Release v0.1.25

Major Changes

• Actor-based client system enabled by default - Improves scalability and monitoring
• Set FREENET_ACTOR_CLIENTS=false to use legacy system if needed

Version Updates

• freenet: 0.1.25
• fdev: 0.3.3

Notes

The actor-based client management system has been thoroughly tested and is now the default. This provides:

• Better separation of concerns with RequestRouter for deduplication
• SessionActor for individual client management
• MessageProcessor for clean network-to-actor result routing
• Improved monitoring and scalability

Legacy client code will be removed in a future release.

🚨 Critical Fix

Fixed

• Critical: Fix channel closed crash that was causing nodes to unexpectedly exit (#1801)
  • Nodes would crash when connection notification channels were closed
  • Prevented proper error handling during connection failures
  • Now properly handles closed channels without propagating the error

Technical Details

• Improved error handling in P2P protocol connection notifications
• Uses inspect_err pattern for cleaner error logging
• Changed log level from debug to warn for connection failure notifications

This release fixes a critical bug that could cause node instability. All users are recommended to upgrade.
