<h2>Current Status<a class="headerlink" href="#current-status" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>Reticulum should currently be considered beta software. All core protocol features are implemented and functioning, but additions will probably occur as real-world use is explored. There will be bugs. The API and wire-format can be considered relatively stable at the moment, but could change if warranted.</p>

<div class="section" id="caveat-emptor">
<h2>Caveat Emptor<a class="headerlink" href="#caveat-emptor" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>Reticulum is experimental software, and should be considered as such. While it has been built with cryptography best-practices very foremost in mind, it has not been externally security audited, and there could very well be privacy-breaking bugs. To be considered secure, Reticulum needs a very thourough security review by independt cryptographers and security researchers. If you want to help out, or help sponsor an audit, please do get in touch.</p>
