LXMF-rs v0.3.0-rc1 Release Notes

Date: 2026-06-10
Base commit: 5c08f4d87becce96e48b4ae2a15058d16e236f9c

This is a release candidate for the next LXMF-rs product and daemon bundle
release. It is intended for integration testing, operator validation, and
feedback before the final v0.3.0 release.

Scope

  • Usable Rust implementation of core Reticulum and LXMF behavior with repeatable
    compatibility evidence against pinned Python Reticulum and LXMF references.
  • GitHub binary bundle release for lxmd and reticulumd.
  • Not a claim of complete drop-in Python replacement parity. The maintained
    parity source of truth remains docs/status/current-roadmap.md.

Highlights Since v0.2.0

  • Expanded propagation peer and router behavior, including restored queue replay,
    unpeer cleanup, duplicate receive accounting, peer cost restoration, admission
    gates, and payload-backed peer queue snapshots.
  • Broader remote propagation sync, fetch, download, unpeer, and lifecycle
    accounting coverage.
  • Stronger Python compatibility coverage for peer sync, paper URI ingest, unknown
    handle behavior, and pinned reference interop.
  • Added and stabilized production interface work for AutoInterface, KISS, LoRa,
    RNode BLE, and VR-N76 KISS-over-BLE paths.
  • Added SDK and wrapper improvements, including contract/schema updates, Kotlin
    wrapper conformance, easier SDK examples, and ZeroMQ pipeline hardening.
  • Added embedded mini-node and embedded interface support surfaces.
  • Expanded CI, scheduled mesh/soak/HIL workflows, release readiness docs, and
    release bundle automation.

Current Version Train

GitHub release version: v0.3.0-rc1

Crate/package versions intentionally remain per the publish plan rather than one
blanket workspace version:

  • lxmf: 0.3.0
  • reticulum-rs-rpc: 0.3.0
  • lxmf-sdk: 0.2.1
  • lxmf-wire: 0.2.0
  • reticulum-rs-core: 0.2.0
  • reticulum-rs-transport: 0.2.0
  • app/tool crates remain unpublished and are distributed through GitHub bundles

Validation Record

Local RC gates for this release-prep branch:

  • cargo xtask ci: passed with LXMF_RS_BASH pointing to Git Bash.
  • cargo xtask ci --stage sdk-soak-check: passed.
  • cargo xtask ci --stage schema-client-check: passed.
  • cargo xtask schema-client-generate --check: passed.
  • cargo xtask publish-crates --wave all --dry-run --allow-dirty: passed
    through the release-tool fallback for unpublished local publish-wave
    dependencies.
  • cargo run -p rns-tools --bin rnx -- e2e --timeout-secs 20: passed.
  • cargo fmt --all -- --check: passed.
  • cargo xtask release-check: attempted after fixing the failing sub-gates, but
    the local Windows run exceeded the one-hour command timeout during the soak
    portion. The soak gate passed when rerun directly.

Known Limits

  • Propagation and operational substitutability are still marked partial in
    docs/status/current-roadmap.md.
  • Full Python surface parity is not achieved.
  • External-client compatibility claims for Sideband, MeshChatX, and Columba
    require separate external-client interop gate evidence.
  • Hardware and prepared-host evidence for all interface paths remains broader
    than the automated CI evidence.
