== GNU ZRTP 1.4.5 ==
Modify the Hello repeat timer handling to accomodate slow connections and/or slow devices. Fix a problem when the other party sends only ZRTP packets at the beginning of a RTP session. === Interface changes in 1.4.5 === No external interfaces were changed, external API and ABI remain stable. Internal interface modifications only to implement Ping/PingAck handling. == GNU ZRTP 1.4.4 == Implement the Ping/PingAck packets and associated protocol extensions as defined in [http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-zimmermann-avt-zrtp-15]. === Interface changes in 1.4.4 === No external interfaces were changed, external API and ABI remain stable. Internal interface modifications only to implement Ping/PingAck handling. == GNU ZRTP 1.4.2 == Introduce the Key Derivation Function (KDF) as defined in [http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-zimmermann-avt-zrtp-12]. The ZRTP protocol version was updated to 1.10. === Interface changes in 1.4.2 === No interfaces were changed, API and ABI remain stable. == GNU ZRTP 1.4.0 == This is the first release that is conformant to the ZRTP specification that eventually will become a RFC. See: [http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-zimmermann-avt-zrtp-10] The ZRTP protocol version was updated to 1.00. === Interface changes in 1.4.0 === The ZrtpQueue and ZRtp classes implement a new method to get the other party's ZID (ZRTP identifier). An application, for example a SIP or XMPP client, may use this method to get the other party's ZID and store it together in a contact list. This enable the application to check the ZID if the user calls the other party again. A client shall implement such a feature to enhance security if user's don't compare the SAS on every call after they confirmed a SAS once. Clients must be compiled and linked with the new library. == GNU ZRTP 1.3.1 == This is an update to version 1.3.0 and implements the ZRTP multi-stream mode handshake. The ZRTP protocl version was updated to 0.90 and interoperability tests using the latest Zfone build and Zfone Beta (dated September 6, 2008) were successful. No changes in the external API and ABI with respect to 1.3.0 - thus no recompile or rebuild of clients are necessary if they use 1.3.0. To checkout version 1.3.1 specify revision 494 (-r 494). == GNU ZRTP 1.3.0 == This version is and update to version 1.1.0 an implements the latest changes define in the ZRTP draft. The changes resulted in an update of the API, therefore existing applications must be recompiled. This version of GNU ZRTP is compatible to and was tested to work with the latest Zfone beta (dated June, 10, see Zfone project site). Only in one specific error case is a slight incompatibility that will be fixed with the next Zfone beta. This incompatibility results in a severe error information at the client. The error only happens if someone modified the first retained shared secret entry in the retained secret cache, for example disk/storage read error. This is a very unlikely situation. === Interface changes in Version 1.3.0 === The Method ''setSipsSecret(...)'' is no longer available. ZRTP does not support this additional secret anymore. The method ''setOtherSecret(...)'' was renamed to ''setPbxSecret(...)'' to reflect the modification in the draft. The methos ''setSrtpsSecret(...)'' is was renamed to ''setAuxSecret(...)'' to reflect the modification in the draft. == GNU ZRTP 1.1.0 == GNU ZRTP 1.1.0 implements the basic ZRTP as specificied in the document ''draft-zimmermann-avt-zrtp-06x''. You may access this at this URL: [http://zfoneproject.com/zrtp_ietf.html] This version of GNU ZRTP does not support the additiona featur of ZRTP such as Multi-stream mode, Pre-shared mode, PBX enrollement, and SAS Signature. However, to keep the external interface as stable as possible I already implmented stubs for the additional features. Some later versions may have these features implemented, depending if they are required by the community. The current version of GNU ZRTP is compatible and was tested to work with the latest Zfone beta (dated April, 2nd) (see Zfone project site). === Interface changes == The ''SymmetricZRTPSession'' implements some new methods to control ZRTP and its new features. An application usually uses only a few methods to setup GNU ZRTP. All others are optional and an application may use them only if it requires a special feature (which are not yet implemented :-) ). The ''ZrtpUserCallback'' class was modified as well. From an application's point of view * The methods in ''ZrtpUserCallback'' are not pure virtual anymore but just virtual and have a default implementation, usually a simple return. An application may extend this class and overwrite only those methods it requires. * Change of the constructor - remove the queue parameter thus we have a very simple standard constructor. This modifcation may requires a small change in the application or class that uses or extends ''ZrtpUserCallback''. * The method showSAS has an additional parameter: showSAS(std::string sas, bool verified); the verified flag is set to true in SAS is verified, false if not verified. This allows a more flexible support to display the SAS even if SAS is verified. Formerly ZRTP did not call "showSAS()" if SAS was verified. Now ZRTP always calls showSAS and provides the verification information explicitly. * The siganture of the following user callback methods was changed: showMessage(GnuZrtpCodes::MessageSeverity sev, int32_t subCode) zrtpNegotiationFailed(GnuZrtpCodes::MessageSeverity severity, int32_t subCode) The GNU ZRTP core and the ZRTP ccRTP extension do not contain message strings anymore. Both use codes to inform an application about events, problems or failure. The folder ''demo'' contains a small demo program that shows one way how to map the codes to strings. Delegating string handling and formating to the application simplifies internationalization etc. Plaese note: some new callback methods and ''SymmetricZRTPSession'' methods are only stubs in the currect version. The real implementation (filling the stubs with real code) will be done some time later (see above about unsupported features). === Header files === The new version greatly reduces the number of header files installed in the include directory. In the new version I decoupled the internal header files and implementation from the external classes and interfaces an application requires. Only six header files are installed in GNU ZRTP's include directory (libzrtpcpp subdirectory in the usual include paths) == Demo program == The new folder ''demo'' contains a small demo program that shows various ways how to use GNU ZRTP to setup secure RTP (SRTP) sessions even without signaling protocols |
