|

Hello I2P! This is the first release signed by me (str4d), after 49 releases
|
||||
signed by zzz. This is an important test of our redundancy for all things,
|
||||
including people.

Housekeeping
|
||||
============
|

{%- endtrans %}

|
||||
My signing key has been in router updates for over two years (since 0.9.9), so
|
||||
if you are on a recent version of I2P this update should be just as easy as
|
||||
every other update. However, if you are running an older version than 0.9.9, you
|
||||
will first need to manually update to a recent version. Update files for recent
|
||||
versions `can be downloaded here`_, and instructions on how to manually update
|
||||
`are provided here`_. Once you have manually updated, your router will then find
|
||||
and download the 0.9.23 update as usual.

.. _{% trans %}`are provided here`{% endtrans %}: {{ get_url('downloads_list') }}#update
|
||||
|
||||
{% trans -%}
|
||||
If you installed I2P via a package manager, you are not affected by the change,
|
||||
and can update as usual.

Update details
|
||||
==============
|
||||
{%- endtrans %}
|
||||
|
||||
{% trans -%}
|
||||
The migration of RouterInfos to new, stronger Ed25519 signatures is going well,
|
||||
with at least half of the network already estimated to have rekeyed. This
|
||||
release accelerates the rekeying process. To reduce network churn, your router
|
||||
will have a small probability of converting to Ed25519 at each restart. When it
|
||||
does rekey, expect to see lower bandwidth usage for a couple of days as it
|
||||
reintegrates into the network with its new identity.
|
||||
{%- endtrans %}
|
||||
|
||||
{% trans -%}
|
||||
Note that this will be the last release to support Java 6. Please update to
|
||||
Java 7 or 8 as soon as possible. We are already working to make I2P compatible
|
||||
with the upcoming Java 9, and some of that work is in this release.
|
||||
{%- endtrans %}
|
||||
|
||||
{% trans -%}
|
||||
We have also made some minor improvements in I2PSnark, and added a new page in
|
||||
the routerconsole for viewing older news items.
|
||||
{%- endtrans %}
|
||||
|
||||
{% trans -%}
|
||||
As usual, we recommend that you update to this release. The best way to
|
||||
maintain security and help the network is to run the latest release.
