Dear researchers and open-source contributors, I am writing this note with immense appreciation for your exceptional dedication and commitment to the project's development. Your collective brain trust and countless hours of hard work have culminated in the release of the new version, and I cannot express enough how thankful I am. After trying this new release for a few days, it is stable and allows the rest of us to do our own research. THANK YOU |

Press release
We are releasing version 4.9 of Contiki-NG. This release adds a new platform (gecko / efr32), and support
for link-time-optimization that can reduce the binary size up to 50% on some examples. Several security related fixes both for software security (e.g. more tests for argument issues) and protocol/communication security (avoiding buffer overruns, etc).
Various parts of the user experience for developers have been improved in this release:

API changes for ports outside the main tree
Cooja API changes for plugins outside the main tree
Update from JDOM 1 to JDOM 2
JDOM was upgraded from version 1 to version 2 (#784).
This requires some source code updates, but since Cooja uses such a small subset
of the JDOM API, the update can be done automatically with the command:
Avoid starting the AWT thread in headless mode
Cooja will no longer start plugins that extend
VisPlugin
in headless modeto avoid starting the AWT thread. Plugins that should run in both GUI mode
and headless mode need to be updated to keep the JInternalFrame internal.
Examples for PowerTracker and other plugins can be found in the PR
(#261).
