* Bundled dust's Sucker for pulling RSS/Atom content into SML, which can
then be injected into Syndie with the Syndie CLI.
* Bundled ROME and JDOM (BSD and Apache licensed, respectively) for
RSS/Atom parsing.

* SSU retransmission choke bugfix (== != !=)
* Include initial transmissions in the retransmission choke, so that
if we are already retransmitting a message, we won't send anything
to that peer other than that message (or ACKs, if necessary)
* 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.
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.
* Removed the concept of "no bandwidth limit" - if none is specified, its
16KBps in/out.
* Include ack packets in the per-peer cwin throttle (they were part of the
bandwidth limit though).
* Tweak the SSU cwin operation to get more accurrate estimates under
congestions.
* SSU improvements to resend more efficiently.
* Added a basic scheduler to eepget to fetch multiple files sequentially.
* Reduced the growth factor on the slow start and congestion avoidance for
the streaming lib.
* Adjusted some of the I2PTunnelServer threading to use a small pool of
handlers, rather than launching off new threads which then immediately
launch off an I2PTunnelRunner instance (which launches 3 more threads..)
* Don't persist session keys / session tags (not worth it, for now)
* Added some detection and handling code for duplicate session tags being
delivered (root cause still not addressed)
* Make the PRNG's buffer size configurable (via the config property
"i2p.prng.totalBufferSizeKB=4096")
* Disable SSU flooding by default (duh)
* Updates to the StreamSink apps for better throttling tests.
* Phase 1 of the unit test bounty completed. (The router build script was modified not to build the router
tests because of a broken dependancy on the core tests. This should be fixed in
phase 3 of the unit test bounty.)
* 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)
* Implemented the news fetch / update policy code, as configurated on
/configupdate.jsp. Defaults are to grab the news every 24h (or if it
doesn't exist yet, on startup). No action is taken however, though if
the news.xml specifies that a new release is available, an option to
update will be shown on the router console.
* New initialNews.xml delivered with new installs, and moved news.xml out
of the i2pwww module and into the i2p module so that we can bundle it
within each update.
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.
* Only build new extra tunnels on failure if we don't have enough
* Fix a fencepost in the tunnel building so that e.g. a variance of
2 means +/- 2, not +/- 1 (thanks dm!)
* Avoid an NPE on client disconnect
* Never select a shitlisted peer to participate in a tunnel
* Have netDb store messages timeout after 10s, not the full 60s (duh)
* Keep session tags around for a little longer, just in case (grr)
* Cleaned up some closing event issues on the streaming lib
* Stop bundling the jetty 5.1.2 and updated wrapper.config in the update
so that 0.4.* users will need to do a clean install, but we don't need
to shove an additional 2MB in each update to those already on 0.5.
* Imported the susimail css (oops, thanks susi!)
* (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++).
* Added meaningful support for adjusting the preferred message size in the
streaming lib by setting the i2p.streaming.maxMessageSize=32768 (or
whatever). The other side will mimic a reduction (but never an increase).
* Always make sure to use distinct ConnectionOption objects for each
connection (duh)
* Reduced the default ACK delay to 500ms on in the streaming lib
* Only shrink the streaming window once per window
* Don't bundle a new jetty.xml with updates
* Catch another local routerInfo corruption issue on startup.
* Integrated latest addressbook changes (2.0.3) which include support for
deploying as a .war file with no existing addressbook configuration.
* Updated main build process to bundle the addressbook.war in the
i2pinstall.jar and i2pupdate.zip.
* Imported Ragnarok's addressbook source (2.0.2) which is built but not
deployed in the i2pinstall.jar/i2pupdate.zip (yet).
* Don't treat connection inactivity closure as a connection error.
* Toss in a small pool of threads (3) to execute the events queued up with
the SimpleTimer, as we do currently see the occational event
notification spiking up to a second or so.
* Implement a SAM client API in java, useful for event based streaming (or
for testing the SAM bridge)
* Added support to shut down the SAM bridge on OOM (useful if the SAM
bridge is being run outside of the router).
* Include the SAM test code in the sam.jar
* Remove an irrelevent warning message from SAM, which was caused by
perfectly normal operation due to a session being closed.
* Removed some unnecessary synchronization in the streaming lib's
PacketQueue
* More quickly clean up the memory used by the streaming lib by
immediately killing each packet's resend job as soon as it is ACKed (or
cancelled), so that there are no longer any valid pointers to the
(potentially 32KB) packet.
* Fixed the timestamps dumped to stdout when debugging the PacketHandler.
* Drop packets that would expand our inbound window beyond our maximum
buffer size (default 32 messages)
* Always read the ACK/NACK data from the verified packets received, even
if we are going to drop them
* Always adjust the window when there are messages ACKed, though do not
change its size except as before.
* Streamlined some synchronization in the router's I2CP handling
* Streamlined some memory allocation in the SAM bridge
* Default the streaming lib to disconnect on inactivity, rather than send
an empty message.
this still doesnt get the BT to where it needs to be, or fix the timeout problem,
but i dont like having so many commits outstanding and these updates are sound
* 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)
------------------------------------------------
* Expose a drop down on the /configclients.jsp to enter the outbound
tunnel depth.
* Improved *hosts.txt loading
* Explicitly override the JVM's timezone settings to use GMT so that
any client applications which use timezones won't leak sensitive
data (thanks gott!)
* Bundle sam.jar in the update (thanks duck!)
* 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)
* 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
up and debug in the new tcp transport, but it all works, and i dont like having big changes
sitting on my local machine (and there's no real need for branching atm)
2004-09-26 jrandom
* Complete rewrite of the TCP transport with IP autodetection and
low CPU overhead reconnections. More concise connectivity errors
are listed on the /oldconsole.jsp as well. The IP autodetection works
by listening to the first person who tells you what your IP address is
when you have not defined one yourself and you have no other TCP
connections.
* Update to the I2NP message format to add transparent verification at
the I2NP level (beyond standard TCP verification).
* Remove a potential weakness in our AESEngine's safeEncrypt and safeDecrypt
implementation (rather than verifying with E(H(key)), we now verify with
E(H(iv))).
* The above changes are NOT BACKWARDS COMPATIBLE.
* Removed all of the old unused PHTTP code.
* Refactor various methods and clean up some javadoc.
* Refactor the TCP transport to deal with changing identities gracefully,
and to prevent some wasted effort by keeping track of what host+port
combinations we are connected to (rather than just the identities). Also
catch a few configuration errors earlier.
* Removed no longer relevent methods from the Transport API that were
exposing ideas that probably shouldn't be exposed.
* Removed the 0.4.0.1 specific files from i2pupdate.zip (relating to script
updates)
2004-09-08 jrandom
* Updated the "Active:" peer count to display the # of connections as well
as the number of recently active router identities.
* Implement some basic updating code - on startup, if there is a file named
"i2pupdate.zip" in the I2P installation directory, extract it, delete it,
then restart.
* Added an ugly little script to allow launching the router on win9x
machines without a dos box (using javaw to run a .bat file).
* Logging updates.
* Updated VERSION constants to 0.4.0.1
hopefully any other affected *nix systems) now properly discards non-
essential directories after installation.
* Support for Win9x in the installer and postinstall.bat.
* Changed the name of the default installation directory on all platforms
from "I2P" to "i2p" in the installer.
* Changed "wrapper.conf" to "wrapper.config" for naming consistency with the
other configuration files.
* Disable the timestamper by default for all applications except the router
(enable via -Dtime.disabled=false)
* Simplify the retrieval of the full destination with text based browsers.
* Bundle the updated wrapper.config and hosts.txt in the i2pupdate.tar.bz2
* Added some basic guards to prevent multiple instances from running.
Specifically, a file "router.ping" in the install directory which is
written to once a minute - if that file exists and has been modified
within the last minute, refuse to start up. In turn, adjust the
service wrapper to wait a minute before restarting a crashed JVM.
* Create a "work" directory in the I2P install dir which Jetty will
use for all of its temporary files.
* Tell the browser not to cache most of the router console's pages.
* Bugfix: Installer launches postinstall.bat on WinNT/2K properly.
* Temporarily removed install_i2p_service_unix and
uninstall_i2p_service_unix from distribution packages.
* postinstall.bat/postinstall.sh cleans installation directory of all files
not applicable to the host OS.
* Cleaned up the base build.xml, adding a new target ("updater") which
builds the file i2pupdate.tar.bz2 which can be safely extracted over
existing installs.
