+==============
+
+{% trans -%}
+In the 0.9.43 release, we continue work on stronger security and privacy features and performance improvements.
+Our implementation of the new leaseset specification (LS2) is now complete.
+We are beginning our implementation of stronger and faster end-to-end encryption (proposal 144) for a future release.
+Several IPv6 address detection issues have been fixed, and there of course are several other bug fixes.
+{%- 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.
