Back in September we released Cwtch 1.13, the first version of Cwtch to be labelled as stable, and a major milestone in Cwtch development.
With the Cwtch interface now stable, we are in a position to begin a new phase in Cwtch development: a Path towards Hybrid Groups.

Today we are releasing Cwtch 1.13!
Cwtch is a communication application (and associated libraries) that uses Tor v3 Onion Services to establish surveillance resistant channels between people.
Cwtch 1.13 is the culmination of the last few years of effort by the Cwtch team, and is the first release that meets our bar to be labelled a Cwtch Stable release candidate.
We want to extend a huge thank you to everyone who helped Cwtch get this far.
