-<h3>2013-08-10: <b>0.9.7.1 <a href="http://www.i2p2.i2p/release-0.9.7.1.html">Released</a></b></h3>
-
-<p>This unscheduled release disables the RouterInfo verification messages that were used in the
-<a href="http://wwwcip.informatik.uni-erlangen.de/~spjsschl/i2p.pdf">UCSB "practical attacks" paper</a>,
-which should make correlating a LeaseSet and a Router much more difficult.
-We have also included a limited number of other fixes listed below.
-Our 0.9.8 release, which will include IPv6 support, is still on-schedule for late September.
-As usual, we recommend that all users update to this release.
+<h3>2013-09-30: <b>0.9.8 <a href="http://www.i2p2.i2p/release-0.9.8.html">Released</a></b></h3>
+
+<p>0.9.8 includes the long-awaited support for IPv6. It's enabled by default, 
+but of course you need a public IPv6 address to use it. Configuration is on the 
+"network" configuration tab in your console.
+We also have anonymity improvements including padding of SSU packets and 
+longer router private keys.</p>
+
+<p>If you have a public IPv6 address 
+and you are connecting to another router with a published IPv6 address, it will 
+connect via IPv6. There is a new IPv6 configuration section on <a href="/confignet">/confignet</a>.
+If IPv6 is causing problems you may disable it there.</p>
+
+<p>For those of you running I2P on faster hardware (generally, 64-bit x86) the 
+router will generate a new identity using longer keys. This will substantially 
+reduce your participating traffic for 48 hours or more, while your router 
+re-integrates into the network. Due to the new keys, the large number of 
+torrent updates, and the recent network growth, we expect substantial 
+disruption to the network for a week or more after the update is released. 
+Please be patient and things should start to improve after a few days.</p>
+
+<p>We are experiencing rapid network growth in the last few weeks, which is 
+causing a bit of a bumpy ride for some, especially on weekends. The 
+network is still performing fairly well, so keep spreading the word.
+See the <a href="http://www.i2p2.i2p/release-0.9.8.html">release notes</a>
+for more information on IPv6 and rekeying, and
+please report any bugs on 
+<a href="http://trac.i2p2.i2p/report/1">trac.i2p2.i2p</a>.
