* Tell our peers about who we know in the floodfill netDb every
6 hours or so, mitigating the situation where peers lose track
of floodfill routers.
* Disable the Syndie updater (people should use the new Syndie,
not this one)
* Disable the eepsite tunnel by default
* Added the per-post list of attachments/blogs/etc to the blog view in
Syndie (though this does not yet include comments or some further
refinements)
* Have the I2P shortcut launch i2p.exe instead of i2psvc.exe on windows,
removing the dox box (though also removes the restart functionality...)
* Give the i2p.exe the correct java.library.path to support the systray
dll (thanks Bobcat, Sugadude, anon!)
* Added a standalone runner for the I2PSnark web ui (build with the
command "ant i2psnark", unzip i2psnark-standalone.zip somewhere, run
with "java -jar launch-i2psnark.jar", and go to http://localhost:8002/).
* Further I2PSnark error handling
2005-12-17 jrandom
* Let multiuser accounts authorize themselves to access the remote
functionality again (thanks Ch0Hag!)
* Adjust the JVM heap size to 128MB for new installs (existing users can
accomplish this by editing wrapper.config, adding the line
"wrapper.java.maxmemory=128", and then doing a full shutdown and startup
of the router). This is relevent for heavy usage of I2PSnark in the
router console.
* Update the sorting in Syndie to consider children 'newer' than parents,
even if they have the same message ID (duh)
* Cleaned up some nav links in Syndie (good idea gloin, spaetz!)
* Added a bunch of tooltips to Syndie's fields (thanks polecat!)
* Force support for nonvalidating XML in Jetty (so we can handle GCJ/etc
better)
* Initial pass of the routerconsole revamp, starting with I2PTunnel and
being progressively rolled out to other sections at later dates.
Featuring abstracted W3C strict XHTML1.0 markup, with CSS providing
layout and styling.
* Implemented console themes. Users can create their own themes by
creating css files in: {i2pdir}/docs/themes/console/{themename}/
and activating it using the routerconsole.theme={themename} advanced
config property. Look at the example incomplete "defCon1" theme.
Note: This is very much a work in progress. Folks might want to hold-off
creating their own skins until the markup has solidified.
* Added "routerconsole.javascript.disabled=true" to disable console
client-side scripting and "routerconsole.css.disabled=true" to remove
css styling (only rolled out in the i2ptunnel interface currently)
* Fixed long standing bug with i2ptunnel client and server edit screens
where tunnel count and depth properties would fail to save. Added
backup quantity and variance configuration options.
* Added basic accessibility support (key shortcuts, linear markup, alt and
title information and form labels).
* So far only tested on IE6, Firefox 1.0.6, Opera 8 and lynx.
* Improved the bandwidth throtting on tunnel participation, especially for
low bandwidth peers.
* Improved failure handling in SSU with proactive reestablishment of
failing idle peers, and rather than shitlisting a peer who failed too
much, drop the SSU session and allow a new attempt (which, if it fails,
will cause a shitlisting)
* Clarify the cause of the shitlist on the profiles page, and include
bandwidth limiter info at the bottom of the peers page.
* Bugfix for the auto-update code to handle different usage patterns
* Decreased the addressbook recheck frequency to once every 12 hours
instead of hourly.
* Handle dynamically changing the HMAC size (again, unless your nym is
toad or jrandom, ignore this ;)
* Cleaned up some synchronization/locking code
* Better i2paddresshelper handling in the I2PTunnel httpclient, plus a new
conflict resolution page if the i2paddresshelper parameter differs from
an existing name to destination mapping.
2005-09-25 jrandom
* Fix a long standing streaming lib bug (in the inactivity detection code)
* Improved handling of initial streaming lib packet retransmissions to
kill the "lost first packet" bug (where a page shows up with the first
few KB missing)
* Add support for initial window sizes greater than 1 - useful for
eepsites to transmit e.g. 4 packets full of data along with the initial
ACK, thereby cutting down on the rtt latency. The congestion window
size can and does still shrink down to 1 packet though.
* Adjusted the streaming lib retransmission calculation algorithm to be
more TCP-like.
* Added support for pure 64bit linux with jbigi and the java service
wrapper (no need for jcpuid if we're on os.arch=amd64). Thanks mule
et al for help testing!
* UI cleanup in Syndie (thanks gloin and bar!)
2005-09-17 jrandom
* Clean up syndie a bit more and bundle a default introductory post with
both new installs and updates.
* Typo fixes on the console (thanks bar!)
* 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.
* 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.
* Added the possibility for i2ptunnel client and httpclient instances to
have their own i2p session (and hence, destination and tunnels). By
default, tunnels are shared, but that can be changed on the web
interface or with the sharedClient config option in i2ptunnel.config.
2005-04-17 jrandom
* Marked the net.i2p.i2ptunnel.TunnelManager as deprecated. Anyone use
this? If not, I want to drop it (lots of tiny details with lots of
duplicated semantics).
* Added new user-editable eepproxy error page templates.
2005-04-17 jrandom
* Revamp the tunnel building throttles, fixing a situation where the
rebuild may not recover, and defaulting it to unthrottled (users with
slow CPUs may want to set "router.tunnel.shouldThrottle=true" in their
advanced router config)
2005-03-18 jrandom
* Minor tweak to the timestamper to help reduce small skews
* Adjust the stats published to include only the relevent ones
* Only show the currently used speed calculation on the profile page
* Allow the full max # resends to be sent, rather than piggybacking the
RESET packet along side the final resend (duh)
* Add irc.postman.i2p to the default list of IRC servers for new installs
* Drop support for routers running 0.5 or 0.5.0.1 while maintaining
backwards compatability for users running 0.5.0.2.
2005-03-06 jrandom
* Allow the I2PTunnel web interface to select streaming lib options for
individual client tunnels, rather than sharing them across all of them,
as we do with the session options. This way people can (and should) set
the irc proxy to interactive and the eepproxy to bulk.
* Added a startRouter.sh script to new installs which simply calls
"sh i2prouter start". This should make it clear how people should start
I2P.
* Fixed the braindead tunnel testing logic
* If a large number of tunnels are failing (within the last 5-10 minutes)
and the current tunnel pool's configuration allows it, randomly build a
zero hop tunnel to replace failed tunnels.
* Enable postman's POP3 and SMTP tunnels by default
* (Merged the 0.5-pre branch back into CVS HEAD)
* Replaced the old tunnel routing crypto with the one specified in
router/doc/tunnel-alt.html, including updates to the web console to view
and tweak it.
* Provide the means for routers to reject tunnel requests with a wider
range of responses:
probabalistic rejection, due to approaching overload
transient rejection, due to temporary overload
bandwidth rejection, due to persistent bandwidth overload
critical rejection, due to general router fault (or imminent shutdown)
The different responses are factored into the profiles accordingly.
* Replaced the old I2CP tunnel related options (tunnels.depthInbound, etc)
with a series of new properties, relevent to the new tunnel routing code:
inbound.nickname (used on the console)
inbound.quantity (# of tunnels to use in any leaseSets)
inbound.backupQuantity (# of tunnels to keep in the ready)
inbound.length (# of remote peers in the tunnel)
inbound.lengthVariance (if > 0, permute the length by adding a random #
up to the variance. if < 0, permute the length
by adding or subtracting a random # up to the
variance)
outbound.* (same as the inbound, except for the, uh, outbound tunnels
in that client's pool)
There are other options, and more will be added later, but the above are
the most relevent ones.
* Replaced Jetty 4.2.21 with Jetty 5.1.2
* Compress all profile data on disk.
* Adjust the reseeding functionality to work even when the JVM's http proxy
is set.
* Enable a poor-man's interactive-flow in the streaming lib by choking the
max window size.
* Reduced the default streaming lib max message size to 16KB (though still
configurable by the user), also doubling the default maximum window
size.
* Replaced the RouterIdentity in a Lease with its SHA256 hash.
* Reduced the overall I2NP message checksum from a full 32 byte SHA256 to
the first byte of the SHA256.
* Added a new "netId" flag to let routers drop references to other routers
who we won't be able to talk to.
* Extended the timestamper to get a second (or third) opinion whenever it
wants to actually adjust the clock offset.
* Replaced that kludge of a timestamp I2NP message with a full blown
DateMessage.
* Substantial memory optimizations within the router and the SDK to reduce
GC churn. Client apps and the streaming libs have not been tuned,
however.
* More bugfixes thank you can shake a stick at.
2005-02-13 jrandom
* Updated jbigi source to handle 64bit CPUs. The bundled jbigi.jar still
only contains 32bit versions, so build your own, placing libjbigi.so in
your install dir if necessary. (thanks mule!)
* Added support for libjbigi-$os-athlon64 to NativeBigInteger and CPUID
(thanks spaetz!)
* i2pProxy.pac, i2pbench.sh, and i2ptest.sh are now shipped with the dist
packages and installed to $i2pinstalldir/scripts.
* Added command line params to i2ptest.sh and i2pbench.sh: --gij to run them
using gij + libgcj, and --sourcedir to run them from the source tree
instead of the installation directory.
* Fixed unreachable for() statement clause in the KBucketImpl class that was
causing gcj to toss a compilation warning (jrandom++).
* Cleaned up the postinstall/startup scripts a bit more to handle winME,
and added windows info to the headless docs. (thanks ardvark!)
* Fixed a harmless (yet NPE inspiring) race during the final shutdown of
a stream (thanks frosk!)
* Add a pair of new stats for monitoring tunnel participation -
tunnel.participatingBytesProcessed (total # bytes transferred) and
tunnel.participatingBytesProcessedActive (total # bytes transferred for
tunnels whose byte count exceed the 10m average). This should help
further monitor congestion issues.
* Made the NamingService factory property public (thanks susi!)
* Added a new i2ptunnel type: 'httpserver', allowing you to specify what
hostname should be sent to the webserver. By default, new installs will
have an httpserver pointing at their jetty instance with the spoofed
name 'mysite.i2p' (editable on the /i2ptunnel/edit.jsp page).
* Use a simpler and less memory intensive job for processing outbound
client messages when the session is in mode=bestEffort. We can
immediately discard the data as soon as its sent the first time,
rather than wait for an ack, since we will never internally resend.
* Reduce some synchronization to avoid a rare deadlock
* Replaced 'localhost' with 127.0.0.1 in the i2ptunnel config, and special
case it within the tunnel controller.
* Script cleanup for building jbigi/jcpuid
* Logging
* Reduced contention for local client delivery
* Drop the new code that munges the wrapper.config. Instead, updates that
need to change it will include their own wrapper.config in the
i2pupdate.zip, overwriting the existing file. If the file
"wrapper.config.updated" is included, it is deleted at first opportunity
and the router shut down, displaying a notice that the router must be
started again cleanly to allow the changes to the wrapper.config to take
effect.
* Properly stop accept()ing I2PSocket connections if we close down the
session (duh).
* Make sure we cancel any outstanding Packets in flight when a connection
is terminated (thanks susi!)
* Split up the I2PTunnel closing a little further.
* Revised the installer to include start menu and desktop shortcuts for
windows platforms, including pretty icons (thanks DrWoo!)
* Allow clients specified in clients.config to have an explicit startup
delay.
* Update the default install to launch a browser pointing at the console
whenever I2P starts up, rather than only the first time it starts up
(configurable on /configservice.jsp, or in clients.config)
* Bugfix to the clock skew checking code to monitor the delta between
offsets, not the offset itself (duh)
* Router console html update
* New (and uuuuugly) code to verify that the wrapper.config contains
the necessary classpath entries on update. If it has to update the
wrapper.config, it will stop the JVM and service completely, since the
java service wrapper doesn't reread the wrapper.config on JVM restart -
requiring the user to manually restart the service after an update.
* Increase the TCP connection timeout to 30s (which is obscenely long)
------------------------------------------------
* Update the I2PTunnel web interface to include an option for the new
streaming lib (which is ignored until the 0.4.2 release).
* Revised the I2PTunnel web interface to keep the I2CP options of client
and httpclient tunnels in sync, as they all share the same I2CP session.
* Fix a strange race condition on i2cp client disconnect.
* win98 startup fixes (thanks tester-1 and ardvark!)
* include build scripts for the new streaming lib (which is NOT ready
for use yet, but you can hack around with it)
(enjoy, duck)
2004-09-30 jrandom
* Bundle the configuration necessary to run an eepsite out of the box
with Jetty - simply edit ./eepsite/docroot/index.html and give people
the key listed on the I2PTunnel configuration page, and its up.
* Router console cleanup, and some (off by default) tunnels -
smtp.postman.i2p (port 7659), pop.postman.i2p (port 7660), and
irc.baffled.i2p (port 7661)
* Bundle the configuration necessary to run an eepsite out of the box
with Jetty - simply edit ./eepsite/docroot/index.html and give people
the key listed on the I2PTunnel configuration page, and its up.
plus minor bugfixes / refactoring / logging
