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

0.5.3 | 2012-03-14 | Bitcoin-Qt version 0.5.3 released |
Bitcoin-Qt version 0.5.3 is now available for download at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/bitcoin/files/Bitcoin/bitcoin-0.5.3/
This is a bugfix-only release based on 0.5.1. It also includes a few protocol updates.
Please report bugs using the issue tracker at GitHub: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues
PROTOCOL UPDATES
-
BIP 30: Introduce a new network rule: "a block is not valid if it contains a transaction whose hash already exists in the block chain, unless all that transaction's outputs were already spent before said block" beginning on March 15, 2012, 00:00 UTC.
-
On testnet, allow mining of min-difficulty blocks if 20 minutes have gone by without mining a regular-difficulty block. This is to make testing Bitcoin easier, and will not affect normal mode.
BUG FIXES
-
Limit the number of orphan transactions stored in memory, to prevent a potential denial-of-service attack by flooding orphan transactions. Also never store invalid transactions at all.
-
Fix possible buffer overflow on systems with very long application data paths. This is not exploitable.
-
Resolved multiple bugs preventing long-term unlocking of encrypted wallets (issue #922).
-
Only send local IP in "version" messages if it is globally routable (ie, not private), and try to get such an IP from UPnP if applicable.
-
Reannounce UPnP port forwards every 20 minutes, to workaround routers expiring old entries, and allow the -upnp option to override any stored setting.
-
Skip splash screen when -min is used, and fix Minimize to Tray function.
-
Do not blank "label" in Bitcoin-Qt "Send" tab, if the user has already entered something.
-
Correct various labels and messages.
-
Various memory leaks and potential null pointer deferences have been fixed.
-
Handle invalid Bitcoin URIs using "bitcoin://" instead of "bitcoin:".
-
Several shutdown issues have been fixed.
-
Revert to "global progress indication", as starting from zero every time was considered too confusing for many users.
-
Check that keys stored in the wallet are valid at startup, and if not, report corruption.
-
Enable accessible widgets on Windows, so that people with screen readers such as NVDA can make sense of it.
-
Various build fixes.
-
If no password is specified to bitcoind, recommend a secure password.
-
Automatically focus and scroll to new "Send coins" entries in Bitcoin-Qt.
-
Show a message box for --help on Windows, for Bitcoin-Qt.
-
Add missing "About Qt" menu option to show built-in Qt About dialog.
-
Don't show "-daemon" as an option for Bitcoin-Qt, since it isn't available.
-
Update hard-coded fallback seed nodes, choosing recent ones with long uptime and versions at least 0.4.0.
-
Add checkpoint at block 168,000.
