+### 2025-05-15: RNS β 0.9.6
+
+This release activates AES-256 as the default encryption mode for all communication. It is the last release that will support the old AES-128 based modes, which will be entirely phased out in the next release.

+
+**Changes**
+- Enabled AES-256 as default encryption mode for all traffic
+- Added dynamic link keepalive and timeout calculation
+- Added ability to efficiently transfer files as responses in the `Request` API
+- Added ability to include metadata on `Resource` transfers
+- Added option to specify `Resource` auto-compression limits
+- Added option to specify `Request` response auto-compression limits
+- Added `Resource` transfer example
+- Added allow overwrite option to `rncp`
+- Improved hardware MTU auto-configuration
+- Improved handling of file transfers using the `Resource` API
+- Improved `Resource` transfer memory consumption
+- Improved memory consumption of applications connected to a shared instance
+- Improved `rncp` memory consumption for large files

+
+### 2025-05-09: RNS β 0.9.5
+
+This release initiates migration of Reticulum from AES-128 to AES-256 as the default link and packet cipher mode. It is a compatibility/migration release, that while supporting AES-256 doesn't use it by default. It will work with both the old AES-128 based modes, and the new AES-256 based modes. There's a very slight penalty in performance to support both the old and new modes at the same time, but only for single packet APIs (not links), and it really shouldn't be noticeable in any everyday use.
+
+In the next release, version `0.9.6`, Reticulum will transition fully to AES-256 and use it by default for all communications. That means that both single packets and links will use AES-256 by default. The old AES-128 link mode may or may not be available for a few releases, but will ultimately be phased out entirely.
+
+The update requires no intervention, configuration changes or anything similar from a users or developers perspective. Everything should simply work. This goes both for the `0.9.5` update, and the next `0.9.6` update that transitions fully to AES-256.
+
+**Changes**
+- Added support for AES-256 mode to links and packets
+- Added dynamic link mode support
+- Added temporary backwards compatibility for AES-128 link and packet modes
+- Added `get_mode()` method to link API
+- Added tests for all enabled link modes
+- Added `instance_name` option and description to default config file
+- Improved ratchet persist reliability if Reticulum is force killed while persisting ratchets
+- Fixed interface string representation for some interfaces
+- Fixed instance name config option being overwritten if option was not last in section
+- Fixed unhandled potential exception on fast-flapping `BackboneInterface` connections
+
+**Release Hashes**

+### 2025-04-15: RNS β 0.9.4
+
+This release significantly improves memory utilisation and performance. It also includes a few new features and general improvements to the included utilities and programs.
+
+**Changes**
+- Significantly improved memory utilisation, thread count and performance on nodes with many interfaces or clients
+- Switched local instance communication to run over abstract domain sockets on Linux and Android
+- Switched instance IPC to run over abstract domain sockets on Linux and Android
+- Added kernel event based I/O backend on Linux and Android
+- Added fast `BackboneInterface` type
+- Added support for XIAO-ESP32S3 to `rnodeconf`
+- Added interactive shell option to `rnsd`
+- Added API option to search for identity by identity hash
+- Added option to run TCP and Backbone interfaces in AP mode
+- Improved `RNodeMultiInterface` host communications specification
+- Improved `rncp` statistics output
+- Improved link and reverse-table culling
+- Fixed an occasional I/O thread hang on instance shutdown, that would result in an error printed to the console
+- Fixed various minor interface logging inconsistencies
+- Fixed various minor interface checking inconsistencies
+- Updated internal `configobj` implementation
+- Refactored various parts of the transport core code
+- Swicthed to using internal `netinfo` implementation instead of including full `ifaddr` library
+- Cleaned out unneeded dependencies

 ## Currently Active Work Areas
 For each release cycle of Reticulum, improvements and additions from the five [Primary Efforts](#primary-efforts) are selected as active work areas, and can be expected to be included in the upcoming releases within that cycle. While not entirely set in stone for each release cycle, they serve as a pointer of what to expect in the near future.
 
-- The current `0.8.x` release cycle aims at completing
-  - [ ] Hot-pluggable interface system
-  - [ ] External interface plugins
-  - [ ] Network-wide path balancing and multi-pathing
-  - [ ] Expanded hardware support
-  - [ ] Overhauling and updating the documentation
-  - [ ] Distributed Destination Naming System
-  - [ ] A standalone RNS Daemon app for Android
-  - [ ] Addding automatic retries to all use cases of the `Request` API
-  - [ ] Performance and memory optimisations of the Python reference implementation
-  - [ ] Fixing bugs discovered while operating Reticulum systems and applications
-
 ## Primary Efforts
 The development path for Reticulum is currently laid out in five distinct areas: *Comprehensibility*, *Universality*, *Functionality*, *Usability & Utility* and *Interfaceability*. Conceptualising the development of Reticulum into these areas serves to advance the implementation and work towards the Foundational Goals & Values of Reticulum.

 ### Universality
 These efforts seek to broaden the universality of the Reticulum software and hardware ecosystem by continously diversifying platform support, and by improving the overall availability and ease of deployment of the Reticulum stack.

 - A portable, high-performance Reticulum implementation in C/C++, see [#21](https://github.com/markqvist/Reticulum/discussions/21)
-- Performance and memory optimisations of the Python implementation
 - Bindings for other programming languages
 
 ### Functionality
 These efforts aim to expand and improve the core functionality and reliability of Reticulum.

+Hosting Public Entrypoints
+===========================================
+
+If you want to host a public (or private) entry-point to a Reticulum network over the
+Internet, this section offers some helpful pointers. You will need a machine, physical or
+virtual with a public IP address, that can be reached by other devices on the Internet.
+
+The most efficient and performant way to host a connectable entry-point supporting many
+users is to use the ``BackboneInterface``. This interface type is fully compatible with
+the ``TCPClientInterface`` and ``TCPServerInterface`` types, but much faster and uses
+less system resources, allowing your device to handle thousands of connections even on
+small systems.
+
+It is also important to set your connectable interface to ``gateway`` mode, since this
+will greatly improve network convergence time and path resolution for anyone connecting
+to your entry-point.
+
+.. code:: ini
+
+  # This example demonstrates a backbone interface
+  # configured for acting as a gateway for users to
+  # connect to either a public or private network
+
+  [[Public Gateway]]
+    type = BackboneInterface
+    enabled = yes
+    mode = gateway
+    listen_on = 0.0.0.0
+    port = 4242
+
+If instead you want to make a private entry-point from the Internet, you can use the
+:ref:`IFAC name and passphrase options<interfaces-options>` to secure your interface with a network name and passphrase.
+
+.. code:: ini
+
+  # A private entry-point requiring a pre-shared
+  # network name and passphrase to connect to.
+
+  [[Private Gateway]]
+    type = BackboneInterface
+    enabled = yes
+    mode = gateway
+    listen_on = 0.0.0.0
+    port = 4242
+    network_name = private_ret
+    passphrase = 2owjajquafIanPecAc
+
+If you are hosting an entry-point on an operating system that does not support
+``BackboneInterface``, you can use ``TCPServerInterface`` instead, although it will
+not be as performant.
