-Congratulations on getting I2P installed!
+
-I2P version 0.7.5 foremost addresses network stability issues -by adjusting how exploratory tunnels are built if a router nears -its connection limit, and also by distinguishing between -connected peers and other non-failing peers while picking them -for inclusion in tunnels. +I2P version 0.7.6 contains additional fixes for network stability issues +related to tunnel building and connection limits. +While the 0.7.5 release greatly improved the congestion that +appeared UTC evenings and weekends, it was not eliminated; +this release should improve the situation further.
-This version also delivers fixes to installer behaviour on Windows, -to the Router Console, NTCP transport and UPnP mechanism. +This version also has new console themes by dr|z3d, +which may be selected on the new UI configuration page. +Sorry, the new themes are not available for IE browsers.
-Additionally, version 0.7.5 changes the "news.xml" file location -where I2P routers check whether a new version is available. -Instead of the old URL (http://complication.i2p/news.xml) -a new location (http://echelon.i2p./news.xml) will be used. -If your router uses default updater settings, it will start using -the new URL automatically. If not, you will need to visit -configupdate.jsp, and change it manually. -For a while after this update, the old news.xml location will also -redirect all HTTP requests to the new one. +The default tunnel length variance is changed from 1 to 0. +This mainly affects exploratory tunnels and iMule. +As explained on zzz.i2p, +a non-zero variance adds very little protection, at great cost +in resources. +Should you wish to reconfigure your exploratory settings back to the old variance of 1, +or change to length 3 variance 0, +you may do so on the config tunnels page. +iMule settings are best changed within that application.
-Finally, since Complication is withdrawing from the I2P project, -to make some far-reaching changes in his life, this update removes -Complication's public key from the list of release signing keys. -You should expect the next release to be signed by zzz instead. -If you have non-default updater settings, you may want to remove -Complication's public key manually, by visiting configupdate.jsp, -and removing the key line starting with the characters "JHFA". -If you wish to verify whether this information is correct, -please check the GPG-signed release announcement. +I2P now stores temporary data in the system temp directory +(generally /var/tmp on Linux and %TEMP% on Windows). +For new installs only, +user data is in $HOME/.i2p on Linux/Mac and +%APPDATA%\I2P on Windows. +
+The release contains several changes to reduce resource usage +(memory, CPU, and connections) and the usual assortment of bug fixes. +Upgrading is recommended. +
+This is the first release built and signed by zzz. +Thanks again to Complication for his many contributions to the project +over the past five years. +I2P is undergoing the most rapid development in years. Please give the +developers feedback on IRC #i2p or forum.i2p +and get involved!
