2007-06-29 -- Allmydata Tahoe v0.4 released!

This version adds encrypted, mutable directories, so that you can organize your files into directories, change the contents of directories, and share your directories with your friends, without thereby sharing your directories with anyone else -- not even with the owners of the servers that host your directories.

Please see the Release Notes.
