! 177: ......................................
! 178:
! 179: Beginning with the release of iperf 3.1, ESnet plans to support iperf3
! 180: in "maintenance mode". At this point, we have no definite plans for
! 181: further iperf3 releases, and ESnet will be providing a very limited
! 182: amount of resources for support and development, going forward.
! 183: However, ESnet could issue new iperf3 releases to deal with security
! 184: issues or high-impact bug fixes.
! 185:
! 186: Requests for support, enhancements, and questions should best be
! 187: directed to the iperf-dev mailing list. ESnet would be open to adding
! 188: project members/committers from the community, in case there are
! 189: developers who are interested in doing more active work with iperf3
! 190: and/or supporting the user base.

348: **Note:** Due to a mistake in the release process, the distribution tarball referred to above is actually not compressed, despite its ``.tar.gz`` extension. Instead it is an uncompressed tar archive. The file checksum is correct, as are the file contents.
349:
350: This version is a maintenance release that
351: fixes a number of bugs, many reported by users, adds a few minor
352: enhancements, and tracks the migration of the iperf3 project to
353: GitHub. Of particular interest:
354:
355: * Build / runtime fixes for CentOS 5, MacOS 10.9, and FreeBSD.
356:
357: * TCP snd_cwnd output on Linux in the default output format.
