+{% trans -%}
+This release improves I2P by fixing bugs, removing unused code, and improving network stability.
+{%- endtrans %}
+
+{% trans -%}
+We have improved handling of congested routers in the network.
+Issues in UPnP and NAT traversal were addressed to improve connectivity and error reporting.
+We now have a more aggressive strategy for leaseset removal from the NetDb to improve router performance and mitigate overload.
+Other changes were implemented to reduce the observability of events like a router rebooting or shutting down.
+{%- endtrans %}
+
+{% trans -%}
+As usual, we recommend that you update to this release.
+The best way to maintain security and help the network is to run the latest release.
