GNUnet is a framework for secure and anonymous peer-to-peer networking that does not use any centralized or otherwise trusted services. Currently, the framework offers censorship-resistant file-sharing, messaging, VPN, GNS (a decentralized version of DNS), and much more. GNUnet is currently developed by a worldwide group of independent free software developers. GNUnet is a GNU package (http://www.gnu.org/).
major feature: Add GNUNET_CONFIGURATION_set_value_float.
- util: Float configuration values are no longer locale-dependent, but instead must always be in LC_NUMERIC=C format.
- GNUNET_DISK_internal_file_handle_ changed to always return int.
- Reworkd ProjectData handling; Now required as input for various API calls.

GNUnet is built following a single-threaded event-driven model, as it is often the case with network applications. This is an optimal model for dealing with high concurrency scenarios, but can be problematic in other contexts (like, for example, graphical user interfaces, which normally have their own event loop). To accomplish its event-driven flow, GNUnet uses a scheduler. Once such a scheduler is started, it is not designed to be invoked by other threads, but can schedule only routines reque
