+I2P 2.9.0 is a maintenance release that includes bug fixes and work on new features.

+
+{% trans -%}
+Thread usage has been improved to improve the performance of the i2ptunnel system.
+NTCP2 has been improved to resist probing attacks.
+The notification system has been integrated into more applications to provide better feedback to users from I2PSnark and the other applications.
+Automatic floodfill enrollment has been fixed.
+Users may observe increased resource usage when acting as floodfill.
+If this is not desired, floodfill mode can be disabled on the /config page.

+A new global map feature is available in the console which shows the locations of routers in your view of the netDb.
+These are the peers that help your router build tunnels and provide services anonymously.

+
+{% trans -%}
+Work continues on implementing automatic bandwidth management for tunnels, the Datagram2 protocol, and Post-Quantum cryptography.
+In two releases, at 2.11.0, I2P will require Java 17.

+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.
