+Update details
+==============
+{%- endtrans %}
+
+{% trans -%}
+The changes in this release are much more noticeable than usual!
+We have refreshed the router console to make it easier to understand,
+improve accessibility and cross-browser support,
+and generally tidy things up.
+This is the first step in a longer-term plan to make the router console more user-friendly.
+We have also added torrent ratings and comments support to i2psnark.
+{%- endtrans %}
+
+{% trans -%}
+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.
