Noteworthy changes in 0.8.0
- A simple media player has been added to the user interface to play received audio and video files without a third-party application.
- Multiple crashes and breaking issues have been fixed.
A detailed list of changes can be found in the ChangeLog.
Known Issues
- Chats still require a reliable connection between GNUnet peers. So this still depends on the upcoming NAT traversal to be used outside of local networks for most users (see #5710).
- File sharing via the FS service should work in a GNUnet single-user setup but a multi-user setup breaks it (see #7355)
- Mobile devices might come with multiple sensors per camera which doesn't get recogniced by the GStreamer pipeline. As soon as libcamera supports those devices, there will be changes to utilize that fixing this issue.
In addition to this list, you may also want to consult our bug tracker at bugs.gnunet.org.
messenger-cli 0.1.1
There's also a new release of the terminal application using the GNUnet Messenger service. But since that's only a release to provide compatibility with changes in its dependencies it is only a minor release without adding new features.
