Freenet 0.7.5 build 1314 is now available, please upgrade! It will be mandatory 
on Tuesday.

This build's main new feature is a new packet format. This should give 
significant improvements in several areas:
- Fewer small packets.
- Much more efficient. Expect improved payload percentages, and failing SSK 
requests in particular (which are very important for chat etc) should use 
significantly fewer bytes.
- Better (faster) retransmission on lossy links.
- Able to adapt to any reasonable MTU.
- Lays the foundations for transport plugins (although not with really tiny 
packets).
- Also necessary for the next stage of new load management, which should go in 
next week if all goes well.

This was zidel's Summer of Code project, although I've done some last minute 
improvements.

There are also some minor changes to filename sanitising on unix OS's and some 
language infrastructure needed by Freetalk.

Please upgrade! And please let me know if you have any problems.

(1313 was never released due to finding some serious bugs at the last minute)
