I2P 0.7.1 released

[Markus]

Source: My I2P router console

The 0.7.1 release optimizes I2P towards better performance and introduces new features.

Multiple bugs are fixed, replacements to the SimpleTimer class should waste less time on object locking. Some old components are dropped and several classes refactored to avoid repeating code.

Support for encrypted LeaseSets (for creation of links over I2P which an adversary cannot obstruct by attacking its gateways) becomes more complete. New tunnel types like IRC server tunnels and new options like delayed start and idling of tunnels also gain support, along with improved usability of the I2P Socks proxy mechanism.

Work continues on streamlining and expanding the Router Console, on the BOB protocol, on I2P ports for Debian and Slackware Linux, on the I2PSnark client, on TCP connection properties and multiple other fronts. Updating is highly recommended.

Sounds good!  I will update soon.

Latest version strongly recommended (vulnerability in 0.7) 2009-04-08
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1

Hello, As mentioned in the "news.xml" file, a vulnerability was found in the I2P version 0.7 and upgrading is strongly recommended (0.7.1 is resistant to it). Full information will follow when enough time has passed or the number of 0.7 routers has dropped low enough. Thanks to the people who noticed it, and apologies for its existence. It was not something one can notice immediately, with the limited testing capability we have available.

Complication.
