Highlights

Booster-bitswap is now available!

• booster-bitswap is a binary that runs alongside the boostd process, to serve retrievals over the Bitswap protocol, which is the data transfer protocol used in IPFS. This release provides tools for managing a bitswap service for serving retrievals.
• Note that there is currently no payment method mechanism in booster-bitswap; this endpoint is intended to serve free content.
• For storage providers that want to test out the new functionality, refer to #1036 and share your results and report any issues you have.

New storage deal proposal flags

• The new storage deal proposal flags adds configurability options to indexer announcements and storing unsealed copies of data. The current default storage deal protocol behaviors remain the same.
• SkipIPNIAnnounce: defaults to false. This flag enables storage clients to elect to not announce deal data to IPNI(InterPlanetary Network Indexer)
• RemoveUnsealedCopy: defaults to false. This flag enables storage clients to elect to not have an unsealed copy of their data stored
