* Updated the bandwidth limiter to use two tiers of bandwidth - our normal
steady state rate, plus a new limit on how fast we transfer when
bursting. This is different from the old "burst as fast as possible
until we're out of tokens" policy, and should help those with congested
networks. See /config.jsp to manage this rate.
* Bugfixes in Syndie to handle missing cache files (no data was lost, the
old posts just didn't show up).
* Log properly in EepPost
* Added the natively compiled jbigi and patched java service wrapper for
OS X. Thanks Bill Dorsey for letting me use your machine!
* Don't build i2p.exe or i2pinstall.exe when run on OS X machines, as we
don't bundle the binutils necessary (and there'd be a naming conflict
if we did).
* Added 'single user' functionality to syndie - if the single user
checkbox on the admin page is checked, all users are allowed to control
the instance and sync up with remote syndie nodes.
* Temporarily disable the x-i2p-gzip in i2ptunnel until it is more closely
debugged.
* Adjust I2PTunnelHTTPServer so it can be used for outproxy operators
(just specify the spoofed host as an empty string), allowing them to
honor x-i2p-gzip encoding.
* Let windows users build the exes too (thanks bar and redzara!)
* Allow I2PTunnel httpserver operators to disable gzip compression on
individual tunnels with the i2ptunnel.gzip=false client option
(good idea susi!)
* Added the i2p.exe and i2pinstall.exe for windows users, using launch4j.
* Added runplain.sh for *nix/osx users having problems using the java
service wrapper (called from the install dir as: sh runplain.sh)
* Bundle susidns and syndie, with links on the top nav
* Have I2PTunnelHTTPClient and I2PTunnelHTTPServer use the x-i2p-gzip
content-encoding (if offered), reducing the payload size before it
reaches the streaming lib. The existing compression is at the i2cp
level, so we've been packetizing 4KB of uncompressed data and then
compressing those messages, rather than compressing and then packetizing
4KB of compressed data. This should reduce the number of round trips
to fetch web pages substantially.
* Adjust the startup and timing of the addressbook so that susidns always
has config to work off, and expose a method for susidns to tell it to
reload its config and rerun.
* More careful error handling with introductions (thanks dust!)
* Fix the forceIntroducers checkbox on config.jsp (thanks Complication!)
* Hide the shitlist on the summary so it doesn't confuse new users.
* More aggressively publish updated routerInfo.
* Expose the flag to force SSU introductions on the router console
* Don't give people the option to disable SNTP time sync, at least not
through the router console, because there is no reason to disable it.
No, not even if your OS is "ntp synced", because chances are, its not.
* Test the router's reachability earlier and more aggressively
* Use the low level bandwidth limiter's rates for the router console, and
if the router has net.i2p.router.transport.FIFOBandwidthLimiter=INFO in
the logger config, keep track of the 1 second transfer rates as the stat
'bw.sendBps1s' and 'bw.recvBps1s', allowing closer monitoring of burst
behavior.
* HTML cleanup for the router console (thanks!)

* Lay the foundation for 'client routers' - the ability for peers to opt
out of participating in tunnels entirely due to firewall/NAT issues.
Individual routers have control over where those peers are used in
tunnels - in outbound or inbound, exploratory or client tunnels, or
none at all. The defaults with this build are to simply act as before -
placing everyone as potential participants in any tunnel.
* Another part of the foundation includes the option for netDb
participants to refuse to answer queries regarding peers who are marked
as unreachable, though this too is disabled by default (meaning the
routerInfo is retrievable from the netDb).
* Expose the HTTP headers to EepGet status listeners
* Handle DSA key failures properly (if the signature is not invertable, it
is obviously invalid)
also, syndie now properly detects whether the remote archive can send a filtered export.zip
by examining the HTTP headers for X-Syndie-Export-Capable: true. If the remote archive
does not set that header (and neither freesites, nor apache or anything other than the ArchiveServlet will),
it uses individual HTTP requests for individual blog posts and metadata fetches.
rss.jsp can in turn receive all the filters that index.jsp can - e.g. ?blog=blah or ?selector=group://foo,
and by default returns the latest 10 values (overridden with ?wanted=15). If you want it to pull
with a user's blog's preferences (filters, groups, etc), you can specify ?login=user&password=password
* Don't persist peer profiles until we are shutting down, as the
persistence process gobbles RAM and wall time.
* Bugfix to allow you to check/uncheck the sharedClient setting on the
I2PTunnel web interface.
* Be more careful when expiring a failed tunnel message fragment so we
don't drop the data while attempting to read it.
* Don't publish leaseSets to the netDb if they will never be looked for -
namely, if they are for destinations that only establish outbound
streams. I2PTunnel's 'client' and 'httpclient' proxies have been
modified to tell the router that it doesn't need to publish their
leaseSet (by setting the I2CP config option 'i2cp.dontPublishLeaseSet'
to 'true').
* Don't publish the top 10 peer rankings of each router in the netdb, as
it isn't being watched right now.
* Minor logging and optimization tweaks in the router and SDK
* Use ISO-8859-1 in the XML files (thanks redzara!)
* The consolePassword config property can now be used to bypass the router
console's nonce checking, allowing CLI restarts
* Catch errors with corrupt tunnel messages more gracefully (no need to
kill the thread and cause an OOM...)
* Don't skip shitlisted peers for netDb store messages, as they aren't
necessarily shitlisted by other people (though they probably are).
* Adjust the netDb store per-peer timeout based on each particular peer's
profile (timeout = 4x their average netDb store response time)
* Don't republish leaseSets to *failed* peers - send them to peers who
replied but just didn't know the value.
* Set a 5 second timeout on the I2PTunnelHTTPServer reading the client's
HTTP headers, rather than blocking indefinitely. HTTP headers should be
sent entirely within the first streaming packet anyway, so this won't be
a problem.
* Don't use the I2PTunnel*Server handler thread pool by default, as it may
prevent any clients from accessing the server if the handlers get
blocked by the streaming lib or other issues.
* Don't overwrite a known status (OK/ERR-Reject/ERR-SymmetricNAT) with
Unknown.
* Removed the concept of "no bandwidth limit" - if none is specified, its
16KBps in/out.
* Include ack packets in the per-peer cwin throttle (they were part of the
bandwidth limit though).
* Tweak the SSU cwin operation to get more accurrate estimates under
congestions.
* SSU improvements to resend more efficiently.
* Added a basic scheduler to eepget to fetch multiple files sequentially.
* Deployed the peer testing implementation to be run every few minutes on
each router, as well as any time the user requests a test manually. The
tests do not reconfigure the ports at the moment, merely determine under
what conditions the local router is reachable. The status shown in the
top left will be "ERR-SymmetricNAT" if the user's IP and port show up
differently for different peers, "ERR-Reject" if the router cannot
receive unsolicited packets or the peer helping test could not find a
collaborator, "Unknown" if the test has not been run or the test
participants were unreachable, or "OK" if the router can receive
unsolicited connections and those connections use the same IP and port.
* Add a configurable throttle to the number of concurrent outbound SSU
connection negotiations (via i2np.udp.maxConcurrentEstablish=4). This
may help those with slow connections to get integrated at the start.
* Further fixlets to the streaming lib
* Display the average clock skew for both SSU and TCP connections

* Fixed the long standing streaming lib bug where we could lose the first
packet on retransmission.
* Avoid an NPE when a message expires on the SSU queue.
* Adjust the streaming lib's window growth factor with an additional
Vegas-esque congestion detection algorithm.
* Removed an unnecessary SSU session drop
* Reduced the MTU (until we get a working PMTU lib)
* Deferr tunnel acceptance until we know how to reach the next hop,
rejecting it if we can't find them in time.
* If our netDb store of our leaseSet fails, give it a few seconds before
republishing.
* Fix an addressbook NPE when a new hostname from the master addressbook
didn't exist in the router addressbook.
* Fix an addressbook bug which caused subscriptions not to be parsed at
all. (Oops!)
