It is our pleasure to be releasing Test 16. Here are the main changes compared to Test 15:

Implement invitation-based account creation.

Add section update requests to make merges more stable.

Don’t approve new node if routing table is invalid.

Work around cases where OtherSectionMerge would not accumulate.

would not accumulate. Several fixes to tunnel nodes and peer manager.

Replace rustc-serialize with serde.

SAFE Vault v0.14.0

You can run only 1 Vault node per LAN – running more than 1 will result in this message:

More than 1 routing node found on LAN. Currently this is not supported"

Requirements

To pass the resource proof check, your upload bandwidth needs to be at least ~ 6 Mbps .

needs to be at least . Only people who either have a TCP port forwarded and specify it in their crust config file OR people who have UPnP enabled will be able to participate as a Vault. If you forwarded a TCP port on your router (see this website for more information on how to do this), you need to specify the port in the safe_vault.crust.config file (which is located in the same directory as the safe_vault binary) in the tcp_acceptor_port field.

SAFE Launcher v0.11.0

To connect to Test 16, you need to use SAFE Launcher v0.11.0.

Each client account is limited to 500 PUTs. A PUT is a request to store a single chunk on the network (a file may contain many chunks). The maximum chunk size is 1 MB.

Please be aware that we might need to restart this test network, wiping all data that is stored on it. We will announce this in a Dev Update (when possible) prior to taking it down.

Requirements

To create an account, you need to enter a valid invitation token. Invitation tokens can’t be reused.
