David A. Harding cbebe461ff Releases: Variablize Release Notes
Add additional variables to the release note files to allow setting the
version number and date.  The version number is required, and can be
used to automatically set the release notes title.  The date is optional
and can be set hours/days after the release.

Additionally, a Makefile test is added that checks whether the download
files exist on the Bitcoin.org server.  This can help prevent creating a
broken Download page.

* Set variables for all previous releases

* Document variables in README.md

* Update code and templates to use variables

* Add the Download page links to the "dl" CSS class. Also add newlines
  to make the HTML a bit easier to parse using sed

* Add a new Liquid plugin to print warnings. This is used to print a
  non-error warning if any release is created without the optional date

0.3.22 2011-06-05 Bitcoin version 0.3.22 released

Download URL: http://sourceforge.net/projects/bitcoin/files/Bitcoin/bitcoin-0.3.22/

This is largely a bugfix and TX fee schedule release. We also hope to make 0.3.23 a quick release, to fix problems that the network has seen due to explosive growth in the past week.

Notable changes:

  • Client will accept and relay TX's with 0.0005 BTC fee schedule (users still pay 0.01 BTC per kb, until next version)
  • Non-standard transactions accepted on testnet
  • Source code tree reorganized (prep for autotools build)
  • Remove "Generate Coins" option from GUI, and remove 4way SSE miner. Internal reference CPU miner remains available, but users are directed to external miners for best hash production.
  • IRC is overflowing. Client now bootstraps to channels #bitcoin00 - #bitcoin99
  • DNS names now may be used with -addnode, -connect (requires -dns to enable)

RPC changes:

  • listtransactions adds from param, for range queries
  • move may take account balances negative
  • settxfee added, to manually set TX fee

Recommendations: If you have trouble connecting to the network, try one or more of these techniques:

  • -dnsseed
  • -upnp, or forward port 8333 on your router
