The 0.9 release concludes over a year and a half of work on the 0.8.x series, in which we greatly improved the performance and security of the router, and the scalability of the network.

The 0.8.13 release contains several bug fixes and a couple of new features. We are pleased that the last release significantly improved performance, and the network is running well despite continued rapid growth.

The 0.8.12 release fixes several message corruption bugs, some present since 2005. It also contains a redesign of the router's congestion control, and continued optimization of CPU and memory usage.

Release 0.8.11 includes several more changes to reduce the number of router-to-router connections and increase connection and tunnel build capacity.

Release 0.8.10 includes two changes intended to reduce the number of router-to-router connections, and therefore improve tunnel build success rates and general reliability.

The 0.8.9 release has several performance improvements, and many changes to handle the continued rapid growth of the network.

itoopie and I2PControl are launching! I'm happy to announce that itoopie and I2PControl are available publicly.

I2P release 0.8.8 enables the new hosts.txt database to speed hostname lookups and store additional information on hostname entries.

I2P release 0.8.7 contains several upgrades to long-neglected components, including the Naming Services, graphing, the native CPU ID and BigInteger libraries, crypto implementations, and the wrapper.

I have been commissioned to contribute code to I2P during the summer of 2011, implementing a control protocol and a client for this protocol (similar to Vidalia for Tor).
