After a long time working on this release, we’re proud to finally announce the release of Retroshare 0.6 !

Overview

The network paradigm has changed a little bit: Retroshare still offers the possibility to securely connect nodes using SSL links, authenticated by PGP signatures. But now, in addition, the users have the possibility to create pseudo-anonymous identities which can be used to sign forum posts, talk in chat lobbies, send distant messages, etc. This decorrelates the identities from the actual nodes of the Retroshare network.

We also took the opportunity to change a lot of low level protocols, and pushed a significant number of long waiting changes. As a result, the new 0.6 version is not compatible with the 0.5 version. That means you will need to upgrade your friends too if you want to keep them. Of course, the PGP keyrings and signatures stay, so your web of trust stays intact. In order to make the transition easy, we made it possible to use both Retroshare 0.5 and 0.6 on the same computer simultaneously. Linux executables and packages being 100% independent (except for the keyrings)

What hasn’t changed a bit is the rule of thumb: all the data that comes or leaves your node get through your trusted friends.
