## 2021-03-31 v0.9
Release highlights:
- Support for Peer Exchange (PX) when a peer prunes a [`11/WAKU2-RELAY`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/11/) mesh due to oversubscription. This can significantly increase mesh stability.
- Improved start-up times through managing the size of the underlying persistent message storage.
- New websocket connections are no longer blocked due to parsing failures in other connections.
The full list of changes is below.
### Features
- Support for bootstrapping [`33/WAKU-DISCV5`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/33) via [DNS discovery](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/10/#discovery-methods)
- Support for GossipSub [Peer Exchange](https://github.com/libp2p/specs/blob/master/pubsub/gossipsub/gossipsub-v1.1.md#prune-backoff-and-peer-exchange)
- Support for TOML config files via `--config-file=<path/to/config.toml>`
### Changes
- Waku v1 <> v2 bridge now supports DNS `multiaddrs`
- Waku v1 <> v2 bridge now validates content topics before attempting to bridge a message from Waku v2 to Waku v1
- Persistent message storage now auto deletes messages once over specified `--store-capacity`. This can significantly improve node start-up times.
- Renamed Waku v1 <> v2 bridge `make` target and binary to `wakubridge`
- Increased `store` logging to assist with debugging
- Increased `rln-relay` logging to assist with debugging
- Message metrics no longer include the content topic as a dimension to keep Prometheus metric cardinality under control
- Waku v2 `toy-chat` application now sets the sender timestamp when creating messages
- The type of the `proof` field of the `WakuMessage` is changed to `RateLimitProof`
- Added method to the JSON-RPC API that returns the git tag and commit hash of the binary
- The node's ENR is now included in the JSON-RPC API response when requesting node info
### Fixes
- Fixed incorrect conversion of seconds to nanosecond timestamps
- Fixed store queries blocking due to failure in resource clean up
- Fixed underlying issue where new websocket connections are blocked due to parsing failures in other connections
- Fixed failure to log the ENR necessary for a discv5 connection to the node
### Docs
- Added [RAM requirements](https://github.com/status-im/nim-waku/tree/ee96705c7fbe4063b780ac43b7edee2f6c4e351b/waku/v2#wakunode) to `wakunode2` build instructions

### Fixes
- Conversion between topics for the Waku v1 <-> v2 bridge now follows the [RFC recommendation](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/23/).
- Fixed field order of `HistoryResponse` protobuf message: the field numbers of the `HistoryResponse` are shifted up by one to match up the [13/WAKU2-STORE](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/13/) specs.

## 2021-05-11 v0.3
This release contains the following:
### Features
- Start of [`RLN relay` implementation](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/17/)
- Start of [`swap` implementation](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/18/)
- Start of [fault-tolerant `store` implementation](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/21/)
- Initial [`bridge` implementation](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/15/) between Waku v1 and v2 protocols
- Initial [`lightpush` implementation](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/19/)
- A peer manager for `relay`, `filter`, `store` and `swap` peers
- Persistent storage for peers: A node with this feature enabled will now attempt to reconnect to `relay` peers after a restart. It will respect the gossipsub [PRUNE backoff](https://github.com/libp2p/specs/blob/master/pubsub/gossipsub/gossipsub-v1.1.md#prune-backoff-and-peer-exchange) period before attempting to do so.
- `--persist-peers` CLI option to persist peers in local storage
- `--persist-messages` CLI option to store historical messages locally
- `--keep-alive` CLI option to maintain a stable connection to `relay` peers on idle topics
- A CLI chat application ([`chat2`](https://github.com/status-im/nim-waku/blob/master/docs/tutorial/chat2.md)) over Waku v2 with [bridging to matterbridge](https://github.com/status-im/nim-waku/blob/master/docs/tutorial/chat2.md#bridge-messages-between-chat2-and-matterbridge)
### Changes
- Enable `swap` protocol by default and improve logging
#### General refactoring
- Split out `waku_types` types into the right place; create `utils` folder.
- Change type of `contentTopic` in [`ContentFilter`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/12/#protobuf) to `string`.
- Replace sequence of `contentTopics` in [`ContentFilter`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/12/#protobuf) with a single `contentTopic`.
- Add `timestamp` field to [`WakuMessage`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/14/#payloads).
- Ensure CLI config parameters use a consistent naming scheme. Summary of changes [here](https://github.com/status-im/nim-waku/pull/543).
#### Docs
Several clarifications and additions aimed at contributors, including
- information on [how to query Status test fleet](https://github.com/status-im/nim-waku/blob/master/docs/faq.md) for node addresses,
- [how to view logs](https://github.com/status-im/nim-waku/blob/master/docs/contributors/cluster-logs.md), and
- [how to update submodules](https://github.com/status-im/nim-waku/blob/master/docs/contributors/git-submodules.md).
#### Schema
- Add `Message` table to the persistent message store. This table replaces the old `messages` table. It has two additional columns, namely
- `pubsubTopic`, and
- `version`.
- Add `Peer` table for persistent peer storage.
#### API
- [JSON-RPC Admin API](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/16): Added a [`post` method](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/16/#post_waku_v2_admin_v1_peers) to connect to peers on an ad-hoc basis.
- [Nim API](https://github.com/status-im/nim-waku/blob/master/docs/api/v2/node.md): PubSub topic `subscribe` and `unsubscribe` no longer returns a future (removed `async` designation).
- [`HistoryQuery`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/13/#historyquery): Added `pubsubTopic` field. Message history can now be filtered and queried based on the `pubsubTopic`.
- [`HistoryQuery`](https://rfc.vac.dev/spec/13/#historyquery): Added support for querying a time window by specifying start and end times.
### Fixes
- Running nodes can now be shut down gracefully
- Content filtering now works on any PubSub topic and not just the `waku` default.
- Nodes can now mount protocols without supporting `relay` as a capability
The [Waku v2 suite of protocols](https://rfc.vac.dev/) are still in a raw/draft state.
This release supports the following [libp2p protocols](https://docs.libp2p.io/concepts/protocols/):

## 2021-01-05 v0.2
This release contains the following changes:
- Calls to `publish` a message on `wakunode2` now `await` instead of `discard` dispatched [`WakuRelay`](https://github.com/vacp2p/specs/blob/master/specs/waku/v2/waku-relay.md) procedures.
- [`StrictNoSign`](https://github.com/libp2p/specs/tree/master/pubsub#message-signing) enabled.
- Add JSON-RPC API for external access to `wakunode2` functionality:
- Admin API retrieves information about peers registered on the `wakunode2`.
- Debug API exposes debug information about a `wakunode2`.
- Filter API saves bandwidth by allowing light nodes to filter for specific content.
- Private API enables symmetric or asymmetric cryptography to encrypt/decrypt message payloads.
- Relay API allows basic pub/sub functionality.
- Store API retrieves historical messages.
- Add tutorial on how to use JSON-RPC API.
- Refactor: Move `waku_filter` protocol into its own module.
The Waku v2 implementation, and [most protocols it consist of](https://specs.vac.dev/specs/waku/),
are still in a draft/beta state. The Waku v1 implementation is stable but not under active development.
## 2020-11-30 v0.1
Initial beta release.
This release contains:
- A Nim implementation of the [Waku v1 protocol](https://specs.vac.dev/waku/waku.html).
- A Nim implementation of the [Waku v2 protocol](https://specs.vac.dev/specs/waku/v2/waku-v2.html).
- CLI applications `wakunode` and `wakunode2` that allows you to run a Waku v1 or v2 node.
- Examples of Waku v1 and v2 usage.
- Various tests of above.
Currenty the Waku v2 implementation, and [most protocols it consist of](https://specs.vac.dev/specs/waku/),
are in a draft/beta state. The Waku v1 implementation is stable but not under active development.
