Hi,
I’m pushing a test release for 1495 right now. If you want to help test it, you can change the update key of your node to USK@wytBz~rduWSo9-MmVW4AVqY3ESebPPCP9vC-eSxe-vg,mZqWi0sHmhn5kt0idu-~K4pk~~8eNXxMeYen73FOfA8,AQACAAE/jar/1494 (see http://127.0.0.1:8888/config/node.updater?fproxyAdvancedMode=2 ) Release notes: - descriptions: SSK@wytBz~rduWSo9-MmVW4AVqY3ESebPPCP9vC-eSxe-vg,mZqWi0sHmhn5kt0idu-~K4pk~~8eNXxMeYen73FOfA8,AQACAAE/changelog-1495?type=text/plain - technical: SSK@wytBz~rduWSo9-MmVW4AVqY3ESebPPCP9vC-eSxe-vg,mZqWi0sHmhn5kt0idu-~K4pk~~8eNXxMeYen73FOfA8,AQACAAE/fullchangelog-1495?type=text/plain If no bigger problems crop up, this will become the release for 1495. New users --------- There is a new firsttime wizard for single-step setup, contributed by redwerk and finally merged after resolving dependency-requirement. To further ease the start, the bookmarks are re-organized with "starting points" at the top. User experience --------------- For integration in browser extensions, TheSeeker added support for the schemes web+freenet and ext+freenet which do not need further allow-listing by browsers to use. CometZ@6DtYG~ created a new theme sky-dark-static, a clean dark scheme, simpler than Winterfacey. To enable more beautiful Freesites, Spider Admin, naejadu and vwoodzell extended the CSS filter to enable sticky, transition, and word-wrap. The m3u-player is now only inserted into sites which contain at least one video or audio tag. When a part of a stream fails, it is now skipped, allowing for continuous playback without user-intervention. Performance ----------- For better lifetime of larger files, the healing size is increased from 20 to 320 MiB, so a 320 MiB file will keep working if accessed once every 10 days. And the pending keys optimizations by Eleriseth should reduce the CPU load on very fast nodes with many peers. Further technical improvements ------------------------------ - finally merged the HashingAPI by unixninja92, a GSoC project that had gotten lost in the pull requests. This provides an easy and well-tested way to create and verify different types of Hashes from byte arrays, including Sha256 and TigerTree. https://github.com/freenet/fred/pull/258 - old announcement fixes by toad were finally merged - unit tests were upgraded to junit4, thanks to vwoodzell! - the client getter method now honors the max size argument Thank you for using Freenet!
