| 2 | ----------------- |
| 3 | |

| 6 | Changes since version 0.3.3: |
| 7 | |
| 8 | New features: |
| 9 | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ |
| 10 | |
| 11 | - Boolean Face property IsOnDemand has been replaced with multistate FacePersistency |
| 12 | property (:issue:`2989`, :issue:`3018`): persistent (Face exists as long as there are no |
| 13 | system or socket errors), on-demand (Face is removed after inactivity period), and |
| 14 | permanent (Face exists unless explicitly destroyed by the management). |
| 15 | |
| 16 | Currently, only UDP faces are allowed to be permanent. However, management interface to |
| 17 | create UDP permanent faces or switch UDP to permanent state will be available in the |
| 18 | next release (:issue:`2991`). |
| 19 | |
| 20 | - Least Recently Used policy for Content Store (:issue:`2219`) |
| 21 | |
| 22 | Currently, changing the policy requires a minor change in NFD source code. |
| 23 | Configuration interface is coming in the next release (:issue:`3148`) |
