Gemfile:
- Upgrade to Jekyll 3.x (3.0.1 tested). This brings several new
features I want to use, most notably *collections* which allows us
to add blog-like collections. I've converted the `_releases` and
`_alerts` pages into collections, although their plugins are
maintained to handle the Download and Active Alert features.
- Upgrade to latest Kramdown.
- Lock Less at 2.4.0. This prevents breaking our Less plugin. Jekyll
3.x provides native support for SCSS, so we may want to switch to
that in time.
- Lock HTML Proofer at 2.1.0. The most recent version was taking
forever to check our pages (I never actually got it to complete).
I'll look into it when I get more time.
Makefile:
- New `make clean` command. Jekyll 3.x by default attempts to do
incremental rebuilds. The new `jekyll clean` command cleans up the
metadata necessary for than so that a full build is performed, and
this new `make clean` command is a wrapper around it so that we
automatically do full rebuilds in the relevant cases. Note: our
plugins aren't fully compatible with the incremental rebuilds, but
I'd like to fix that in the future.
- Remove WEBrick hack to enable previewing with default URL paths (/
instead of /index.html).
- Filter out compliants from Rouge
README.md:
- Now that Alerts (_alerts) are part of a collection, the file names
are no longer parsed for dates, so instructions on adding the date
to the YAML metadata have been added.
_alerts/*:
- Now that alerts are part of a collection, the file names are no
longer parsed to provide dates, so a `date:` field has been added to
the YAML metadata.
_config.yml:
- Some variables renamed per upgrade instructions.
- Switched from old default syntax highlighter Pygments to new default
Rouge. I tried to use Rouge options to keep new output as similar
to old output as possible to making diffing easy, but Rouge adds
extra CSS class info.
- Move `_alerts` and `_releases` into Jekyll 3.x "collections", which
provide the organizational features we were using plugins to
manange. I haven't removed the old plugins because we still use
some of their features (alerts.rb provides active issue and banner
features; releases.rb provides info to Download page)
- _layouts/* can no longer provide default global metadata; that is now
provided in the new `defaults:` section in _config.yml.
_layouts/*:
- Default metadata can no longer be provided in the layout files for
collections, so I've removed it and left a message to see
_config.yml.
_plugins/*:
- Remove filter_for.rb. It's completely broken on Jekyll 3.x because
of changes to Liquid which prevent adding new arguments to the
inherited Liquid::For class. Existing uses of filter_for have been
migrated to built-in for loops prefaced by sorts.
- Remove remove-html-extension.rb: at it said in the comments, this
was a temporary hack to get us to Jekyll 3.0.
_releases/*:
- Rename all the files: prefix a v to the file name so the output html
(e.g. v10.0.0.html) is the same as the source filename (e.g.
v10.0.0.md). This is necessary to migrate them to a Jekyll collection.
- Remove %v from titles: we have to explicitly set the title, like we
used to. Again required for migration to collections.
_templates/events.html & en/rss/events.rss:
- Sort events by date and then loop with regular for loop rather than
filter_for
en/alerts.html & en/rss/alerts.rss:
- Sort alerts by date and then loop with regular for loop rather than
filter_for
en/bitcoin-core/index.md & en/version-history.html & en/rss/releases.rss:
- Sort alerts by date and then loop with regular for loop rather than
filter_for

title: Bitcoin-Qt version 0.8.3 released
|
|
---
|
|
Bitcoin-Qt version 0.8.3 is now available from:
|
|
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/bitcoin/files/Bitcoin/bitcoin-0.8.3/>
|
|
|
|
This is a maintenance release to fix a denial-of-service attack that
|
|
can cause nodes to crash.
|
|
|
|
Please report bugs using the issue tracker at github:
|
|
<https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues>

|
How to Upgrade
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait
|
|
until it has completely shut down (which might take a few minutes for older
|
|
versions), then run the installer (on Windows) or just copy over
|
|
/Applications/Bitcoin-Qt (on Mac) or bitcoind/bitcoin-qt (on Linux).
|
|
|
|
If you are upgrading from version 0.7.2 or earlier, the first time you
|
|
run 0.8.3 your blockchain files will be re-indexed, which will take
|
|
anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours, depending on the speed of
|
|
your machine.
|
|
|
|
0.8.3 Release notes
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
Truncate over-size messages to prevent a memory exhaustion attack.
|
|
|
|
Fix a regression that causes excessive re-writing of the `peers.dat` file.
|
|
|
|
0.8.2 Release notes
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
Fee Policy changes
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
The default fee for low-priority transactions is lowered from 0.0005 BTC
|
|
(for each 1,000 bytes in the transaction; an average transaction is
|
|
about 500 bytes) to 0.0001 BTC.
|
|
|
|
Payments (transaction outputs) of 0.543 times the minimum relay fee
|
|
(0.00005430 BTC) are now considered 'non-standard', because storing them
|
|
costs the network more than they are worth and spending them will usually
|
|
cost their owner more in transaction fees than they are worth.
|
|
|
|
Non-standard transactions are not relayed across the network, are not included
|
|
in blocks by most miners, and will not show up in your wallet until they are
|
|
included in a block.
|
|
|
|
The default fee policy can be overridden using the -mintxfee and -minrelaytxfee
|
|
command-line options, but note that we intend to replace the hard-coded fees
|
|
with code that automatically calculates and suggests appropriate fees in the
|
|
0.9 release and note that if you set a fee policy significantly different from
|
|
the rest of the network your transactions may never confirm.
|
|
