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

Bitcoin-Qt version 0.7.0 is now available for download at:
|
|
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/bitcoin/files/Bitcoin/bitcoin-0.7.0/>
|
|
|
|
We recommend that everybody running prior versions of bitcoind/Bitcoin-Qt
|
|
upgrade to this release, except for users running Mac OSX 10.5.
|
|
|
|
Please report bugs using the issue tracker at github:

Project source code is hosted at github; you can get
|
|
source-only tarballs/zipballs directly from there:
|
|

Ubuntu Linux users can use the "Personal Package Archive" (PPA)
|
|
maintained by Matt Corallo to automatically keep
|
|
bitcoin up-to-date. Just type
|
|
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:bitcoin/bitcoin
|
|
sudo apt-get update
|
|
in your terminal, then install the bitcoin-qt package:
|
|
sudo apt-get install bitcoin-qt
|
|
|
|
|
|
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 were running on Linux with a version that might have been compiled
|
|
with a different version of Berkeley DB (for example, if you were using the
|
|
PPA and are switching to the binary release), then run the old version again
|
|
with the -detachdb argument and shut it down; if you do not, then the new
|
|
version will not be able to read the database files and will exit with an error.
|
|
|
|
Incompatible Changes
|
|
--------------------
|
|
* Replaced the `getmemorypool` RPC command with `getblocktemplate/submitblock`
|
|
and `getrawmempool` commands.
|
|
* Remove deprecated RPC `getblocknumber`
|
|
|
|
Bitcoin Improvement Proposals implemented
|
|
-----------------------------------------
|
|
BIP 22 - `getblocktemplate`, `submitblock` RPCs
|
|
BIP 34 - block version 2, height in coinbase
|
|
BIP 35 - `mempool` message, extended `getdata` message behavior
|
|
|
|
|
|
Core bitcoin handling and blockchain database
|
|
---------------------------------------------
|
|
* Reduced CPU usage, by eliminating some redundant hash calculations
|
|
* Cache signature verifications, to eliminate redundant signature checks
|
|
* Transactions with zero-value outputs are considered non-standard
|
|
* Mining: when creating new blocks, sort 'paid' area by fee-per-kb
|
|
* Database: better validation of on-disk stored data
|
|
* Database: minor optimizations and reliability improvements
|
|
* -loadblock=FILE will import an external block file
|
|
* Additional DoS (denial-of-service) prevention measures
|
|
* New blockchain checkpoint at block 193,000
|
|
|
|
|
|
JSON-RPC API
|
|
------------
|
|
* Internal HTTP server is now thread-per-connection, rather than
|
|
a single-threaded queue that would stall on network I/O.
|
|
* Internal HTTP server supports HTTP/1.1, pipelined requests and
|
|
connection keep-alive.
|
|
* Support JSON-RPC 2.0 batches, to encapsulate multiple JSON-RPC requests
|
|
within a single HTTP request.
|
|
* IPv6 support
|
|
* Added raw transaction API. See https://gist.github.com/2839617
|
|
* Added `getrawmempool`, to list contents of TX memory pool
|
|
* Added `getpeerinfo`, to list data about each connected network peer
|
|
* Added `listaddressgroupings` for better coin control
|
|
* Rework getblock call.
|
|
* Remove deprecated RPC `getblocknumber`
|
|
* Remove superceded RPC `getmemorypool` (see BIP 22, above)
|
|
* listtransactions output now displays "smart" times for transactions,
|
|
and `blocktime` and `timereceived` fields were added
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
file containing peer address data.
|
|
* Lower default send buffer from 10MB to 1MB
|
|
* proxy: SOCKS5 by default
|
|
* Support connecting by hostnames passed to proxy
|
|
* Add -seednode connections, and use this instead of DNS seeds when proxied
|
|
* Added -externalip and -discover
|
|
* Add -onlynet to connect only to a given network (IPv4, IPv6, or Tor)
|
|
* Separate listening sockets, `-bind=<addr>`
