  108: 
  109: A more extensive list of changes can always be found in the

  118: iperf3 downloads are now hosted on a new server at ESnet:
  119: 
  120: | URL:  http://downloads.es.net/pub/iperf/
  121: 
  122: Going forward, new releases will be made available in this directory.

  150: 
  151: **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.
  152: 
  153: This version is a maintenance release that
  154: fixes a number of bugs, many reported by users, adds a few minor
  155: enhancements, and tracks the migration of the iperf3 project to
  156: GitHub.  Of particular interest:
  157: 
  158: * Build / runtime fixes for CentOS 5, MacOS 10.9, and FreeBSD.
  159: 
  160: * TCP snd_cwnd output on Linux in the default output format.
  161: 
  162: * libiperf is now built as both a shared and static library; by
  163:   default, the iperf3 binary links to the shared library.
  164: 
  165: More information on changes can be found in the ``RELEASE_NOTES``
  166: file in the source distribution.

  180: 
  181: During development, there were various distributions of the source
  182: code unofficially released carrying a 3.0.0 version number.  Because

  184: was numbered 3.0.1.
