GNUnet P2P Framework 0.9.1

Posted Dec 27, 2011

Authored by Christian Grothoff | Site ovmj.org

GNUnet is a peer-to-peer framework with focus on providing security. All peer-to-peer messages in the network are confidential and authenticated. The framework provides a transport abstraction layer and can currently encapsulate the network traffic in UDP (IPv4 and IPv6), TCP (IPv4 and IPv6), HTTP, or SMTP messages. GNUnet supports accounting to provide contributing nodes with better service. The primary service build on top of the framework is anonymous file sharing.

Changes: This is a bugfix release. Noteworthy improvements include improved keyword extraction from filenames, a better heuristic for file-sharing content migration, and a significant traffic reduction for the network-size estimation protocol. The code now distinguishes between LAN and WAN for bandwidth consumption. Bugfixes include an increased FD_SETSIZE on W32, corrected struct alignment for network messages on W32, and fixes of various crashes (in the datastore, file-sharing, transport, ATS, and hostlist subsystems).
