[freenet-dev] Freemail 0.1.1 and 0.2 released
After being in development for nearly a year Freemail 0.2 has been released. The two main features in 0.2 is the new identity management which uses the Web of Trust plugin, and a webmail client. This work was mostly done as part of Google Summer of Code 2011. Due to the identity management changes this version is incompatible with the earlier releases, but to ease the migration the two versions can be used at the same time without any issues. Version 0.1.1 fixes a number of bugs including one potential security issue that could enable an attacker with access to the Freenet log files to fetch emails from Freenet after they should have been inaccessible. Both versions will be available through Freenet after the next update, and from CHK at xXc1H2eh-1OtCoE4Z0-G4~5SfOFpTWa6YWOP~D4PyuA,dKRuAVWFlHd8ZNvFsIJj1Hzzuyoc7EfoVIXYgz-rfsg,AAIC--8/Freemail-0.1.1.jar CHK at S0AnW~5CXyh3pLkzJHbRm5xj8kf26GyLcT3Zuf1UAsU,pt-TGV39s1ucWNTkZKMdo1dQyaxzaUsSjXlYtBAqfvc,AAIC--8/Freemail-0.2.jar I am very interested in feedback about the reliability of Freemail, any bugs I have missed and performance problems. This can be reported through the mailing list, the bug tracker and on Freenet. Detailed changelog for 0.1.1 (also included in 0.2): o Security fixes: - Log message fetch and insert keys at debug instead of normal/error. If a collision occurred the new slot would be logged at error, which would break the forward secrecy of the slot system until the log was deleted. This would enable an attacker with access to the log files to retrieve messages from Freenet. o Bugfixes: - Folders deleted using a mail client are now deleted properly - Fixes a crash that could occur if a mail client connected while Freemail was shutting down - The startup message now shows the correct licence (GPL) - Fixes a bug where certain email addresses would cause received messages to be empty - Fixes a race condition which could lead to Freemail hanging - Don't delete CC headers from a message before sending - Always print a log message when Freemail isn't connected to the node - IMAP: Remove extra space that was printed in a fetch response without a range - IMAP: Fix error message when the end of a range was invalid - IMAP: Handle strange sequence number ranges - IMAP: Remove \* from permanent flags since they were not stored - IMAP: Fix append with two or more flags - IMAP: Reply with error if the append length couldn't be parsed - Fix various locking issues - Don't log the recently failed fetch result as an error o Improvements: - Improve the explanations on the create account page - Only resend the RTS once per two days instead of once per message in the outbox per two days, reducing resource usage for unacked messages - Send messages in the order they will be received, improving performance when sending a large amount of messages - Alternate between sending and receiving, stopping sending/receiving a large number of messages from blocking other operations o Build improvements: - Compile for Java 1.6 - Include git describe output in version - Enable warnings when building - Make Ant and Eclipse output files to the same location (build/) o Code changes: - Add unit tests for various classes (mostly IMAP) - Improve errors returned/thrown by HighLevelFCPClient - Add type parameters to all code - Add missing @Override annotations - Throw AssertionError in some cases that should be impossible - Use constants for config file keys - Respond to interrupts in the FCP code -- next part -- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

There was a study that higher uptime correlated with the probability of further uptime so if you shift bias towards low-uptime nodes you could end will lower overall reliability. It was done on a different network with different usage patterns but imho you should definitely treat node uptime as a parameter in any simulations.

[freenet-dev] Freemail 0.1.1 and 0.2 released
After being in development for nearly a year Freemail 0.2 has been released. The two main features in 0.2 is the new identity management which uses the Web of Trust plugin, and a webmail client. This work was mostly done as part of Google Summer of Code 2011. Due to the identity management changes this version is incompatible with the earlier releases, but to ease the migration the two versions can be used at the same time without any issues. Version 0.1.1 fixes a number of bugs including one potential security issue that could enable an attacker with access to the Freenet log files to fetch emails from Freenet after they should have been inaccessible.
