This release brings a complete rewrite and update to the `rnid` utility, which is now a lot more useful, and better at finding and saving identities. It also includes a bunch of other improvements, such as expanded `rngit` functionality, better transport performance and a few bugfixes. Enjoy! Unless something really crazy happens, this will probably be the last release that is also published to GitHub, since everything can now run over Reticulum itself. Updates to `pip` will continue at least until `rnpkg` is complete, and RNS is completely self-hosting. **Changes** - Completely rewrote the `rnid` utility, **much** better now - Added ability to query network for raw identities to `rnid` - Added new, much more useful `rsg` file signature format - Added auto-retain functionality for used identities to `rnid` - Added outbound announce frequency per-client display to `rnstatus` - Added announce rate control settings display to `rnstatus` - Added announce rate control defaults configuration options - Added saner default announce rate settings for transport nodes - Added detection of Yggdrasil addresses to auto-connect handler - Added work document permissions resolver to `rngit` - Added ability to create updates and comments on `rngit` work documents - Added work document permissions control logic and CLI interaction to `rngit` - Added support for node-local URL-scoping in `rngit` markdown converter - Added API functionality for retaining identity data - Added the manual in markdown format - Improved `rngit` releases page rendering - Improved auto-connect logging - Improved transport performance - Improved logging performance - Improved shutdown handling - Improved workdoc sorting - Fixed time formatting being unintuitive sometimes - Fixed markdown-to-micron formatting and syntax highlighting being weird sometimes **Release Hashes** ``` e821a0b6a18d6b3263bbcdde880d0388fb4dd0c07c7eb2f83cb0dbc30eda5965 rns-1.2.4-py3-none-any.whl 618e823cec0bd368f2f211431dfb78efef75e59132bad93d3101dacbe7deb7a6 rnspure-1.2.4-py3-none-any.whl ``` **Release Signatures** Release artifacts include `rsg` signature files that can be validated against the RNS release signing identity `<bc7291552be7a58f361522990465165c>` using `rnid`. To verify files, download the `rsg` signatures, make sure they are in the same folder as the release artifact, and run `rnid` signature verification with the release identity as the required signer: ```sh rnid -i bc7291552be7a58f361522990465165c -V rns-1.2.4-py3-none-any.whl ``` The `rnid` utility will then verify the signatures, and display whether it is valid. If the signature cannot be verified, the file has been tampered with and should be thrown very far away in a jiffy. This is the first release using the new `rsg` signature format, and you will need this latest version of RNS to verify them. Ironic, I know, but that's how it is. Since release file hashes are now embbeded in the `rsg` signatures, this is the last release that will explicitly post the raw release hashes. Verifying with `rnid` is much more effective, since it ensures all data was signed by the release identity.
