Freenet stable build 5082 is now available. The snapshots have been
updated. Please upgrade ASAP. Stable branch users should upgrade at
least weekly as Freenet is still at a relatively early phase of
development. You can use the update option on the start menu, or
freenet-webinstall.exe to update your node on Windows. Or undex Linux,
MacOS/X or other POSIX-like systems, you can use update.sh:
./stop-freenet.sh
./update.sh
./start-freenet.sh

Please remember to stop the node before updating, and start it again
afterwards.
You can also get the jar directly from 
http://freenetproject.org/snapshots/freenet-latest.jar

Details of this build:
Various bug fixes, some of them pretty serious. Comes to a fairly small
amount of actual code though. Lots more changes are being tested and 
debugged on unstable.
* Rate limiting was almost completely broken due to a stupid bug. Fixed
  it.
* Major routing fix: many of our running averages were, for various
  reasons, at 0.999999999999 or so. With the current running average
  implementation for probabilities, the result of this is that the
  running average will never change (because the closer it is to 0.0 or
  1.0, the less sensitive it is). We were supposed to be doing bounds
  checking to ensure that this wasn't a problem; there was a bug in the
  bounds checking :(. The result of this bug was that some of the major
  factors in the NGRouting calculation were very often completely wrong!
  The current implementation is suboptimal, there is a replacement 
  being tested on unstable, but the code merged in this build should be
  much better than the previous builds!
* Fixed a NullPointerException that would cause the web interface to
  stop working after a while.
* Show some more useful detail next to probability running averages on
  the per node pages linked from the routing table page.
* Don't leak a temp file when an insert fails.
* A minor optimization in DSAPublicKey.equals(), and some minor code
  style changes.
