2 Releasing GNUnet 0.9.0pre3. Instead of listing all that has
3 changed, here is the short list of what is known NOT to work,
4 in order of minor flaws to major issues, by module:
6 * FS still has a few missing features, but largely works
7 * TRANSPORT ATS is not used for actual bandwidth assignment,
8 important options to make it truly useful are still missing
9 * TESTING does not support incremental HELLO changes,
10 code has known shutdown issues (can crash)
11 * VPN is experimental, but has been shown to work to some degree
12 * MESH does not work (mock API emulates for VPN)
13 * TRANSPORT-WLAN is experimental
14 * TRANSPORT-HTTP is experimental, has known bugs
15 * TRANSPORT-DV is experimental, has known bugs, protocol may still change
16 * CHAT is experimental, has known bugs and was not reviewed yet
18 With this release we will finally start with
19 a detailed accounting of changes in the ChangeLog.
21 Thu Dec 23 23:33:05 CET 2010
22 Releasing GNUnet 0.9.0pre2.
24 Thu Oct 7 20:51:05 CEST 2010
25 Removed dependency on GNU MP (GMP). The code now uses the libgcrypt MPI
28 Sat Jul 3 20:47:45 CEST 2010
29 Releasing GNUnet 0.9.0pre1.
31 Wed Jun 23 16:34:38 CEST 2010
32 Added support for systemd-compatible passing of listen-sockets
33 by ARM to services as well as systemd compatibility for gnunet-service-arm
34 itself. At least for non-MINGW systems this should work.
36 Sat Jun 5 18:08:39 CEST 2010
37 Added support for UNIX domain sockets, code also defaults to
40 Sun May 2 13:49:10 CEST 2010
41 Fixed problem with platform-dependence of format for IP addresses
42 in HELLOs for TCP and UDP transport.
43 Reduced address length field in HELLOs to 16 bit (was 32 bit).
44 These changes break transport compatibility.
46 Fri Apr 16 18:19:05 CEST 2010
47 Nearly complete rewrite and new overall architecture. Many
48 features are still missing, but basic system seems to be
49 working again. Maybe time to again track major changes
50 in the ChangeLog. Releasing 0.9.0pre0.
53 Sun Feb 1 19:51:40 MST 2009
54 Fixed Mantis #1429 (struct padding could cause sizeof
55 to be different on AMD64, using gcc-ism "packed" to
58 Sun Feb 1 00:37:16 MST 2009

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

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

331 Implemented heuristic for better packing of gnunet-directories.
333 Sun Mar 25 13:47:08 MDT 2007

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

466 Added conversion of ECRS error messages to FSUI
467 error event messages.
469 Sun Nov 19 00:20:14 MST 2006

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

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

523 Sat May 6 00:17:59 PDT 2006
524 Releasing GNUnet 0.7.0d.
526 Fri May 5 01:33:42 PDT 2006

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

589 Fixed undersynchronization that may result in segv if pending
590 download was cancelled.
592 Mon Aug 22 00:37:11 PDT 2005
593 Made "UPDATE" use a prepared statement in MySQL datastore.
595 Sun Aug 21 23:08:57 PDT 2005
596 Fixed bugs causing unnecessary long delays for downloads from
597 loopback. Also now bypassing routing table for loopback download
598 (faster, avoids pollution of the routing table when not needed).
600 Sun Aug 21 18:42:14 PDT 2005
601 Fixed memory leak in gnunet-insert -R. Improved memory utilization
602 by SQlite dramatically (see discussion on gnunet-developers).
604 Sat Aug 20 21:04:28 PDT 2005
605 Fixed (rare) segmentation fault in insertion code.
607 Sat Aug 20 19:31:10 PDT 2005
608 Yet another tiny bug -- but one that hangs gnunetd; fixed in pre6a.
610 Sat Aug 20 13:51:01 PDT 2005
613 Sat Aug 20 12:51:27 PDT 2005
614 Changed sqlite data format to avoid encoding-decoding
615 (breaks compatibility with previous datastores, in particular
616 since conversion code is NOT provided).
617 The page size was also increased, rendering the database files
620 Thu Aug 18 21:18:28 PDT 2005
621 Made quotations match GNU standards.
623 Wed Aug 17 20:05:19 PDT 2005
624 Fixed bug that would prevent P2P messages from being
625 transmitted under certain (common) circumstances.
627 Mon Aug 15 00:08:47 PDT 2005
628 Bugfest. Fixed various bugs in MySQL, fragmentation,
629 core and fs (see Mantis for more details).
631 Mon Jul 18 01:03:05 CEST 2005
632 Alpha-rename fest. Releasing 0.7.0pre5.
634 Sun Jul 17 13:49:40 CEST 2005
635 Fixed problems with struct alignment on 64-bit
636 AMDs. Fixed recently introduced memory leak.
637 Fixed various compiler warnings.
639 Sat Jul 16 23:55:31 CEST 2005
640 Fixed various minor problems with platforms
641 without gettext/NLS support and for 64-bit size_ts.
642 Also fixed a couple of other compiler warnings.
643 Cleaned up connection.c code.
645 Mon Jul 11 14:41:18 CEST 2005
646 Fixed tiny memory leak in http_bootstrap.
648 Mon Jul 11 02:22:24 CEST 2005
649 Fixed long-standing problems in statuscalls wrt
650 network load estimates, leading to too-high bandwidth
651 consumption on average. Fixed minor memory leaks.
652 Fixed far too often session-key exchange (was done
653 also for sessions that were already up).
655 Thu Jul 7 15:22:21 CEST 2005
656 Fixed bug in identity, missing ntohs for protocol ID.
657 Fixed bug in topology, wrong calculation of saturation.
659 Wed Jul 6 22:34:30 CEST 2005
660 Fixed bugs in core with respect to possible infinite
661 recursion caused by fragmentation callbacks. Also
662 differenciated between fatal transport sends and
663 transient transport sends. Cleanup of some APIs.
665 Sat Jul 2 17:21:07 CEST 2005
666 Fixed bugs in gnunet-pseudonym (listing of namespaces),
667 FSUI (double-free for namespace creation), cleaned up
668 APIs and implemented clearing of completed downloads
669 (FSUI). Releasing 0.7.0pre4.
671 Fri Jul 1 15:08:42 CEST 2005
672 Added statistics for transports and other connection-
673 related functions. Prevented core from dropping
674 messages just because transport is (temporarily)
675 blocked. Made transport selection in identity random
676 again where necessary.
678 Thu Jun 30 20:05:15 CEST 2005
679 Added cache for KBlocks (can speed up insertion speed
680 for recursive inserts quite a bit).
682 Thu Jun 30 13:52:17 CEST 2005
683 Enabled IPv6 by default. Fixed various minor bugs.
685 Tue Jun 28 13:41:58 UTC 2005
686 Fixed various open FIXMEs, including error handling,
687 bad performance and some memory leaks (gnunet-tools
688 only, not in gnunetd).
690 Mon Jun 27 17:21:09 CEST 2005
691 Fixed double-free segfault.
692 Fixed problem with session timeout not happening.
693 Fixed issue with too lazy slot reclaim for reconnect.
694 Made reconnect scanning more incremental (1/10th of
695 the work every 500ms instead of full work every 5s).
696 Fixed memory leak in advertisement processing.
698 Sun Jun 26 18:21:17 CEST 2005
699 Plenty of bugfixes everywhere, gnunet-setup works
700 now. Releasing 0.7.0pre3.
702 Sat Jun 11 11:25:24 EST 2005
703 Fixed various problems with recursive upload
704 (thread stack size too small, wrong filenames
705 passed around, wrong list of filenames updated).
707 Sat Apr 2 01:54:23 EST 2005
708 Various bugfixes, some of them critical (segfaults,
709 protocol errors (resulting in failures to connect),
710 old version of configuration file would be
711 generated if configuration was missing,
712 gnunet-insert would not properly work with multiple
713 keywords (-k and -K options)). Releasing 0.7.0pre2.
715 Thu Mar 31 21:38:06 EST 2005
718 Tue Mar 8 14:45:55 EST 2005
719 OpenSSL cannot fully support SHA-512. Eliminated as an
720 option (not necessary, GPL incompatible, trouble, work
721 to maintain -- in summary: not worth it).
723 Sat Mar 5 00:33:51 EST 2005
724 Changing hash algorithm to SHA-512.
725 Changing symcipher algorithm to AES-256.
727 Sun Feb 27 21:59:31 EST 2005
728 All unit testcases pass. Releasing 0.7.0pre0.
730 Sat Feb 12 17:35:08 EST 2005
731 Fixed mysql-test. Changed MySQL to use prepared statements,
732 avoids conversion (mysql_escape_string) and is faster on the
735 Wed Dec 15 20:47:40 EST 2004
736 Removed support for password encryption of namespace keys.
737 Hardly used and adds hardly any security. Encrypt /home if
738 you need this, would be more effective anyway.
740 Fri Nov 26 06:27:12 EST 2004
741 Sessionkey exchange works now, at least with OpenSSL. There
742 seems to be some quirk in some version of libcrypt with
743 respect to RSA encryption. Anyway, it is a heisenbug (sometimes
744 RSA decryption does not result in what was originally
745 encrypted), but I have the feeling this problem existed
746 already in 0.6.5 -- and it is now detected and does not
749 Tue Nov 23 02:35:50 EST 2004
750 The CVS may look like it's compiling, but that's just because
751 most of the service modules are not even attempted.
752 And without those, nothing will work. But in good news,
753 util, transport and server do compile now.
755 Sun Nov 21 03:53:22 EST 2004
756 Starting to make incompatible changes. Once this is commited
757 to CVS (which will only happen once at least some parts compile
758 again), this version will no longer be compatible with any
759 previously released version of GNUnet (and highly experimental).
760 Do not yet use the new code on-line, do not expect it to work
763 Sun Nov 14 16:49:02 EST 2004
764 Debugged collections, seems to work (not that it looks pretty,
765 but it basically works, the rest is UI work). Fixed deadlock
766 in gnunet-gtk logging. Releasing GNUnet 0.6.5.
768 Thu Nov 4 09:04:48 EST 2004
769 Added (highly experimental) support for collections.
771 Sat Sep 25 22:29:48 EST 2004
772 Releasing GNUnet 0.6.4a.
774 Sun Sep 19 23:39:04 EST 2004
775 Various code cleanups and minor bugfixes.
777 Sun Aug 29 15:11:28 IST 2004
778 Releasing GNUnet 0.6.4.
780 Tue Aug 24 20:59:14 IST 2004
781 Significant enhancements to namespaces. A namespace can
782 now be annotated with meta-data at the time that it is
785 Sat Aug 21 01:00:06 IST 2004
786 Adding GNU gettext support to configure.
788 Thu Aug 19 01:26:55 IST 2004
789 Migrating gnunet-gtk to GTK 2.0 (tested with 2.4).
791 Mon Aug 16 00:30:59 IST 2004
792 Removed gcry. Added dependency on GNU MP library (libgmp)
795 Tue Aug 3 17:57:43 IST 2004
796 Fixed bugs in gnunet-update. Fixed segfault in AFS startup.
797 Fixed warnings in gnunet-peer-info/gnunetd. Fixed packaging
798 error (not all of util/gcry included in distribution).
799 Releasing GNUnet 0.6.3a.
801 Mon Aug 2 20:06:07 IST 2004
802 Releasing GNUnet 0.6.3.
804 Sun Aug 1 01:31:19 IST 2004
805 Changed most places from HexName to the new, shorter EncName.
806 Pushed URIs for namespaces and keyword searches into more
807 widespread use. Replaced all occurences of sprintf with
808 SNPRINTF (to obtain extra bounds check).
810 Sun Jul 11 13:54:01 IST 2004
811 Moved testcases for libgnunet_util to util/ directory.
812 Made DB testcases in afs/module/ run for each available
813 database and not just the one configured in /etc/gnunet.conf.
815 Fri Jun 25 21:05:59 IST 2004
816 Releasing GNUnet 0.6.2b (resolves various minor bugs).
818 Wed May 5 17:34:39 EST 2004
819 Releasing GNUnet 0.6.2a (resolves libgcrypt and packageing
820 issues, improved gtk-statistics, other minor bugfixes).
822 Fri Apr 30 21:36:23 EST 2004
823 Fixed synchronization problem in cron (only relevant for
824 parallel downloading). Releasing GNUnet 0.6.2.
826 Mon Apr 26 21:13:45 EST 2004
827 Added support to gnunet-check to convert file index database
828 to new design. Removed support for pre 0.6.1b bloomfilter
829 conversion (would have been too messy to support both).
830 Added old-version check to gnunetd startup to make updates
831 more systematic in the future (not perfect, though).
833 Mon Apr 26 19:27:29 EST 2004
834 Recursive insertion of directories with gnunet-gtk
835 now works including the progress bar.
837 Sun Apr 25 18:24:55 EST 2004
838 Global changes to fix bug #698. The fix is still
839 incomplete with respect to pthread.h specific structs.
841 Sun Apr 25 15:20:29 EST 2004
842 Fixed compile error in IPv6 transports.
844 Fri Apr 23 23:38:01 EST 2004
845 Added recursive insertion of directories to gnunet-gtk.
846 Progress-bar does not work yet, also libextractor is
847 always used (no option to turn it off).
849 Fri Apr 23 21:49:18 EST 2004
850 Removed need to specify _protocol in configuration file
853 Wed Apr 21 23:32:36 EST 2004
854 Added code to bound priority used by clients by twice the
855 average priority of requests from other peers that are
856 routed at the moment. That prevents clients from exposing
857 themselves with excessively high priorities (and also
858 avoids giving too much credit/trust needlessly).
860 Tue Apr 20 22:27:19 EST 2004
861 Added possibility of using a link instead of making a copy
862 if gnunetd and the insert-client both run on the same machine.
864 Tue Apr 20 00:00:58 EST 2004
865 Added network transparency for indexing files (by copying
866 them to a GNUnet(d) specific directory). This breaks
867 unindexing (for files indexed with previous versions) and
868 forces the user to make a copy of the file. In the near
869 future we should resolve this problem by allowing the use
872 Sun Apr 18 17:24:34 EST 2004
873 Adding recursive, parallel download of directories to
876 Sun Apr 18 01:57:32 EST 2004
877 gnunet-transport-check can now be used to check
878 external connectivity (with other peers).
880 Sat Apr 17 17:46:19 EST 2004
881 Reduced memory consuption for AFS insertion and
884 Sat Apr 10 21:17:46 EST 2004
885 Implemented statistics-plot in gnunet-gtk based on
886 gnome-system-monitor code.
888 Fri Apr 9 22:01:51 EST 2004
889 Added support for libextractor > 0.2.7.
891 Fri Apr 9 0:29:20 EST 2004
892 Completed --help conversion.
894 Wed Mar 31 15:40:51 EST 2004
897 Tue Mar 30 22:42:13 EST 2004
898 Integrated gnunet-pseudonym-create, -delete and -list into
899 gnunet-pseudonym as well as gnunet-directory-list, -emptydb
900 and -print into gnunet-directory.
902 Tue Mar 2 10:46:01 EST 2004
903 Fixing bug preventing download for indexed files <= 1k.
905 Sat Feb 28 03:43:34 EST 2004
908 Sat Feb 21 06:16:47 EST 2004
909 Modified requestmanager to improve performance at the end of the
912 Thu Feb 19 00:48:33 EST 2004
913 Fixed integer underflow possibly causing slow download performance.
915 Sun Feb 15 15:17:05 EST 2004
916 Fixed weak key failures with libgcrypt.
918 Sun Feb 15 13:14:44 EST 2004
919 New routing code (untested) commited.
921 Sun Feb 15 11:58:10 EST 2004
922 Fixing problem with 64-bit size_t on alpha (#655).
924 Sat Jan 31 04:32:33 EST 2004
927 Fri Jan 23 00:00:09 EST 2004
928 Fixed indexed content being overwritten by migrated content
930 Thu Jan 22 19:27:33 EST 2004
931 Fixed integer-overflow problems in statuscalls.
932 Fixed missing ttl/priority adjustment for NS-Queries.
933 Fixed bug in routing that would let very old queries survive.
935 Thu Jan 15 23:14:54 EST 2004
936 Fixed size of super-bloomfilter (was factor of 32 to small).
937 Fixed option -r of gnunet-check (would not increment bloom filters
938 to appropriate value).
940 Wed Dec 31 17:07:40 EST 2003
941 Fixed various routing and bandwidth allocation problems.
944 Wed Dec 24 00:00:00 EST 2003
947 Fri Dec 19 00:57:29 EST 2003
948 NAT transport passes tests.
950 Sat Dec 13 00:16:41 EST 2003
953 Thu Oct 16 19:20:29 EST 2003
954 Added greedy knapsack heuristic for use by CPU-overloaded
957 Mon Oct 13 22:36:45 EST 2003
958 Improved gnunet-gtk code that forks of gnunetd (some extra checking,
959 use fork-exec instead of system(), pass configuration file as
962 Sun Oct 12 03:42:55 EST 2003
963 Split bandwidth montoring into up and downstream.
964 Why stop sending replies merely because we *receive* traffic!?
965 Also reduced frequency of HELO exchange.
966 Added more statistics (traffic by type).
968 Fri Oct 10 02:05:13 EST 2003
969 Fixed bug that wasted a lot of CPU time.
970 Better CPU usage control by making knapsack
971 solving (frequency and problem size) dependent
974 Thu Oct 9 14:29:35 EST 2003
977 Sun Oct 5 21:35:23 EST 2003
978 GNUnet 0.6.0 released.
980 Sat Oct 4 12:54:55 EST 2003
981 Fixed bug in timer code (discovered in testcase).
982 Added extensive testcases for platform dependent code.
984 Fri Sep 19 01:38:00 EST 2003
985 Added code to allow namespace queries to return multiple
986 results. Updates are now displayed in separate tabs.
988 Wed Sep 17 23:54:15 EST 2003
989 Migrated libgcrypt code in util to comply with
990 libgcrypt 1.1.43 (and it passes the tests just fine)
992 Wed Sep 17 22:59:16 EST 2003
993 Fixed problems with updates in namespaces in the GTK code.
994 Added boolean search capability (x AND y) to GTK search.
995 Made namespace search frequency respect TTL delays.
997 Thu Aug 21 19:42:57 EST 2003
998 GNUnet 0.5.5 released.
1000 Tue Aug 12 20:48:39 EST 2003
1001 Support for namespaces with updates is there,
1002 but requires testing.
1004 Sun Jul 27 14:48:19 EST 2003
1005 Added download summary window to gnunet-gtk.
1007 Fri Jul 25 14:15:37 CET 2003
1008 Unioned gnunet-insert-multi and gnunet-insert-sblock
1011 Thu Jun 26 23:22:12 EST 2003
1012 Added draft support for directories.
1014 Thu Jun 26 23:21:41 EST 2003
1015 GNUnet 0.5.4a released
1017 Sat Jun 14 19:21:41 EST 2003
1018 Added support for HTTP-PROXY to download the hostlist.
1020 Wed May 29 01:13:15 EST 2003
1021 Fixing some ugly bugs in connection.c that caused
1022 permanent connection-drop and connection-establish
1023 cycles (every 5 minutes).
1025 Sat May 24 03:12:42 EST 2003
1026 Migrated subset of libgcrypt into GNUnet tree to use
1027 it instead of OpenSSL or libgcrypt. RSA in the new
1028 code is broken at the moment.
1030 Sun May 18 04:10:25 EST 2003
1031 GNUnet 0.5.4 released.
1033 Sat May 10 21:39:35 EST 2003
1034 Only download hostlist after a while if we were
1035 not able to connect (to reduce load on hostlist
1038 Fri May 2 23:20:15 EST 2003
1039 Added code to handle massive collisions in datastore
1040 (thousands of files under the same keyword).
1042 Sun Apr 27 23:52:12 EST 2003
1043 GNUnet 0.5.3 released.
1045 Wed Apr 23 03:20:21 EST 2003
1046 Build system cleanup, location of mysql, gdbm, tdb and
1047 db can now be specified.
1049 Mon Apr 21 01:54:24 EST 2003
1050 Made random content selection with pIdx faster
1051 (do not read entire pidx files) and fully random
1052 (added code to weigh pidx files by number of entries).
1054 Sun Apr 20 23:25:45 EST 2003
1055 Fixed double-free in TCP transport code (seems to have
1056 only had a real chance to occur under BSD in practice).
1058 Sat Apr 19 14:42:37 EST 2003
1059 Replaced use of dlopen for plugins with the more
1060 portable ltdl from libtool.
1062 Thu Apr 17 20:36:42 EST 2003
1063 Added synchronization to pIdx, also use truncate
1064 to remove last n entries instead of re-writing the
1065 entire file (much, much faster).
1067 Mon Apr 7 00:00:07 EST 2003
1068 Implemented gnunet-delete.
1070 Sat Apr 5 15:55:31 EST 2003
1071 Made directory database use 256 sub-directories
1072 (should increase speed a lot, with the new DB
1073 manager, this will result in at most 2048
1074 files per directory).
1076 Mon Mar 31 16:51:24 EST 2003
1077 gnunet-convert and gnunet-check compile again
1078 with the new DB code.
1080 Sun Mar 30 13:14:52 CET 2003
1081 Added BSD DB (libdb) support.
1083 Sun Mar 23 04:04:38 EST 2003
1084 Big gnunet-gtk cleanup.
1086 Tue Mar 18 01:52:18 EST 2003
1089 Sun Mar 16 20:24:24 EST 2003
1090 Caching of RSA signatures for HELOs reduced CPU
1091 usage dramatically, from an average of 31% to less
1092 than 5% on my machine.
1094 Sun Mar 16 01:21:16 EST 2003
1095 Fixed locking problem and problem with TCP transport
1096 (bad set of sockets in select).
1098 Sat Mar 15 03:02:42 EST 2003
1099 Fixed bug that copied wrong content (garbage) into
1100 replies for other peers. This one was introduced
1101 briefly before 0.5.2. Argh.
1103 Fri Feb 28 00:23:02 EST 2003
1104 Fixed segfault in gnunet-gtk when closing search
1107 Thu Feb 27 16:23:20 EST 2003
1108 Releasing GNUnet 0.5.2.
1110 Mon Feb 24 00:28:52 EST 2003
1111 Cleaning up the AFS routing code, also some tweaks
1112 to improve anonymity against an active attacker.
1114 Thu Feb 20 23:51:30 EST 2003
1115 gnunet-tracekit works now nicely (and with dot).
1116 Also, GNUnet now attempts to locate a configuration
1117 file in /etc/gnunet.conf if ~/.gnunet/gnunet.conf
1118 does not exist (and nothing is specified on the
1121 Wed Feb 12 23:21:44 EST 2003
1122 Fixed deadlock between pingpong and connection
1125 Tue Feb 4 13:22:09 EST 2003
1126 Releasing GNUnet 0.5.1(a).
1128 Tue Feb 4 04:05:58 EST 2003
1129 RSA encryption of OpenSSL has been changed to pure
1130 PKCS #1 to achieve compatibility with libgcrypt.
1132 Mon Feb 3 18:46:54 EST 2003
1133 RSA signature encoding has been changed from raw
1134 to PKCS #1 compatible encoding. This should help
1135 making the migration to libgcrypt easier in the
1136 future. RSA & libgcrypt are still not friends,
1137 but the GNUnet code should be mostly there.
1139 Fri Jan 31 10:40:01 EST 2003
1140 gnunet-peer-info tool was added. This tool can
1141 prints information about all known peers and may
1142 be useful for diagnostics.
1144 Mon Jan 20 17:54:51 EST 2003
1145 A large number of memory leaks got fixed thanks
1146 to the new automated scripts to find them.
1148 Thu Jan 16 00:49:20 EST 2003
1149 Nearly finished removing dependencies on OpenSSL
1150 (using libgcrypt instead), $FOO-expansion in
1151 configuration parsing and RSA (public key crypto)
1152 are the only missing pieces.
1154 Mon Jan 13 01:53:45 EST 2003
1155 Fixed deadlock in gnunetd (would stop processing
1158 Sun Dec 27 13:34:11 CET 2002
1159 Fixed segmentation fault that occured when number
1160 of known peers goes over 128.
1162 Sat Dec 21 16:27:11 CET 2002
1163 Releasing GNUnet 0.5.0.
1165 Sat Dec 14 03:47:05 CET 2002
1166 Bugfixes over bugfixes. Various memory leaks
1167 from gnunetd to gnunet-download, problems
1168 with bloomfilters and gnunet-check, enforcing
1169 storage limitations set by the user, fixes
1170 in the UDP, TCP and SMTP transports;
1171 better thread termination (avoid asynchronous
1172 cancellation). Not to mention the new
1173 tools gnunet-transport-check and gnunet-tbench
1174 for the evaulation of correctness and performance
1175 of the transport services.
1177 Wed Nov 6 22:49:24 EST 2002
1178 Added load smoothing for network and CPU load
1179 such that we quickly adapt to increasing load,
1180 but slowly reduce the (effective) load value
1181 used in the policy if the load drops. This should
1182 help avoiding 0-1 policies where we always jump
1183 up and down between 100% load and no load, letting
1184 in one period all traffic through and in the next
1187 Wed Nov 6 00:31:39 EST 2002
1188 Added port==0 for UDP and TCP transport as an
1189 option to indicate that the transport is to be
1190 used only to establish connections to other
1191 peers but not as a server-socket (that is,
1192 if the port is 0, other GNUnet peers can not
1193 connect to the local node's UDP or TCP port,
1194 but the local node can still use UDP
1195 (unidirectional) or TCP (even bi-directional)
1196 to talk to other peers. This is useful if a
1197 node is behind a NAT box and can not receive
1198 inbound traffic but is able to send messages to
1199 other peers (and in the case of TCP even receive
1200 messages if the local peer initiated the
1201 bi-directional connection). Currently, a peer
1202 must always provide at least one transport under
1203 which the peer can be "actively" reached since
1204 otherwise other peers will not keep the public
1205 key of that peer and thus not be able to
1206 complete the session key exchange. For NAT-box
1207 peers, SMTP might be a viable choice for that
1210 Fri Oct 11 02:16:42 EST 2002
1211 Added bloomfilter interface and calls to the BF from
1212 the AFS service implementation. Missing for working
1213 bloomfilter are calls from gnunet-insert to update
1214 the bloom-filter (top-CHK and super-queries) and the
1215 actual bloom-filter implementation.
1217 Tue Oct 8 20:35:45 EST 2002
1218 TCP transport now works with only one thread (using
1219 select) instead of one thread per peer-connection.
1221 Fri Sep 27 02:24:52 EST 2002
1222 New content encoding (still only 1k blocks, but with
1223 CHK style IBocks and GBlocks for aggressive content
1224 migration) now seems to work.
1226 Mon Sep 16 01:57:55 EST 2002
1227 Implemented gnunet-chat, a demo-application for
1228 how to develop p2p applications on top of GNUnet.
1230 Sun Sep 15 22:48:28 EST 2002
1231 Fixing (long standing) problem with segfaults under BSD
1232 due to stack overflow in threads.
1234 Sun Sep 15 02:04:52 EST 2002
1235 TCP transport layer implementation seems to work now.
1236 gnunet.conf is now documented on the web. HELO exchange
1237 is fixed, so is the CS-connection whitelisting.
1239 Fri Sep 13 00:51:01 EST 2002
1240 Update on the progress towards 0.4.9. What is missing?
1241 * new content encoding to facilitate:
1243 - discriminated routing (downloads vs. searches)
1244 - variable blocksize (?)
1245 - self-synchronizing stream encoding (?)
1246 * additional transport layers (SMTP, TCP, HTTP)
1247 * demo application (chat) for how to use the API
1248 * documentation on new gnunet.conf
1250 - Igor reports, HELO exchange is broken
1251 - David reports, CS-connection whitelisting is broken
1252 - rpm.spec is outdated (add GNUnet's dynamic libraries)
1254 What has been resolved so far:
1256 * transport and application layer have been abstracted
1257 * dynamic loading of transports and applications is
1259 * routing much faster since slots are freed earlier
1260 * querymanager is more intelligent in where to send
1261 queries (presumably, not tested)
1264 * configuration can store options from commandline
1265 * statistics is totally dynamic and can be extended
1266 * connection buffer does callbacks on applications to
1267 fill buffers with queries instead of noise, and
1268 the querymanager makes use of this
1272 * gnettypes.h is gone
1273 * AFS specific code is all in AFS
1274 * renaming is also done
1276 Sun Aug 25 15:30:56 EST 2002
1277 Moving work towards 0.4.9 to CVS. The major goals are:
1278 * independent transport layer (UDP, TCP, SMTP, HTTP,
1279 any of these should be possible in the future); also,
1280 the MTU may be defined differently by any one of them.
1281 * independent application layer. Anonymous File Sharing
1282 (AFS) should just be one application for the GNUnet
1285 Other minor goals and refactorings include:
1286 * configuration - we should be able to update dynamically
1287 options from the gnunet.conf file. E.g. by adding options
1288 from the command line
1289 * statistics - we should not have a hardwired fixed set
1290 of datapoints, the statistics module should be useful
1291 for any kind of statistics
1292 * noise reduction - the connection buffer should allow
1293 the use of intelligent applications that get notified
1294 if noise would be send and then can plug in useful data
1296 And then there is just moving stuff:
1297 * move "common/" to where it belongs (either applications
1299 * gnettypes is bad if we want to seperate app specifcs
1300 and core. The typedefs should be placed where they are
1302 * database does not belong in util, it's AFS specific
1303 * AFS: cleaner separation between database, encoding,
1304 protocol implementation, shell-tools and GUI code.
1306 And finally, renaming:
1307 * if we have TCP for peer-to-peer communications,
1308 we can't use "TCP" vs. "UDP" to distinguish p2p from
1309 client-server, thus: "UDP" becomes "p2p" and "TCP"
1310 becomes "CS". At least where they were used to distinguish
1311 node-to-node and client-server (gnunetd).
1313 Sun Aug 25 15:02:31 EST 2002
1314 Releasing GNUnet 0.4.6.
1316 Thu Aug 22 01:31:21 EEST 2002
1317 gnunet-gtk should now be able to perform multiple
1318 search and download operations simultaneously (atleast a couple).
1320 Tue Aug 20 23:11:10 EEST 2002
1321 Fixed segfault in gnunet-search and gnunet-gtk which appeared
1322 when there was lots of results.
1323 Modified gnunetd to return more results at once if there
1324 is excess bandwidth.
1326 Sun Aug 18 23:57:10 EST 2002
1327 Reworked the lookup-database. The old database got
1328 into trouble storing data when it was 6% full. Some
1329 simulations show that the new approach should manage
1330 94% and should be about as fast (more CPU, presumably
1331 slightly fewer random disc accesses).
1332 This change is INCOMPATIBLE with 0.4.5. You *must*
1333 run "gnunet-check -a" before starting this new version
1334 of gnunetd in order to migrate to the new format. For
1335 database simulation and statistical numbers, see
1336 also src/historical/simula.c.
1338 Fri Aug 16 17:07:15 EST 2002
1339 Releasing GNUnet 0.4.5.
1341 Fri Aug 16 16:43:39 EST 2002
1342 Added feature that will allow the specification of
1343 multiple URLs for downloading the initial hostlist.
1345 Mon Aug 12 02:28:14 EST 2002
1346 Fixed big problem in requestmanager that would
1347 make downloads *very* slow for no good reason
1348 at all (ttl increment in wrong place would make
1349 us defer the next request for more than twice
1350 as long as needed, plus some other minor bugs).
1352 Mon Aug 12 01:31:03 EST 2002
1353 Fixed bug #347 (option "-H" to gnunet-clients for
1354 connecting to a remote gnunetd node).
1356 Mon Aug 12 01:10:17 EST 2002
1357 Fixed bug #348 (no more scan of the entire database
1358 on startup, instead the databases (gdbm, tdb) contain
1359 an entry that gives the nubmer of entries). Note that
1360 this is not done for contentdatabase_directory.
1362 Sun Aug 11 17:00:03 EEST 2002
1363 Crude file insertion capabilities added to gnunet-gtk gui.
1365 Thu Aug 8 19:13:34 EST 2002
1366 Added progress bar / printing of insertion status to
1367 gnunet-insert (option "-V").
1369 Thu Aug 8 19:02:33 EST 2002
1370 Cleaning up code (establishing sessions, etc.)
1372 Thu Aug 8 18:03:05 EST 2002
1373 Fixed bug #343 (overflow in stats) by moving to
1374 long long. Let's hope that __BYTE_ORDER is
1375 actually defined outside of netinet/in.h.
1377 Thu Aug 8 17:47:17 EST 2002
1378 Fixed gnunetd segfaulting if gnunet.conf is not
1379 available. Also, recvfrom returning -1 with
1380 errno == EAGAIN was fixed earlier.
1382 Wed Jul 31 23:38:36 EST 2002
1385 Wed Jul 31 21:35:53 EST 2002
1386 Fixed bug with TCP connection that would not
1387 free thread resources and eventually lead to
1388 gnunetd not being able to start new threads
1389 anymore (mantis: #339).
1391 Tue Jul 30 23:38:51 EST 2002
1392 Fixed SIGHUP exiting. The main loop was exiting
1393 because recvfrom returned -1 with errno EINTR,
1394 which caused us to break out of the main loop.
1395 Also added gnunetd.pid file to simplify killing
1396 (or re-reading configuration of) the server.
1397 You must specify the PIDFILE in gnunet.conf!
1399 Tue Jul 30 20:38:47 EST 2002
1400 Started writing code to enable re-reading of the
1401 configuration file whenever we receive a SIGHUP.
1402 Works, except that after we've read the new
1403 config file, gnunetd exits (unknown why).
1405 Mon Jul 29 18:52:23 EST 2002
1406 Added shutdown code that terminates connection when
1407 SIGTERM is received (to avoid keeping lots of UDP
1408 traffic for the next couple of minutes from hosts
1409 that still believe we're up).
1411 Sat Jul 27 12:39:47 EST 2002
1412 Added code to measure network load asymmetrically (useful
1415 Fri Jul 26 22:46:54 EST 2002
1418 Wed Jul 24 21:13:08 EST 2002
1419 Fixed bug in locking and segfault (Linux tolerated,
1420 BSD crashed, both in connection.c), added logging service.
1422 Tue Jul 23 00:41:17 EST 2002
1423 Made gnunetd fork like a nice deamon should. Also
1424 started to add a logging service.
1426 Sun Jul 21 20:39:20 EST 2002
1427 Fixed issue with check_database (index checking too
1428 strict if content is available in database and
1429 on-demand encoded; also a bounds check was missing).
1431 Sun Jul 21 16:05:20 EST 2002
1432 Fixed deadlock in heloexchange (knownhost requires
1435 Sun Jul 21 02:02:32 EST 2002
1436 Improved routing table. Now does more dynamic memory
1437 allocation, reducing the fixed-size per slot from 700
1438 to 56 bytes. Increased number of slots from 512 to
1439 8092 (which is the optimal number for a 56 kbps
1442 Sat Jul 20 23:57:06 EST 2002
1443 Fixed bug that caused problems for files
1444 that were indexed and that had spaces in
1447 Wed Jul 17 22:50:24 EST 2002
1448 Fixed bug that prohibited a transitive HELO exchange
1451 Wed Jul 17 01:48:44 EST 2002
1452 Fixed a couple of bugs in gnunet-check and the
1453 insertion-tools. Now gnunet-check seems to run like
1454 a charm. Running it to detect and fix problems in
1455 the GNUnet databases seems now recommendable :-).
1456 Note that you must stop gnunetd before running
1459 Mon Jul 15 22:27:45 EST 2002
1460 Added return values for insertion. If we run out of
1461 space (in particular for the fixed-size index
1462 database), we can now communicate the problem to the
1464 gnunet-check is now pretty much feature-complete,
1465 but it takes of course very, very long to run. There
1466 is now also a man-page for gnunet-check.
1468 Thu Jul 11 11:33:34 EST 2002
1469 Added randomized order of blocks for the download
1470 (patch by I. Wronsky).
1472 Thu Jun 20 21:13:21 EST 2002
1473 Added HANGUP, a message send if one side terminates the connection.
1474 Sending the message is optional, but it is nicer to have it. Also
1475 started on gnunet-check, a tool to check database consistency.
1477 Thu Jun 20 03:11:01 EST 2002
1478 Improved handling of collisions in the hashes in the
1479 lookup module (uses no longer a linear scan on the
1480 collisions file but a hashtable for the collisions!).
1482 Tue Jun 18 20:29:38 EST 2002
1483 Released GNUnet 0.4.2.
1485 Tue Jun 18 20:20:55 EST 2002
1486 Fixed bugs in blacklisting IPs. Added feature to allow specification
1487 which networks are trusted enough to connect to the trusted TCP
1488 port (TCP/2086 no longer needs to be firewalled!).
1490 Tue Jun 18 02:35:53 EST 2002
1491 Fixed problems with ttl (negative TTL queries were forwarded),
1492 also better flushing of buffers and fewer SKEY exchanges due to
1493 a now working implementation of the blacklist. A DNS lookup for
1494 the NAT-box-IP configuration was also added.
1496 Sun Jun 16 04:11:01 EST 2002
1497 Added code to provide statistics (gnunet-stats).
1500 Sun Jun 9 22:56:02 EST 2002
1501 Released GNUnet 0.4.1.
1503 Sat Jun 8 05:00:36 EST 2002
1504 Several small bugfixes (list of shared files not updated on
1505 insertion, highest-bit of trust not interpreted as dirty,
1506 rpm dependency on libextractor added.
1507 Also many improvments to the build process.
1509 Wed Jun 5 17:01:58 EST 2002
1510 Made sure that HELOs don't trigger Ping-Pong if we don't
1511 really learn anything new.
1513 Tue Jun 4 17:17:45 EST 2002
1514 The port numbers were not in network-byte order. Fixing
1515 this is trivial, but it breaks compatibility with 0.4.0.
1516 Thanks to Rick Kennell for reporting the endianess issue.
1518 Mon Jun 3 20:35:47 EST 2002
1519 Fixed bug with CRC not endian-converted in gnunet-gtk.
1520 Added mimetype and filename support to gnunet-gtk.
1522 Sun Jun 2 03:52:18 EST 2002
1525 Sat Jun 1 22:13:12 EST 2002
1526 Added three-way handshake for SKEY exchange. Not tested.
1528 Sat Jun 1 16:55:18 EST 2002
1529 Fixed potential DDoS problem where malicious hosts could
1530 trick GNUnet servers to repeatedly probe a non-partitipating host
1531 trying to establish a connection. I wonder how many other
1532 p2p systems are vulnerable. (Fix: after HELO, play PING-PONG).
1533 The endianess issues should be fixed throughout the system, but
1534 not tested on a real machine so far.
1536 Sat May 25 15:55:11 EST 2002
1537 Moved to new CVS server. First changes towards 0.4.0:
1539 * insert/index via TCP
1540 * bugfixes (mostly performance)
1542 Sat May 18 16:00:06 EST 2002
1543 Added mimetype, filename and version number to RootNodes
1544 (mostly incompatible change!). Added automatic generic keyword
1545 and mime-type extraction via libextractor to gnunet-insert.
1547 Tue May 14 23:59:40 EST 2002
1548 New storage database is starting to look good. We can now store
1549 the data in a directory (one file per block), a gdbm database,
1550 and presumably (not tested) in a tdb database.
1552 Sat May 11 22:10:56 EST 2002
1553 Completed, deployed and tested the new TCPIO code. This changes
1554 the gnunetd-client protocol. Essentially, we convert the TCP stream
1555 into records with a length and type header. This should allow us
1556 to fix bug #212 and add other features in the future. The current
1557 change is really only changing the core TCP code and not anything
1558 around it. We should deploy some demultiplexing code later.
1560 Tue May 7 20:56:40 EST 2002
1561 Added IP blacklisting (for virtual private networks).
1563 Sat May 4 14:08:23 EST 2002
1564 Fixed bug with bad insertion of files smaller than 1k.
1566 Fri May 3 23:25:16 EST 2002
1567 Added IP change detection (useful for dialup) [bug #272].
1568 Added code to ensure that a HELO is life instantly
1569 after receiving it, fixing the 'unknown host,
1570 refusing SKEY problem' (bug #273). Other minor
1571 bugfixes (#274, #283).
1573 Sun Apr 14 22:36:03 EST 2002
1574 Added option to allow NAT boxes not to exchange
1575 foreign HELOs and thus expose the private
1576 network. Fixed bug that all other hosts should
1577 in fact do this exchange.
1579 Sat Apr 13 11:02:59 EST 2002
1580 Make sure that files are readable before returning TRUE
1583 Fri Apr 12 03:01:06 EST 2002
1584 Added padding messages with random if maximum
1585 packet size is not reached. All encrypted
1586 packets now look absolutely uniform in size
1587 for a non-participating adversary (before,
1588 a host that had few queries may have sent packets
1589 that were less than the maximum size).
1591 Thu Apr 11 01:43:28 EST 2002
1592 Added sequence numbers to protocol to defend
1593 against replay attacks (bug #185).
1595 Wed Apr 10 02:07:25 EST 2002
1596 Bugfix gnunet-insert-mp3 (endless loop).
1597 Updated documentation.
1599 Mon Apr 8 00:07:15 EST 2002
1600 Fixed endless-loop bug when activemigration is turned
1601 on (during startup).
1603 Fri Apr 5 02:03:13 EST 2002
1606 Fri Apr 5 00:33:42 EST 2002
1607 gnunet-gtk, the gtk+ based GUI is now functional and
1608 has all the features of gnunet-search and gnunet-download,
1609 including boolean queries. In fact, it is a bit better than
1610 gnunet-download as it shows the progress of the download.
1611 The manpage for gnunet-gtk was updated. Minor bugfixes.
1613 Mon Mar 25 02:59:13 EST 2002
1614 Changed writeFile to use a fourth parameter which is the
1615 desired permissions for the file. Files in data/hosts
1616 are now world-readable. Created man pages
1618 Mon Mar 18 17:56:52 EST 2002
1621 Sun Mar 17 10:47:51 EST 2002
1622 Got rid of far too frequent key exchange attempts.
1623 Added expiration for very-long-dead host keys. Stopped
1624 forwarding of expired HELOs (receiver drops anyway).
1626 Wed Mar 14 05:46:20 EST 2002
1627 Fixed some file location inconsistencies. All files are
1628 now in $HOME/GNUnet. RPM installation points to /var/GNUnet
1629 and the config file is ~/GNUnet/gnunet.conf
1630 Finished port to FreeBSD. This included mostly changes
1631 to src/util/statuscalls.c, but also several changes to
1632 the build system. Added a stat() call in the server code
1633 to make sure the config file exists before sending it to
1634 the OpenSSL conf code. Added getopt to source to fix
1635 portability issues. Changed FREEBSD defs to SOMEBSD, also
1636 changed in configure.in. Compiles and works on at least
1637 FreeBSD 4.5 and OpenBSD 3.0
1639 Wed Mar 6 23:15:36 EST 2002
1640 Added code for 'fast scan' of the database for
1641 content to discard (should be called partial
1642 scan). This improves the startup-time dramatically.
1643 Every source file got the GNU header.
1645 Tue Mar 5 22:42:36 EST 2002
1646 Added option for *not* participating in content
1647 migration. Added timeout option to gnunet-search.
1648 gnunetd now periodically (1h) scans for new content,
1649 no restarting required.
1651 Mon Mar 4 23:21:51 EST 2002
1652 Optimized routing and content migration. Distance
1653 of the hash to the identity of the local host is
1654 now taken into account for routing. Hosts give
1655 higher priority to content that is close to their
1656 identity (priority towards keeping it). If the
1657 network grows, this should significantly improve
1658 the performance. Also, the choice of the hosts
1659 for routing is now based on proximity (to the
1660 query), the activity level of the host and its
1663 Sun Mar 3 00:14:58 EST 2002
1664 Implemented binary queries ("AND") for gnunet-search.
1665 Made sure that content is not downloaded again if
1666 already present (if there is other content, we
1667 overwrite). Fixed bug in gnunet-download
1668 (uninitialzied time-to-live).
1670 Sat Mar 2 01:57:37 EST 2002
1671 Finished porting the download-code to C. Now files can
1672 be downloaded in using shell commands. No GUI though.
1673 Released GNUnet v0.3.1.
1675 Wed Feb 20 23:47:19 EST 2002
1676 Big CVS moving operation.
1678 Sat Feb 16 23:17:27 EST 2002
1679 Started migration to GNUnet.
1681 Sun Feb 3 01:20:37 EST 2002
1682 Extracted crc32 method from zlib and put only that method into
1683 primitives. Reduces our memory footprint (if nobody else uses
1684 zlib) and we no longer depend no that library (always good).
1686 Sat Feb 2 22:56:32 EST 2002
1687 Building final tarball for v0.3.0.
1689 Wed Jan 30 23:41:04 EST 2002
1690 Created mp32gnet, a tool to automaticall index mp3 files
1691 using information from the mp3 header as keywords (title,
1692 artist, album, comments). The mp3 parsing code comes from
1693 the GPL tool mp3info.
1695 Tue Jan 29 17:36:48 EST 2002
1696 Fixed bug with files that were not closed under certain
1697 circumstances and lead to an exhaustion of the number of
1698 concurrently open files.
1700 Mon Jan 21 23:34:44 EST 2002
1701 Bumping version numbers to v0.3.0 (not yet released, needs some
1702 more testing to be on the safe side).
1704 Sun Jan 20 02:09:06 EST 2002
1705 Content gathering now discards the least important
1706 content in favour of new, more important content (if
1707 there is not space for all content). The cron
1708 management is now used everywhere. The rpm, the init-script
1709 and the gproxy shell script have been revised.
1711 Sun Jan 13 23:17:58 EST 2002
1712 Created cron management, replacing old control
1713 thread (allows for better timing of events).
1714 EvaluateContent now gets the priority of the
1715 query that the content had.
1717 Sun Jan 13 00:54:56 EST 2002
1718 Improved choice in number of hosts to forward
1719 queries to (now dynamic, depending on priority, etc.)
1720 Removed many, many allocations in print statements
1721 which also caused memory leaks if active (see
1723 Added CRC checking of the root node in GProxy. Fixed
1724 problem with CRC in IBlocks for large files.
1725 Added dialog to GProxy to choose where to save the file.
1727 Sat Jan 5 14:25:31 EST 2002
1728 Optimized routing table. Routing table is now a hashtable
1729 (collisions are handled by droping either the former or the
1730 new entry). Each bucket has it's own lock, the global
1731 semaphore is gone. The table has many more entries (we can
1732 afford that now that there is no longer a linear search).
1734 Wed Dec 26 19:30:41 CET 2001
1737 Tue Dec 25 21:24:18 CET 2001
1738 Fixed TTL errors that made queries loop. Added host-evaluation
1739 to policy (drop packets from untrusted hosts under load). Found that CRC-errors
1740 are related to policy decisions ("drop"), cosmetic fix.
1742 Sun Nov 25 08:10:52 EST 2001
1743 Added triple-hash functionality and on-demand encoding (lookup.c).
1745 Sat Nov 24 07:46:10 EST 2001
1746 Added randomized choice of hosts for the hosttable.
1748 Thu Nov 22 04:57:57 EST 2001
1749 Fixed another bunch of big bugs, tested, seems to work smoothly. Creating V0.1.0.
1751 Mon Nov 19 01:22:42 EST 2001:
1752 Fixed biggest (show-stopper) bugs. Creating V0.0.3
1754 Fri Oct 26 02:20:00 EST 2001:
