- The most significant new feature in this release is MDMF: "Medium-size Distributed Mutable Files". Unlike standard SDMF files, these provide efficient partial-access (reading and modifying small portions of the file instead of the whole thing). MDMF is opt-in (it is not yet the default format for mutable files), both to ensure compatibility with previous versions, and because the algorithm does not yet meet memory-usage goals. Enable it with ``--format=MDMF`` in the CLI (``tahoe put`` and ``tahoe mkdir``), or the "format" radioboxes in the web interface. See `<docs/specifications/mutable.rst>`_ for more details (`#393`_, `#1507`_) - A "blacklist" feature allows blocking access to specific files through a particular gateway. See the "Access Blacklist" section of `<docs/configuration.rst>`_ for more details. (`#1425`_) - A "drop-upload" feature has been added, which allows you to upload files to a Tahoe-LAFS directory just by writing them to a local directory. This feature is experimental and should not be relied on to store the only copy of valuable data. It is currently available only on Linux. See `<docs/frontends/drop-upload.rst>`_ for documentation. (`#1429`_) - The timeline of immutable downloads can be viewed using a zoomable and pannable JavaScript-based visualization. This is accessed using the 'timeline' link on the File Download Status page for the download, which can be reached from the Recent Uploads and Downloads page. |
