   A full-node bitcoin implementation written in Go
 ============================================================================
 
+Changes in 0.7.0 (Thu Feb 20 2014)
+  - Fix an issue when parsing scripts which contain a multi-signature script
+    which require zero signatures such as testnet block
+    000000001881dccfeda317393c261f76d09e399e15e27d280e5368420f442632
+    (https://github.com/conformal/btcscript/issues/7)
+  - Add check to ensure all transactions accepted to mempool only contain
+    canonical data pushes (https://github.com/conformal/btcscript/issues/6)
+  - Fix an issue causing excessive memory consumption
+  - Significantly rework and improve the websocket notification system:
+    - Each client is now independent so slow clients no longer limit the
+      speed of other connected clients
+    - Potentially long-running operations such as rescans are now run in
+      their own handler and rate-limited to one operation at a time without
+      preventing simultaneous requests from the same client for the faster
+      requests or notifications
+    - A couple of scenarios which could cause shutdown to hang have been
+      resolved
+    - Update notifynewtx notifications to support all address types instead
+      of only pay-to-pubkey-hash
+    - Provide a --rpcmaxwebsockets option to allow limiting the number of
+      concurrent websocket clients
+    - Add a new websocket command notifyallnewtxs to request notifications
+      (https://github.com/conformal/btcd/issues/86) (thanks @flammit)
+  - Improve btcctl utility in the following ways:
+    - Add getnetworkhashps command
+    - Add gettransaction command (wallet-specific)
+    - Add signmessage command (wallet-specific)
+    - Update getwork command to accept 
+  - Continue cleanup and work on implementing the RPC API:
+    - Implement getnettotals command
+      (https://github.com/conformal/btcd/issues/84)
+    - Implement networkhashps command
+      (https://github.com/conformal/btcd/issues/87)
+    - Update getpeerinfo to always include syncnode field even when false
+    - Remove help addenda for getpeerinfo now that it supports all fields
+  - Close standard RPC connections on auth failure
+  - Provide a --rpcmaxclients option to allow limiting the number of
+    concurrent RPC clients (https://github.com/conformal/btcd/issues/68)
+  - Include IP address in RPC auth failure log messages
+  - Resolve a rather harmless data races found by the race detector
+    (https://github.com/conformal/btcd/issues/94)
+  - Increase block priority size and max standard transaction size to 50k
+    and 100k, respectively (https://github.com/conformal/btcd/issues/71)
+  - Add rate limiting of free transactions to the memory pool to prevent
+    penny flooding (https://github.com/conformal/btcd/issues/40)
+  - Provide a --logdir option (https://github.com/conformal/btcd/issues/95)
+  - Change the default log file path to include the network
+  - Add a new ScriptBuilder interface to btcscript to support creation of
+    custom scripts (https://github.com/conformal/btcscript/issues/5)
+  - General code cleanup
+
 Changes in 0.6.0 (Tue Feb 04 2014)
   - Fix an issue when parsing scripts which contain invalid signatures that
     caused a chain fork on block
