Changes 0.5.5a
* Notes
This is the final release of the 0.5 brand.
- distant chat (encrypted with AES-PSK using tunnels, autenticated with PGP)
- distant messages (encrypted, through tunnels)
=> See http://retroshareteam.wordpress.com/2013/08/08/distant-chat-and-messaging-using-generic-tunnels/
- connection progress/status dialog
- keyring cleaning dialog
- improved GUI (better layout, higher readability, protection agains xml bombs)
- many bug fixes in core
* Improvements
- Added connection progress dialog, to show connection state, and give some feedback/advice to the user
- added storage for denied connections in linkMgr
- new splash screen / about image
- improved GUI layout. Many patches, mainly from Phenom, electron
- GUI improvement for distant messages, showing correct names, handling links, correct toasters, etc
- improved security feed so that one can send distant messages to peers that attempt to connect
- improved command line parameter handling (used argstream class)
- Disabled setting "Start RetroShare when my system starts" on Windows when running the debug version.
- modified patch from AC to remove messages with security issues (e.g. Billion Laughs bomb). The message is
replaced by a warning, and is not forwarded
- Updated english translation
- Enabled distant messages. These need to be switched on the config->Messages. GUI improvements needs to be done,
such as properly setting peers names everywhere, but the service works. Have fun using it!
- updated values for min/normal partial packet size to 1MB in openpgp-sdk, so that we do not create partial packets
for everyday use. We will have to properly extend openpgp-sdk to support parsing of partial packets if we want to
PGP-encrypt chunks larger than 1MB
- patched RsCollection code to disallow crafted xml bombs
- plugged send message from security item to send distant messages
- added info about libssh-0.6.0rc1 in README.txt
- added argstream.h (with authorized modified licence) to handle parameter lines
- added Use As Direct Source in service permission dialog
- fixed OpenBSD compilation (Patch from Stefan Sperling)
- Removed rsiface and moved configuration options to RsServerConfig
- Fixed cipher list to "HIGH:!DSS:!aNULL:!3DES", which should disable the weak ones, no idea how to force it to
PFS (which it should use)
- fixed void * pointer maths.
- doubled data chunk for signature in chat links. Apparently some keys need more than 287 bytes
- added security checks against disk full in PGP keyring manager
- TokenQueue: fixed stop of TokenQueue polling when events are locked
- RsProtectedTimer: switched to faster poll when events are locked
- distant chat: added ACK system to make sure the secured tunnels for distant chat are actually working, before one starts using it.
- moved all files related to file transfer in gui/FileTransfer/
- renamed known people into keyring
- make friendlist fully resizable (Patch from phenom)
- added DynDNS to RS certificate link if available
- removed MT19937 random generator which is not used anymore. Changed N from 624 to 1024 to reduce cost
- improved completion for chat (Patch from Phenom)
- added help panels in MainWindow, to help beginners startup with the basic concepts.
- changed welcome message in broadcast chat
