issues).
263 Sat Jul 7 00:22:47 MDT 2007
264 Releasing GNUnet 0.7.2a.
266 Fri Jul 6 22:54:52 MDT 2007
267 Fixed bugs in F2F topology code. Eliminated a few
268 confusing LOG messages.
270 Sun Jul 1 20:35:00 MDT 2007
271 Fixed issue with too many TCP connections being
272 created. Reduced CPU overheads by increasing
273 requirements for grouping of messages. Improved
274 various error messages.
276 Sat Jun 30 01:55:34 MDT 2007
277 Improved bloomfilter recomputation after quota change.
278 Fixed bloomfilter size computation. You must run
279 gnunet-update (will take a while).
281 Fri Jun 29 00:56:03 MDT 2007
282 Avoid re-connecting shortly after connection was shutdown.
284 Thu Jun 28 01:10:01 MDT 2007
285 Fixed high-latency problems for certain SQLite operations.
286 Also improved SQLite performance (but not scalability) a
287 bit. Resolved MySQL disconnect crash (gnunetd would crash
288 if mysqld was stopped).
290 Sat Jun 23 16:56:03 MDT 2007
291 Improved CPU consumption from content migration code
292 by querying the DB less often, using the same content
293 for more peers (at the expense of 1 MB extra memory
294 utilization). Fixed a deadlock.
296 Wed Jun 20 17:10:38 MDT 2007
297 Fixed bug in MySQL module.
299 Sun Jun 17 00:09:13 MDT 2007
300 Releasing GNUnet 0.7.2.
302 Sat Jun 16 04:43:20 MDT 2007
303 http transport is amost back, now needing the
304 new libmicrohttpd. However, the code is still
305 highly experimental and not ready for production
308 Fri Jun 8 23:44:01 MDT 2007
309 Fixed bugs preventing namespace search from
310 working. Also extended testcase to cover
313 Tue May 29 23:15:27 MDT 2007
314 Fixed a major bug which resulted in peers without
315 traffic between them disconnecting (even if that
316 session was their only connection).
317 Fixed another major bug where nodes would not
318 properly forward HELLOs from other peers (given
319 certain common/default configuration options).
321 Sun May 27 22:39:48 MDT 2007
322 Added new API gnunet_testing_lib.h to make it
323 easier to write testcases that need to start
324 gnunetd. API is now used everywhere and the
325 ugly peer.conf files and directories are gone.
326 Fixed a bug with inserting empty directories.
327 Extended ECRS API to allow partial file download.
329 Sat May 26 18:24:15 MDT 2007
330 Fixed bugs with testcases (changes in names and
331 structure of options were not reflected in .conf
332 files for various testcases).
333 Fixed issues with command-line option handling (failed to
334 override configuration file options).
335 Fixed bogus nesting in GAP routing algorithm (caused
336 random request drops).
338 Fri May 25 12:23:38 MDT 2007
339 Finished extended URITRACK API.
340 Renamed various (minor) libraries and function calls to
341 get somewhat more consistent naming conventions.

344 Implemented heuristic for better packing of gnunet-directories.
346 Sun Mar 25 13:47:08 MDT 2007
347 Releasing GNUnet 0.7.1c.
349 Wed Feb 28 15:29:05 MST 2007
350 Enabled abortion of gnunet-peer-info with CTRL-C.

375 Improving support for multiple choice configuration items
378 Sat Jan 27 16:02:02 MST 2007
379 Changing $-expansion for interpretation of configuration file
380 (again). Also, now the base-path for gnunetd defaults to
381 "/var/lib/gnunet" instead of "/var/lib/GNUnet".
383 Tue Jan 23 19:48:37 MST 2007
384 Fixed problem with split-extractor keywords not being used
387 Tue Jan 16 21:43:26 MST 2007
388 Expanded transport APIs to avoid building messages for
389 transmission just to have them rejected by blocking TCPs
390 with full transmission queues (happened quite a bit).
392 Mon Jan 8 22:21:15 MST 2007
393 Making computation of send buffer permuations more
394 efficient (in terms of calling weak_randomi) by only
395 computing permuations over the actually selected messages.
397 Mon Jan 8 21:34:02 MST 2007
398 Forcing -O3 for crypto library (performance critical).
399 Enforcing message queue limit for daemon (somehow got lost
400 on the way to 0.7.1, was responsible for high CPU load).
401 Fixing cron job deletion in core (clean shutdown).
403 Sun Dec 31 23:56:31 MST 2006
404 ncurses may need "-lm" in order to link.
405 Releasing GNUnet 0.7.1a.
407 Sat Dec 30 00:21:49 MST 2006
408 DHT routing now seems to work (not integrated with file-sharing,
409 only for gnunet-dht-query).
411 Fri Dec 29 09:38:53 MST 2006
412 Added UPnP support to GNUnet (IPv4 only, #843).
414 Thu Dec 28 21:22:10 MST 2006

479 Added conversion of ECRS error messages to FSUI
480 error event messages.
482 Sun Nov 19 00:20:14 MST 2006

484 text error messages to clients (not just error codes).
486 Wed Nov 15 23:17:36 MST 2006
487 Fixed expiration time setting. Improved bias of
488 migration towards valuable content.
489 Releasing GNUnet 0.7.1pre0.

492 Fixed MySQL database size underreporting.
494 Wed Nov 1 13:09:53 MST 2006
495 Fixed some problems with index creation in sqlite
496 datastore (discovered with new sqlite benchmarking
497 code). Performance should improve significantly
498 (observed was a factor of 4-10 depending on
499 database size and operation).
501 Thu Oct 19 23:44:24 MDT 2006
502 Completed huge update to FSUI API (not fully debugged).
503 Major changes include:
504 * clients can associate pointer with each action
505 * abort methods can cancel action (but do not stop everything)
506 * upload and unindex operations can now be suspended and resumed
507 * cleaned up naming conventions
509 Thu Sep 14 23:44:17 MDT 2006
510 Breaking UDP transport protocol compatibility -- some
511 fields have to be switched around to make it work with
512 the new select code. Expect to see some warnings when
513 interacting with 0.7.0 peers.
515 Tue Sep 5 21:28:25 PDT 2006
516 Switched ncurses interface of gnunet-setup to use
517 external dialog library (new dependency!).
519 Fri Aug 18 00:01:37 PDT 2006
520 Swiched http bootstrap mechanism to using libcurl
523 Sat May 20 08:37:02 PDT 2006
524 Releasing GNUnet 0.7.0e.
526 Sun May 14 02:51:15 PDT 2006

530 Made headers more C++ friendly.
532 Wed May 10 22:11:17 PDT 2006

536 Sat May 6 00:17:59 PDT 2006
537 Releasing GNUnet 0.7.0d.
539 Fri May 5 01:33:42 PDT 2006

541 (priority was left at zero, making those blocks be
542 possibly discarded rather quickly once the datastore filled
545 Tue May 2 00:01:25 PDT 2006
546 Fixed bug in gap where the tracking of query origins for
547 optimizing routing paths lacked a simple assignment of the
548 query origin (found by code inspection). As a result,
549 routing performance should improve further. Also fixed
550 small memory leak in gap and reduced memory consumption by
553 Sat Apr 22 13:50:39 PDT 2006
554 Fixed bug in util/cron.c where stopCron() would wait for an
555 unnecessary sleep to complete.
557 Sat Mar 18 12:54:11 PST 2006
558 Releasing GNUnet 0.7.0c.
560 Thu Mar 16 22:14:01 PST 2006
561 Fixing various routing problems (resulting in better utilization
562 of bandwidth by routing more content and less queries).
564 Wed Mar 15 00:00:14 PST 2006
565 Fixing various content migration bugs (one that disabled it,
566 one that made it unlikely that migration was even tried, and
567 then various crashes in formerly dead code).
569 Mon Jan 23 19:04:17 PST 2006
570 Added Swedish translation.
572 Sun Jan 1 21:35:59 PST 2006
573 Reduced amount of hashing done to be O(n) and not O(n^2) for
574 n local search results (for example, for 100 results, this can
575 make the difference between hashing 200 MB and hashing 20 MB).
577 Sat Dec 31 17:02:37 PST 2005
578 Added support for using -k multiple times in gnunet-pseudonym.
580 Wen Dec 28 00:22:54 CET 2005

605 Mon Aug 22 00:37:11 PDT 2005
606 Made "UPDATE" use a prepared statement in MySQL datastore.
608 Sun Aug 21 23:08:57 PDT 2005
609 Fixed bugs causing unnecessary long delays for downloads from
610 loopback. Also now bypassing routing table for loopback download
611 (faster, avoids pollution of the routing table when not needed).
613 Sun Aug 21 18:42:14 PDT 2005
614 Fixed memory leak in gnunet-insert -R. Improved memory utilization
615 by SQlite dramatically (see discussion on gnunet-developers).
617 Sat Aug 20 21:04:28 PDT 2005
618 Fixed (rare) segmentation fault in insertion code.
620 Sat Aug 20 19:31:10 PDT 2005
621 Yet another tiny bug -- but one that hangs gnunetd; fixed in pre6a.
623 Sat Aug 20 13:51:01 PDT 2005
626 Sat Aug 20 12:51:27 PDT 2005
627 Changed sqlite data format to avoid encoding-decoding
628 (breaks compatibility with previous datastores, in particular
629 since conversion code is NOT provided).
630 The page size was also increased, rendering the database files
633 Thu Aug 18 21:18:28 PDT 2005
634 Made quotations match GNU standards.
636 Wed Aug 17 20:05:19 PDT 2005

642 core and fs (see Mantis for more details).
644 Mon Jul 18 01:03:05 CEST 2005
645 Alpha-rename fest. Releasing 0.7.0pre5.
647 Sun Jul 17 13:49:40 CEST 2005

649 AMDs. Fixed recently introduced memory leak.
650 Fixed various compiler warnings.
652 Sat Jul 16 23:55:31 CEST 2005
653 Fixed various minor problems with platforms
654 without gettext/NLS support and for 64-bit size_ts.

656 Cleaned up connection.c code.
658 Mon Jul 11 14:41:18 CEST 2005
659 Fixed tiny memory leak in http_bootstrap.
661 Mon Jul 11 02:22:24 CEST 2005
662 Fixed long-standing problems in statuscalls wrt
663 network load estimates, leading to too-high bandwidth
664 consumption on average. Fixed minor memory leaks.
665 Fixed far too often session-key exchange (was done
666 also for sessions that were already up).
668 Thu Jul 7 15:22:21 CEST 2005
669 Fixed bug in identity, missing ntohs for protocol ID.
670 Fixed bug in topology, wrong calculation of saturation.
672 Wed Jul 6 22:34:30 CEST 2005
673 Fixed bugs in core with respect to possible infinite
674 recursion caused by fragmentation callbacks. Also
675 differenciated between fatal transport sends and
676 transient transport sends. Cleanup of some APIs.
678 Sat Jul 2 17:21:07 CEST 2005
679 Fixed bugs in gnunet-pseudonym (listing of namespaces),
680 FSUI (double-free for namespace creation), cleaned up
681 APIs and implemented clearing of completed downloads
682 (FSUI). Releasing 0.7.0pre4.
684 Fri Jul 1 15:08:42 CEST 2005
685 Added statistics for transports and other connection-
686 related functions. Prevented core from dropping
687 messages just because transport is (temporarily)
688 blocked. Made transport selection in identity random
689 again where necessary.
691 Thu Jun 30 20:05:15 CEST 2005
692 Added cache for KBlocks (can speed up insertion speed
693 for recursive inserts quite a bit).
695 Thu Jun 30 13:52:17 CEST 2005
696 Enabled IPv6 by default. Fixed various minor bugs.
698 Tue Jun 28 13:41:58 UTC 2005
699 Fixed various open FIXMEs, including error handling,
700 bad performance and some memory leaks (gnunet-tools
701 only, not in gnunetd).
703 Mon Jun 27 17:21:09 CEST 2005
704 Fixed double-free segfault.
705 Fixed problem with session timeout not happening.
706 Fixed issue with too lazy slot reclaim for reconnect.
707 Made reconnect scanning more incremental (1/10th of
708 the work every 500ms instead of full work every 5s).
709 Fixed memory leak in advertisement processing.
711 Sun Jun 26 18:21:17 CEST 2005
712 Plenty of bugfixes everywhere, gnunet-setup works
713 now. Releasing 0.7.0pre3.
715 Sat Jun 11 11:25:24 EST 2005
716 Fixed various problems with recursive upload
717 (thread stack size too small, wrong filenames
718 passed around, wrong list of filenames updated).
720 Sat Apr 2 01:54:23 EST 2005
721 Various bugfixes, some of them critical (segfaults,
722 protocol errors (resulting in failures to connect),
723 old version of configuration file would be
724 generated if configuration was missing,
725 gnunet-insert would not properly work with multiple
726 keywords (-k and -K options)). Releasing 0.7.0pre2.
728 Thu Mar 31 21:38:06 EST 2005
731 Tue Mar 8 14:45:55 EST 2005
732 OpenSSL cannot fully support SHA-512. Eliminated as an
733 option (not necessary, GPL incompatible, trouble, work
734 to maintain -- in summary: not worth it).
736 Sat Mar 5 00:33:51 EST 2005
737 Changing hash algorithm to SHA-512.
738 Changing symcipher algorithm to AES-256.
740 Sun Feb 27 21:59:31 EST 2005
741 All unit testcases pass. Releasing 0.7.0pre0.
743 Sat Feb 12 17:35:08 EST 2005
744 Fixed mysql-test. Changed MySQL to use prepared statements,
745 avoids conversion (mysql_escape_string) and is faster on the
748 Wed Dec 15 20:47:40 EST 2004
749 Removed support for password encryption of namespace keys.
750 Hardly used and adds hardly any security. Encrypt /home if
751 you need this, would be more effective anyway.
753 Fri Nov 26 06:27:12 EST 2004
754 Sessionkey exchange works now, at least with OpenSSL. There
755 seems to be some quirk in some version of libcrypt with
756 respect to RSA encryption. Anyway, it is a heisenbug (sometimes
757 RSA decryption does not result in what was originally
758 encrypted), but I have the feeling this problem existed
759 already in 0.6.5 -- and it is now detected and does not
762 Tue Nov 23 02:35:50 EST 2004
763 The CVS may look like it's compiling, but that's just because
764 most of the service modules are not even attempted.
765 And without those, nothing will work. But in good news,
766 util, transport and server do compile now.
768 Sun Nov 21 03:53:22 EST 2004
769 Starting to make incompatible changes. Once this is commited
770 to CVS (which will only happen once at least some parts compile
771 again), this version will no longer be compatible with any
772 previously released version of GNUnet (and highly experimental).
773 Do not yet use the new code on-line, do not expect it to work
776 Sun Nov 14 16:49:02 EST 2004
777 Debugged collections, seems to work (not that it looks pretty,
778 but it basically works, the rest is UI work). Fixed deadlock
779 in gnunet-gtk logging. Releasing GNUnet 0.6.5.
781 Thu Nov 4 09:04:48 EST 2004
782 Added (highly experimental) support for collections.
784 Sat Sep 25 22:29:48 EST 2004
785 Releasing GNUnet 0.6.4a.
787 Sun Sep 19 23:39:04 EST 2004

790 Sun Aug 29 15:11:28 IST 2004
791 Releasing GNUnet 0.6.4.
793 Tue Aug 24 20:59:14 IST 2004
794 Significant enhancements to namespaces. A namespace can
795 now be annotated with meta-data at the time that it is
798 Sat Aug 21 01:00:06 IST 2004
799 Adding GNU gettext support to configure.
801 Thu Aug 19 01:26:55 IST 2004
802 Migrating gnunet-gtk to GTK 2.0 (tested with 2.4).
804 Mon Aug 16 00:30:59 IST 2004
805 Removed gcry. Added dependency on GNU MP library (libgmp)
808 Tue Aug 3 17:57:43 IST 2004
809 Fixed bugs in gnunet-update. Fixed segfault in AFS startup.
810 Fixed warnings in gnunet-peer-info/gnunetd. Fixed packaging
811 error (not all of util/gcry included in distribution).
812 Releasing GNUnet 0.6.3a.
814 Mon Aug 2 20:06:07 IST 2004
815 Releasing GNUnet 0.6.3.
817 Sun Aug 1 01:31:19 IST 2004
818 Changed most places from HexName to the new, shorter EncName.
819 Pushed URIs for namespaces and keyword searches into more
820 widespread use. Replaced all occurences of sprintf with
821 SNPRINTF (to obtain extra bounds check).
823 Sun Jul 11 13:54:01 IST 2004
824 Moved testcases for libgnunet_util to util/ directory.
825 Made DB testcases in afs/module/ run for each available
826 database and not just the one configured in /etc/gnunet.conf.
828 Fri Jun 25 21:05:59 IST 2004
829 Releasing GNUnet 0.6.2b (resolves various minor bugs).
831 Wed May 5 17:34:39 EST 2004
832 Releasing GNUnet 0.6.2a (resolves libgcrypt and packageing
833 issues, improved gtk-statistics, other minor bugfixes).
835 Fri Apr 30 21:36:23 EST 2004
836 Fixed synchronization problem in cron (only relevant for
837 parallel downloading). Releasing GNUnet 0.6.2.
839 Mon Apr 26 21:13:45 EST 2004
840 Added support to gnunet-check to convert file index database
841 to new design. Removed support for pre 0.6.1b bloomfilter
842 conversion (would have been too messy to support both).
843 Added old-version check to gnunetd startup to make updates
844 more systematic in the future (not perfect, though).
846 Mon Apr 26 19:27:29 EST 2004
847 Recursive insertion of directories with gnunet-gtk
848 now works including the progress bar.
850 Sun Apr 25 18:24:55 EST 2004
851 Global changes to fix bug #698. The fix is still
852 incomplete with respect to pthread.h specific structs.
854 Sun Apr 25 15:20:29 EST 2004
855 Fixed compile error in IPv6 transports.
857 Fri Apr 23 23:38:01 EST 2004
858 Added recursive insertion of directories to gnunet-gtk.
859 Progress-bar does not work yet, also libextractor is
860 always used (no option to turn it off).
862 Fri Apr 23 21:49:18 EST 2004
863 Removed need to specify _protocol in configuration file
866 Wed Apr 21 23:32:36 EST 2004
867 Added code to bound priority used by clients by twice the
868 average priority of requests from other peers that are
869 routed at the moment. That prevents clients from exposing
870 themselves with excessively high priorities (and also
871 avoids giving too much credit/trust needlessly).
873 Tue Apr 20 22:27:19 EST 2004
874 Added possibility of using a link instead of making a copy
875 if gnunetd and the insert-client both run on the same machine.
877 Tue Apr 20 00:00:58 EST 2004
878 Added network transparency for indexing files (by copying
879 them to a GNUnet(d) specific directory). This breaks
880 unindexing (for files indexed with previous versions) and
881 forces the user to make a copy of the file. In the near
882 future we should resolve this problem by allowing the use
885 Sun Apr 18 17:24:34 EST 2004
886 Adding recursive, parallel download of directories to
889 Sun Apr 18 01:57:32 EST 2004
890 gnunet-transport-check can now be used to check
891 external connectivity (with other peers).
893 Sat Apr 17 17:46:19 EST 2004
894 Reduced memory consuption for AFS insertion and
897 Sat Apr 10 21:17:46 EST 2004
898 Implemented statistics-plot in gnunet-gtk based on
899 gnome-system-monitor code.
901 Fri Apr 9 22:01:51 EST 2004
902 Added support for libextractor > 0.2.7.
904 Fri Apr 9 0:29:20 EST 2004
905 Completed --help conversion.
907 Wed Mar 31 15:40:51 EST 2004
910 Tue Mar 30 22:42:13 EST 2004
911 Integrated gnunet-pseudonym-create, -delete and -list into
912 gnunet-pseudonym as well as gnunet-directory-list, -emptydb
913 and -print into gnunet-directory.
915 Tue Mar 2 10:46:01 EST 2004
916 Fixing bug preventing download for indexed files <= 1k.
918 Sat Feb 28 03:43:34 EST 2004
921 Sat Feb 21 06:16:47 EST 2004
922 Modified requestmanager to improve performance at the end of the
925 Thu Feb 19 00:48:33 EST 2004
926 Fixed integer underflow possibly causing slow download performance.
928 Sun Feb 15 15:17:05 EST 2004
929 Fixed weak key failures with libgcrypt.
931 Sun Feb 15 13:14:44 EST 2004
932 New routing code (untested) commited.
934 Sun Feb 15 11:58:10 EST 2004
935 Fixing problem with 64-bit size_t on alpha (#655).
937 Sat Jan 31 04:32:33 EST 2004
940 Fri Jan 23 00:00:09 EST 2004
941 Fixed indexed content being overwritten by migrated content
943 Thu Jan 22 19:27:33 EST 2004
944 Fixed integer-overflow problems in statuscalls.
945 Fixed missing ttl/priority adjustment for NS-Queries.
946 Fixed bug in routing that would let very old queries survive.
948 Thu Jan 15 23:14:54 EST 2004
949 Fixed size of super-bloomfilter (was factor of 32 to small).
950 Fixed option -r of gnunet-check (would not increment bloom filters
951 to appropriate value).
953 Wed Dec 31 17:07:40 EST 2003
954 Fixed various routing and bandwidth allocation problems.
957 Wed Dec 24 00:00:00 EST 2003
960 Fri Dec 19 00:57:29 EST 2003
961 NAT transport passes tests.
963 Sat Dec 13 00:16:41 EST 2003
966 Thu Oct 16 19:20:29 EST 2003
967 Added greedy knapsack heuristic for use by CPU-overloaded
970 Mon Oct 13 22:36:45 EST 2003
971 Improved gnunet-gtk code that forks of gnunetd (some extra checking,
972 use fork-exec instead of system(), pass configuration file as
975 Sun Oct 12 03:42:55 EST 2003
976 Split bandwidth montoring into up and downstream.
977 Why stop sending replies merely because we *receive* traffic!?
978 Also reduced frequency of HELO exchange.
979 Added more statistics (traffic by type).
981 Fri Oct 10 02:05:13 EST 2003
982 Fixed bug that wasted a lot of CPU time.
983 Better CPU usage control by making knapsack
984 solving (frequency and problem size) dependent
987 Thu Oct 9 14:29:35 EST 2003
990 Sun Oct 5 21:35:23 EST 2003
991 GNUnet 0.6.0 released.
993 Sat Oct 4 12:54:55 EST 2003
994 Fixed bug in timer code (discovered in testcase).
995 Added extensive testcases for platform dependent code.
997 Fri Sep 19 01:38:00 EST 2003
998 Added code to allow namespace queries to return multiple
999 results. Updates are now displayed in separate tabs.
1001 Wed Sep 17 23:54:15 EST 2003
1002 Migrated libgcrypt code in util to comply with
1003 libgcrypt 1.1.43 (and it passes the tests just fine)
1005 Wed Sep 17 22:59:16 EST 2003
1006 Fixed problems with updates in namespaces in the GTK code.
1007 Added boolean search capability (x AND y) to GTK search.
1008 Made namespace search frequency respect TTL delays.
1010 Thu Aug 21 19:42:57 EST 2003
1011 GNUnet 0.5.5 released.
1013 Tue Aug 12 20:48:39 EST 2003
1014 Support for namespaces with updates is there,
1015 but requires testing.
1017 Sun Jul 27 14:48:19 EST 2003
1018 Added download summary window to gnunet-gtk.
1020 Fri Jul 25 14:15:37 CET 2003
1021 Unioned gnunet-insert-multi and gnunet-insert-sblock
1024 Thu Jun 26 23:22:12 EST 2003

1027 Thu Jun 26 23:21:41 EST 2003
1028 GNUnet 0.5.4a released
1030 Sat Jun 14 19:21:41 EST 2003
1031 Added support for HTTP-PROXY to download the hostlist.
1033 Wed May 29 01:13:15 EST 2003
1034 Fixing some ugly bugs in connection.c that caused
1035 permanent connection-drop and connection-establish
1036 cycles (every 5 minutes).
1038 Sat May 24 03:12:42 EST 2003
1039 Migrated subset of libgcrypt into GNUnet tree to use
1040 it instead of OpenSSL or libgcrypt. RSA in the new
1041 code is broken at the moment.
1043 Sun May 18 04:10:25 EST 2003
1044 GNUnet 0.5.4 released.
1046 Sat May 10 21:39:35 EST 2003
1047 Only download hostlist after a while if we were
1048 not able to connect (to reduce load on hostlist
1051 Fri May 2 23:20:15 EST 2003
1052 Added code to handle massive collisions in datastore
1053 (thousands of files under the same keyword).
1055 Sun Apr 27 23:52:12 EST 2003
1056 GNUnet 0.5.3 released.
1058 Wed Apr 23 03:20:21 EST 2003
1059 Build system cleanup, location of mysql, gdbm, tdb and
1060 db can now be specified.
1062 Mon Apr 21 01:54:24 EST 2003
1063 Made random content selection with pIdx faster
1064 (do not read entire pidx files) and fully random
1065 (added code to weigh pidx files by number of entries).
1067 Sun Apr 20 23:25:45 EST 2003
1068 Fixed double-free in TCP transport code (seems to have
1069 only had a real chance to occur under BSD in practice).
1071 Sat Apr 19 14:42:37 EST 2003
1072 Replaced use of dlopen for plugins with the more
1073 portable ltdl from libtool.
1075 Thu Apr 17 20:36:42 EST 2003
1076 Added synchronization to pIdx, also use truncate
1077 to remove last n entries instead of re-writing the
1078 entire file (much, much faster).
1080 Mon Apr 7 00:00:07 EST 2003
1081 Implemented gnunet-delete.
1083 Sat Apr 5 15:55:31 EST 2003
1084 Made directory database use 256 sub-directories
1085 (should increase speed a lot, with the new DB
1086 manager, this will result in at most 2048
1087 files per directory).
1089 Mon Mar 31 16:51:24 EST 2003
1090 gnunet-convert and gnunet-check compile again
1091 with the new DB code.
1093 Sun Mar 30 13:14:52 CET 2003
1094 Added BSD DB (libdb) support.
1096 Sun Mar 23 04:04:38 EST 2003
1097 Big gnunet-gtk cleanup.
1099 Tue Mar 18 01:52:18 EST 2003
1102 Sun Mar 16 20:24:24 EST 2003
1103 Caching of RSA signatures for HELOs reduced CPU
1104 usage dramatically, from an average of 31% to less
1105 than 5% on my machine.
1107 Sun Mar 16 01:21:16 EST 2003
1108 Fixed locking problem and problem with TCP transport
1109 (bad set of sockets in select).
1111 Sat Mar 15 03:02:42 EST 2003
1112 Fixed bug that copied wrong content (garbage) into
1113 replies for other peers. This one was introduced
1114 briefly before 0.5.2. Argh.
1116 Fri Feb 28 00:23:02 EST 2003
1117 Fixed segfault in gnunet-gtk when closing search
1120 Thu Feb 27 16:23:20 EST 2003
1121 Releasing GNUnet 0.5.2.
1123 Mon Feb 24 00:28:52 EST 2003
1124 Cleaning up the AFS routing code, also some tweaks
1125 to improve anonymity against an active attacker.
1127 Thu Feb 20 23:51:30 EST 2003
1128 gnunet-tracekit works now nicely (and with dot).
1129 Also, GNUnet now attempts to locate a configuration
1130 file in /etc/gnunet.conf if ~/.gnunet/gnunet.conf
1131 does not exist (and nothing is specified on the
1134 Wed Feb 12 23:21:44 EST 2003
1135 Fixed deadlock between pingpong and connection
1138 Tue Feb 4 13:22:09 EST 2003
1139 Releasing GNUnet 0.5.1(a).
1141 Tue Feb 4 04:05:58 EST 2003
1142 RSA encryption of OpenSSL has been changed to pure
1143 PKCS #1 to achieve compatibility with libgcrypt.
1145 Mon Feb 3 18:46:54 EST 2003
1146 RSA signature encoding has been changed from raw
1147 to PKCS #1 compatible encoding. This should help
1148 making the migration to libgcrypt easier in the
1149 future. RSA & libgcrypt are still not friends,
1150 but the GNUnet code should be mostly there.
1152 Fri Jan 31 10:40:01 EST 2003
1153 gnunet-peer-info tool was added. This tool can
1154 prints information about all known peers and may
1155 be useful for diagnostics.
1157 Mon Jan 20 17:54:51 EST 2003
1158 A large number of memory leaks got fixed thanks
1159 to the new automated scripts to find them.
1161 Thu Jan 16 00:49:20 EST 2003
1162 Nearly finished removing dependencies on OpenSSL
1163 (using libgcrypt instead), $FOO-expansion in
1164 configuration parsing and RSA (public key crypto)
1165 are the only missing pieces.
1167 Mon Jan 13 01:53:45 EST 2003
1168 Fixed deadlock in gnunetd (would stop processing
1171 Sun Dec 27 13:34:11 CET 2002
1172 Fixed segmentation fault that occured when number
1173 of known peers goes over 128.
1175 Sat Dec 21 16:27:11 CET 2002
1176 Releasing GNUnet 0.5.0.
1178 Sat Dec 14 03:47:05 CET 2002
1179 Bugfixes over bugfixes. Various memory leaks
1180 from gnunetd to gnunet-download, problems
1181 with bloomfilters and gnunet-check, enforcing
1182 storage limitations set by the user, fixes
1183 in the UDP, TCP and SMTP transports;
1184 better thread termination (avoid asynchronous
1185 cancellation). Not to mention the new
1186 tools gnunet-transport-check and gnunet-tbench
1187 for the evaulation of correctness and performance
1188 of the transport services.
1190 Wed Nov 6 22:49:24 EST 2002
1191 Added load smoothing for network and CPU load
1192 such that we quickly adapt to increasing load,
1193 but slowly reduce the (effective) load value
1194 used in the policy if the load drops. This should
1195 help avoiding 0-1 policies where we always jump
1196 up and down between 100% load and no load, letting
1197 in one period all traffic through and in the next
1200 Wed Nov 6 00:31:39 EST 2002
1201 Added port==0 for UDP and TCP transport as an
1202 option to indicate that the transport is to be
1203 used only to establish connections to other
1204 peers but not as a server-socket (that is,
1205 if the port is 0, other GNUnet peers can not
1206 connect to the local node's UDP or TCP port,
1207 but the local node can still use UDP
1208 (unidirectional) or TCP (even bi-directional)
1209 to talk to other peers. This is useful if a
1210 node is behind a NAT box and can not receive
1211 inbound traffic but is able to send messages to
1212 other peers (and in the case of TCP even receive
1213 messages if the local peer initiated the
1214 bi-directional connection). Currently, a peer
1215 must always provide at least one transport under
1216 which the peer can be "actively" reached since
1217 otherwise other peers will not keep the public
1218 key of that peer and thus not be able to
1219 complete the session key exchange. For NAT-box
1220 peers, SMTP might be a viable choice for that
1223 Fri Oct 11 02:16:42 EST 2002
1224 Added bloomfilter interface and calls to the BF from
1225 the AFS service implementation. Missing for working
1226 bloomfilter are calls from gnunet-insert to update
1227 the bloom-filter (top-CHK and super-queries) and the
1228 actual bloom-filter implementation.
1230 Tue Oct 8 20:35:45 EST 2002
1231 TCP transport now works with only one thread (using
1232 select) instead of one thread per peer-connection.
1234 Fri Sep 27 02:24:52 EST 2002
1235 New content encoding (still only 1k blocks, but with
1236 CHK style IBocks and GBlocks for aggressive content
1237 migration) now seems to work.
1239 Mon Sep 16 01:57:55 EST 2002
1240 Implemented gnunet-chat, a demo-application for
1241 how to develop p2p applications on top of GNUnet.
1243 Sun Sep 15 22:48:28 EST 2002
1244 Fixing (long standing) problem with segfaults under BSD
1245 due to stack overflow in threads.
1247 Sun Sep 15 02:04:52 EST 2002
1248 TCP transport layer implementation seems to work now.
1249 gnunet.conf is now documented on the web. HELO exchange
1250 is fixed, so is the CS-connection whitelisting.
1252 Fri Sep 13 00:51:01 EST 2002
1253 Update on the progress towards 0.4.9. What is missing?
1254 * new content encoding to facilitate:
1256 - discriminated routing (downloads vs. searches)
1257 - variable blocksize (?)
1258 - self-synchronizing stream encoding (?)
1259 * additional transport layers (SMTP, TCP, HTTP)
1260 * demo application (chat) for how to use the API
1261 * documentation on new gnunet.conf
1263 - Igor reports, HELO exchange is broken
1264 - David reports, CS-connection whitelisting is broken
1265 - rpm.spec is outdated (add GNUnet's dynamic libraries)
1267 What has been resolved so far:
1269 * transport and application layer have been abstracted
1270 * dynamic loading of transports and applications is
1272 * routing much faster since slots are freed earlier
1273 * querymanager is more intelligent in where to send
1274 queries (presumably, not tested)
1277 * configuration can store options from commandline
1278 * statistics is totally dynamic and can be extended
1279 * connection buffer does callbacks on applications to
1280 fill buffers with queries instead of noise, and
1281 the querymanager makes use of this
1285 * gnettypes.h is gone
1286 * AFS specific code is all in AFS
1287 * renaming is also done
1289 Sun Aug 25 15:30:56 EST 2002
1290 Moving work towards 0.4.9 to CVS. The major goals are:
1291 * independent transport layer (UDP, TCP, SMTP, HTTP,
1292 any of these should be possible in the future); also,
1293 the MTU may be defined differently by any one of them.
1294 * independent application layer. Anonymous File Sharing
1295 (AFS) should just be one application for the GNUnet
1298 Other minor goals and refactorings include:
1299 * configuration - we should be able to update dynamically
1300 options from the gnunet.conf file. E.g. by adding options
1301 from the command line
1302 * statistics - we should not have a hardwired fixed set
1303 of datapoints, the statistics module should be useful
1304 for any kind of statistics
1305 * noise reduction - the connection buffer should allow
1306 the use of intelligent applications that get notified
1307 if noise would be send and then can plug in useful data
1309 And then there is just moving stuff:
1310 * move "common/" to where it belongs (either applications
1312 * gnettypes is bad if we want to seperate app specifcs
1313 and core. The typedefs should be placed where they are
1315 * database does not belong in util, it's AFS specific
1316 * AFS: cleaner separation between database, encoding,
1317 protocol implementation, shell-tools and GUI code.
1319 And finally, renaming:
1320 * if we have TCP for peer-to-peer communications,
1321 we can't use "TCP" vs. "UDP" to distinguish p2p from
1322 client-server, thus: "UDP" becomes "p2p" and "TCP"
1323 becomes "CS". At least where they were used to distinguish
1324 node-to-node and client-server (gnunetd).
1326 Sun Aug 25 15:02:31 EST 2002
1327 Releasing GNUnet 0.4.6.
1329 Thu Aug 22 01:31:21 EEST 2002
1330 gnunet-gtk should now be able to perform multiple
1331 search and download operations simultaneously (atleast a couple).
1333 Tue Aug 20 23:11:10 EEST 2002
1334 Fixed segfault in gnunet-search and gnunet-gtk which appeared
1335 when there was lots of results.
1336 Modified gnunetd to return more results at once if there
1337 is excess bandwidth.
1339 Sun Aug 18 23:57:10 EST 2002
1340 Reworked the lookup-database. The old database got
1341 into trouble storing data when it was 6% full. Some
1342 simulations show that the new approach should manage
1343 94% and should be about as fast (more CPU, presumably
1344 slightly fewer random disc accesses).
1345 This change is INCOMPATIBLE with 0.4.5. You *must*
1346 run "gnunet-check -a" before starting this new version
1347 of gnunetd in order to migrate to the new format. For
1348 database simulation and statistical numbers, see
1349 also src/historical/simula.c.
1351 Fri Aug 16 17:07:15 EST 2002
1352 Releasing GNUnet 0.4.5.
1354 Fri Aug 16 16:43:39 EST 2002
1355 Added feature that will allow the specification of
1356 multiple URLs for downloading the initial hostlist.
1358 Mon Aug 12 02:28:14 EST 2002
1359 Fixed big problem in requestmanager that would
1360 make downloads *very* slow for no good reason
1361 at all (ttl increment in wrong place would make
1362 us defer the next request for more than twice
1363 as long as needed, plus some other minor bugs).
1365 Mon Aug 12 01:31:03 EST 2002
1366 Fixed bug #347 (option "-H" to gnunet-clients for
1367 connecting to a remote gnunetd node).
1369 Mon Aug 12 01:10:17 EST 2002
1370 Fixed bug #348 (no more scan of the entire database
1371 on startup, instead the databases (gdbm, tdb) contain
1372 an entry that gives the nubmer of entries). Note that
1373 this is not done for contentdatabase_directory.
1375 Sun Aug 11 17:00:03 EEST 2002
1376 Crude file insertion capabilities added to gnunet-gtk gui.
1378 Thu Aug 8 19:13:34 EST 2002
1379 Added progress bar / printing of insertion status to
1380 gnunet-insert (option "-V").
1382 Thu Aug 8 19:02:33 EST 2002
1383 Cleaning up code (establishing sessions, etc.)
1385 Thu Aug 8 18:03:05 EST 2002
1386 Fixed bug #343 (overflow in stats) by moving to
1387 long long. Let's hope that __BYTE_ORDER is
1388 actually defined outside of netinet/in.h.
1390 Thu Aug 8 17:47:17 EST 2002
1391 Fixed gnunetd segfaulting if gnunet.conf is not
1392 available. Also, recvfrom returning -1 with
1393 errno == EAGAIN was fixed earlier.
1395 Wed Jul 31 23:38:36 EST 2002
1398 Wed Jul 31 21:35:53 EST 2002
1399 Fixed bug with TCP connection that would not
1400 free thread resources and eventually lead to
1401 gnunetd not being able to start new threads
1402 anymore (mantis: #339).
1404 Tue Jul 30 23:38:51 EST 2002
1405 Fixed SIGHUP exiting. The main loop was exiting
1406 because recvfrom returned -1 with errno EINTR,
1407 which caused us to break out of the main loop.
1408 Also added gnunetd.pid file to simplify killing
1409 (or re-reading configuration of) the server.
1410 You must specify the PIDFILE in gnunet.conf!
1412 Tue Jul 30 20:38:47 EST 2002
1413 Started writing code to enable re-reading of the
1414 configuration file whenever we receive a SIGHUP.
1415 Works, except that after we've read the new
1416 config file, gnunetd exits (unknown why).
1418 Mon Jul 29 18:52:23 EST 2002
1419 Added shutdown code that terminates connection when
1420 SIGTERM is received (to avoid keeping lots of UDP
1421 traffic for the next couple of minutes from hosts
1422 that still believe we're up).
1424 Sat Jul 27 12:39:47 EST 2002
1425 Added code to measure network load asymmetrically (useful
1428 Fri Jul 26 22:46:54 EST 2002
1431 Wed Jul 24 21:13:08 EST 2002
1432 Fixed bug in locking and segfault (Linux tolerated,
1433 BSD crashed, both in connection.c), added logging service.
1435 Tue Jul 23 00:41:17 EST 2002
1436 Made gnunetd fork like a nice deamon should. Also
1437 started to add a logging service.
1439 Sun Jul 21 20:39:20 EST 2002
1440 Fixed issue with check_database (index checking too
1441 strict if content is available in database and
1442 on-demand encoded; also a bounds check was missing).
1444 Sun Jul 21 16:05:20 EST 2002
1445 Fixed deadlock in heloexchange (knownhost requires
1448 Sun Jul 21 02:02:32 EST 2002
1449 Improved routing table. Now does more dynamic memory
1450 allocation, reducing the fixed-size per slot from 700
1451 to 56 bytes. Increased number of slots from 512 to
1452 8092 (which is the optimal number for a 56 kbps
1455 Sat Jul 20 23:57:06 EST 2002
1456 Fixed bug that caused problems for files
1457 that were indexed and that had spaces in
1460 Wed Jul 17 22:50:24 EST 2002
1461 Fixed bug that prohibited a transitive HELO exchange
1464 Wed Jul 17 01:48:44 EST 2002
1465 Fixed a couple of bugs in gnunet-check and the
1466 insertion-tools. Now gnunet-check seems to run like
1467 a charm. Running it to detect and fix problems in
1468 the GNUnet databases seems now recommendable :-).
1469 Note that you must stop gnunetd before running
1472 Mon Jul 15 22:27:45 EST 2002
1473 Added return values for insertion. If we run out of
1474 space (in particular for the fixed-size index
1475 database), we can now communicate the problem to the
1477 gnunet-check is now pretty much feature-complete,
1478 but it takes of course very, very long to run. There
1479 is now also a man-page for gnunet-check.
1481 Thu Jul 11 11:33:34 EST 2002
1482 Added randomized order of blocks for the download
1483 (patch by I. Wronsky).
1485 Thu Jun 20 21:13:21 EST 2002
1486 Added HANGUP, a message send if one side terminates the connection.
1487 Sending the message is optional, but it is nicer to have it. Also
1488 started on gnunet-check, a tool to check database consistency.
1490 Thu Jun 20 03:11:01 EST 2002
1491 Improved handling of collisions in the hashes in the
1492 lookup module (uses no longer a linear scan on the
1493 collisions file but a hashtable for the collisions!).
1495 Tue Jun 18 20:29:38 EST 2002
1496 Released GNUnet 0.4.2.
1498 Tue Jun 18 20:20:55 EST 2002
1499 Fixed bugs in blacklisting IPs. Added feature to allow specification
1500 which networks are trusted enough to connect to the trusted TCP
1501 port (TCP/2086 no longer needs to be firewalled!).
1503 Tue Jun 18 02:35:53 EST 2002
1504 Fixed problems with ttl (negative TTL queries were forwarded),
1505 also better flushing of buffers and fewer SKEY exchanges due to
1506 a now working implementation of the blacklist. A DNS lookup for
1507 the NAT-box-IP configuration was also added.
1509 Sun Jun 16 04:11:01 EST 2002
1510 Added code to provide statistics (gnunet-stats).
1513 Sun Jun 9 22:56:02 EST 2002
1514 Released GNUnet 0.4.1.
1516 Sat Jun 8 05:00:36 EST 2002
1517 Several small bugfixes (list of shared files not updated on
1518 insertion, highest-bit of trust not interpreted as dirty,
1519 rpm dependency on libextractor added.
1520 Also many improvments to the build process.
1522 Wed Jun 5 17:01:58 EST 2002
1523 Made sure that HELOs don't trigger Ping-Pong if we don't
1524 really learn anything new.
1526 Tue Jun 4 17:17:45 EST 2002
1527 The port numbers were not in network-byte order. Fixing
1528 this is trivial, but it breaks compatibility with 0.4.0.
1529 Thanks to Rick Kennell for reporting the endianess issue.
1531 Mon Jun 3 20:35:47 EST 2002
1532 Fixed bug with CRC not endian-converted in gnunet-gtk.
1533 Added mimetype and filename support to gnunet-gtk.
1535 Sun Jun 2 03:52:18 EST 2002
1538 Sat Jun 1 22:13:12 EST 2002
1539 Added three-way handshake for SKEY exchange. Not tested.
1541 Sat Jun 1 16:55:18 EST 2002
1542 Fixed potential DDoS problem where malicious hosts could
1543 trick GNUnet servers to repeatedly probe a non-partitipating host
1544 trying to establish a connection. I wonder how many other
1545 p2p systems are vulnerable. (Fix: after HELO, play PING-PONG).
1546 The endianess issues should be fixed throughout the system, but
1547 not tested on a real machine so far.
1549 Sat May 25 15:55:11 EST 2002
1550 Moved to new CVS server. First changes towards 0.4.0:
1552 * insert/index via TCP
1553 * bugfixes (mostly performance)
1555 Sat May 18 16:00:06 EST 2002
1556 Added mimetype, filename and version number to RootNodes
1557 (mostly incompatible change!). Added automatic generic keyword
1558 and mime-type extraction via libextractor to gnunet-insert.
1560 Tue May 14 23:59:40 EST 2002
1561 New storage database is starting to look good. We can now store
1562 the data in a directory (one file per block), a gdbm database,
1563 and presumably (not tested) in a tdb database.
1565 Sat May 11 22:10:56 EST 2002
1566 Completed, deployed and tested the new TCPIO code. This changes
1567 the gnunetd-client protocol. Essentially, we convert the TCP stream
1568 into records with a length and type header. This should allow us
1569 to fix bug #212 and add other features in the future. The current
1570 change is really only changing the core TCP code and not anything
1571 around it. We should deploy some demultiplexing code later.
1573 Tue May 7 20:56:40 EST 2002
1574 Added IP blacklisting (for virtual private networks).
1576 Sat May 4 14:08:23 EST 2002
1577 Fixed bug with bad insertion of files smaller than 1k.
1579 Fri May 3 23:25:16 EST 2002
1580 Added IP change detection (useful for dialup) [bug #272].
1581 Added code to ensure that a HELO is life instantly
1582 after receiving it, fixing the 'unknown host,
1583 refusing SKEY problem' (bug #273). Other minor
1584 bugfixes (#274, #283).
1586 Sun Apr 14 22:36:03 EST 2002
1587 Added option to allow NAT boxes not to exchange
1588 foreign HELOs and thus expose the private
1589 network. Fixed bug that all other hosts should
1590 in fact do this exchange.
1592 Sat Apr 13 11:02:59 EST 2002
1593 Make sure that files are readable before returning TRUE
1596 Fri Apr 12 03:01:06 EST 2002
1597 Added padding messages with random if maximum
1598 packet size is not reached. All encrypted
1599 packets now look absolutely uniform in size
1600 for a non-participating adversary (before,
1601 a host that had few queries may have sent packets
1602 that were less than the maximum size).
1604 Thu Apr 11 01:43:28 EST 2002
1605 Added sequence numbers to protocol to defend
1606 against replay attacks (bug #185).
1608 Wed Apr 10 02:07:25 EST 2002
1609 Bugfix gnunet-insert-mp3 (endless loop).
1610 Updated documentation.
1612 Mon Apr 8 00:07:15 EST 2002
1613 Fixed endless-loop bug when activemigration is turned
1614 on (during startup).
1616 Fri Apr 5 02:03:13 EST 2002
1619 Fri Apr 5 00:33:42 EST 2002
1620 gnunet-gtk, the gtk+ based GUI is now functional and
1621 has all the features of gnunet-search and gnunet-download,
1622 including boolean queries. In fact, it is a bit better than
1623 gnunet-download as it shows the progress of the download.
1624 The manpage for gnunet-gtk was updated. Minor bugfixes.
1626 Mon Mar 25 02:59:13 EST 2002
1627 Changed writeFile to use a fourth parameter which is the
1628 desired permissions for the file. Files in data/hosts
1629 are now world-readable. Created man pages
1631 Mon Mar 18 17:56:52 EST 2002
1634 Sun Mar 17 10:47:51 EST 2002
1635 Got rid of far too frequent key exchange attempts.
1636 Added expiration for very-long-dead host keys. Stopped
1637 forwarding of expired HELOs (receiver drops anyway).
1639 Wed Mar 14 05:46:20 EST 2002
1640 Fixed some file location inconsistencies. All files are
1641 now in $HOME/GNUnet. RPM installation points to /var/GNUnet
1642 and the config file is ~/GNUnet/gnunet.conf
1643 Finished port to FreeBSD. This included mostly changes
1644 to src/util/statuscalls.c, but also several changes to
1645 the build system. Added a stat() call in the server code
1646 to make sure the config file exists before sending it to
1647 the OpenSSL conf code. Added getopt to source to fix
1648 portability issues. Changed FREEBSD defs to SOMEBSD, also
1649 changed in configure.in. Compiles and works on at least
1650 FreeBSD 4.5 and OpenBSD 3.0
1652 Wed Mar 6 23:15:36 EST 2002
1653 Added code for 'fast scan' of the database for
1654 content to discard (should be called partial
1655 scan). This improves the startup-time dramatically.
1656 Every source file got the GNU header.
1658 Tue Mar 5 22:42:36 EST 2002
1659 Added option for *not* participating in content
1660 migration. Added timeout option to gnunet-search.
1661 gnunetd now periodically (1h) scans for new content,
1662 no restarting required.
1664 Mon Mar 4 23:21:51 EST 2002
1665 Optimized routing and content migration. Distance
1666 of the hash to the identity of the local host is
1667 now taken into account for routing. Hosts give
1668 higher priority to content that is close to their
1669 identity (priority towards keeping it). If the
1670 network grows, this should significantly improve
1671 the performance. Also, the choice of the hosts
1672 for routing is now based on proximity (to the
1673 query), the activity level of the host and its
1676 Sun Mar 3 00:14:58 EST 2002
1677 Implemented binary queries ("AND") for gnunet-search.
1678 Made sure that content is not downloaded again if
1679 already present (if there is other content, we
1680 overwrite). Fixed bug in gnunet-download
1681 (uninitialzied time-to-live).
1683 Sat Mar 2 01:57:37 EST 2002
1684 Finished porting the download-code to C. Now files can
1685 be downloaded in using shell commands. No GUI though.
1686 Released GNUnet v0.3.1.
1688 Wed Feb 20 23:47:19 EST 2002
1689 Big CVS moving operation.

1692 Started migration to GNUnet.
1694 Sun Feb 3 01:20:37 EST 2002
1695 Extracted crc32 method from zlib and put only that method into
1696 primitives. Reduces our memory footprint (if nobody else uses
1697 zlib) and we no longer depend no that library (always good).
1699 Sat Feb 2 22:56:32 EST 2002
1700 Building final tarball for v0.3.0.
1702 Wed Jan 30 23:41:04 EST 2002
1703 Created mp32gnet, a tool to automaticall index mp3 files
1704 using information from the mp3 header as keywords (title,
1705 artist, album, comments). The mp3 parsing code comes from
1706 the GPL tool mp3info.
1708 Tue Jan 29 17:36:48 EST 2002
1709 Fixed bug with files that were not closed under certain
1710 circumstances and lead to an exhaustion of the number of
1711 concurrently open files.
1713 Mon Jan 21 23:34:44 EST 2002
1714 Bumping version numbers to v0.3.0 (not yet released, needs some
1715 more testing to be on the safe side).
1717 Sun Jan 20 02:09:06 EST 2002
1718 Content gathering now discards the least important
1719 content in favour of new, more important content (if
1720 there is not space for all content). The cron
1721 management is now used everywhere. The rpm, the init-script
1722 and the gproxy shell script have been revised.
1724 Sun Jan 13 23:17:58 EST 2002
1725 Created cron management, replacing old control
1726 thread (allows for better timing of events).
1727 EvaluateContent now gets the priority of the
1728 query that the content had.
1730 Sun Jan 13 00:54:56 EST 2002
1731 Improved choice in number of hosts to forward
1732 queries to (now dynamic, depending on priority, etc.)
1733 Removed many, many allocations in print statements
1734 which also caused memory leaks if active (see
1736 Added CRC checking of the root node in GProxy. Fixed
1737 problem with CRC in IBlocks for large files.
1738 Added dialog to GProxy to choose where to save the file.
1740 Sat Jan 5 14:25:31 EST 2002
1741 Optimized routing table. Routing table is now a hashtable
1742 (collisions are handled by droping either the former or the
1743 new entry). Each bucket has it's own lock, the global
1744 semaphore is gone. The table has many more entries (we can
1745 afford that now that there is no longer a linear search).
1747 Wed Dec 26 19:30:41 CET 2001
1750 Tue Dec 25 21:24:18 CET 2001
1751 Fixed TTL errors that made queries loop. Added host-evaluation
1752 to policy (drop packets from untrusted hosts under load). Found that CRC-errors
1753 are related to policy decisions ("drop"), cosmetic fix.
1755 Sun Nov 25 08:10:52 EST 2001
1756 Added triple-hash functionality and on-demand encoding (lookup.c).
1758 Sat Nov 24 07:46:10 EST 2001
1759 Added randomized choice of hosts for the hosttable.
1761 Thu Nov 22 04:57:57 EST 2001
1762 Fixed another bunch of big bugs, tested, seems to work smoothly. Creating V0.1.0.
1764 Mon Nov 19 01:22:42 EST 2001:
1765 Fixed biggest (show-stopper) bugs. Creating V0.0.3
1767 Fri Oct 26 02:20:00 EST 2001:
1768 Created ChangeLog. Report important changes here,
1769 report small changes to CVS only.
