Freenet 0.5rc1 has been released. It is available for unix users from http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/freenet/freenet-0.5rc1.tgz?download Windows users should use the autoinstaller, which is at http://freenetproject.org/snapshots/freenet-webinstall.exe
Freenet 0.5rc1 contains substantial fixes and improvements from 0.5pre5, including a small patch that should significantly reduce the time it takes to find data (once the new version is widely deployed), substantial improvements to startup times and a number of other important bugfixes. It will become Freenet 0.5.0 on Monday if no critical bugs are found in the meantime, and has been created from a frozen branch. When it is released as 0.5.0, it will become a mandatory upgrade (meaning that it will refuse to talk to old nodes), so please upgrade now. -- Matthew Toseland toad at amphibian.dyndns.org amphibian at users.sourceforge.net Freenet/Coldstore open source hacker.
