7094bf7970 Trim down the XP notice and say more about what we support.
The big notice at the top of the release note is not interesting
 to most users now and apparently comes across poorly to some.

Better to provide more information about what we do support.

e440ac7ef3 Introduce assumevalid setting to skip presumed valid scripts.
This disentangles the script validation skipping from checkpoints.

A new option is introduced "assumevalid" which specifies a block whos
 ancestors we assume all have valid scriptsigs and so we do not check
 them when they are also burried under the best header by two weeks
 worth of work.

Unlike checkpoints this has no influence on consensus unless you set
 it to a block with an invalid history.  Because of this it can be
 easily be updated without risk of influencing the network consensus.

This results in a massive IBD speedup.

This approach was independently recommended by Peter Todd and Luke-Jr
 since POW based signature skipping (see PR#9180) does not have the
 verifiable properties of a specific hash and may create bad incentives.

The downside is that, like checkpoints, the defaults bitrot and older
 releases will sync slower.  On the plus side users can provide their
 own value here, and if they set it to something crazy all that will
 happen is more time will be spend validating signatures.

Checkblocks and checklevel are also moved to the hidden debug options:
 Especially now that checkblocks has a low default there is little need
 to change these settings, and users frequently misunderstand them as
 influencing security or IBD speed.  By hiding them we offset the
 space added by this new option.

dd34570c45 doc: Improve windows build instructions using Linux subsystem
I did a build on a windows 10 laptop and took notes, and tried
to improve the document:

- It's the Linux subsystem for Windows, not the other way around.

- Split out dependencies: general ones, 64-bit, 32-bit. Remove the
  reference to `build-unix.md`, easy enough to be self-contained.

- Place 64-bit instructions first. 99% will want these.

- Installation instructions: recommend using `/` for prefix, same as we
  do on gitian builds. This will allow copying the files to a usable
  (from Windows) place using just `make DESTDIR=...`.

- Remove double spaces / consistent width reformatting.

fd46136dfa IBD check uses minimumchain work instead of checkpoints.
This introduces a 'minimum chain work' chainparam which is intended
 to be the known amount of work in the chain for the network at the
 time of software release.  If you don't have this much work, you're
 not yet caught up.

This is used instead of the count of blocks test from checkpoints.

This criteria is trivial to keep updated as there is no element of
subjectivity, trust, or position dependence to it. It is also a more
reliable metric of sync status than a block count.

3421e74601 Clarify listenonion
> This new feature is enabled by default if Bitcoin Core is listening, and a connection to Tor can be made. It can be configured with the -listenonion, -torcontrol and -torpassword settings. To show verbose debugging information, pass -debug=tor.

But it is correct to say that the feature is enabled *regardless* of whether a connection to Tor can be made.

I propose to clarify that so that users can eliminate these in their logs (when `listen=1` and no Tor).
And I think it's okay to clarify about the `listen` option, because on several occasions when I read this before I always assumed `listening` meant `server=1` which cost me a lot of time in troubleshooting.

The new Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) allows a user to run a bash shell directly on Windows in an Ubuntu based environment.  This can be used to cross-compile Bitcoin directly on Windows without the need for a separate Linux VM or Server.  The instructions included in this commit explain how to configure the environment and build Bitcoin Core using this new feature.

- All checked with OpenBSD 5.9, except for the clang part, I left this
  as-is for someone adventurous.

- Mention overriding resource limits, OpenBSD's default ulimit does not
  suffice for building Bitcoin Core with gcc 4.9.3.

Add error and range-checking parsers for unsigned 32 and 64 bit numbers.
The 32-bit variant is required for parsing sequence numbers from the
command line in `bitcoin-tx` (see #8164 for discussion). I've thrown in
the 64-bit variant as a bonus, as I'm sure it will be needed at some
point.

Also adds tests, and updates `developer-notes.md`.

391dff16fe Do not store Merkle branches in the wallet.
Assume that when a wallet transaction has a valid block hash and transaction position
in it, the transaction is actually there. We're already trusting wallet data in a
much more fundamental way anyway.

To prevent backward compatibility issues, a new record is used for storing the
block locator in the wallet. Old wallets will see a wallet file synchronized up
to the genesis block, and rescan automatically.

their authors are mentioned in contrib/debian/copyright due to

Clarifying offline build process using gbuild --url and noting it is not
done automatically.

At some point along the line, fully offline builds were no longer happening
when strictly following the release-process.md instructions.

We should ensure that users who might want to torify or build offline need
to take extra steps to remain offline.

Also, corrections to build process: including gverify examples for new builders.

It is unreasonable to ask to change the global package configuration
just to build a package. Not only that, this is potentially harmful to the system.

Also do a few punctuation fixes in REST-interface.md.

6e849b8309 Ideal release process for Windows detached signing
This is an ideal version of what the release process should look like,
making it more consistent with the OS X process. Some of the changes
described here would need to be made in the descriptors, which is somewhat
beyond what I would feel comfortable doing, not really understanding the signature process in depth.

d08cfc2bd7 gitian: add a gitian-win-signer descriptor
This is exactly like the current OSX signing process.

osslsigncode has been patched to detach and re-attach Windows signatures.
The changes can be seen here: https://github.com/theuni/osslsigncode/commits/attach-signature

There's a pull-request open upstream for the changes:
https://sourceforge.net/p/osslsigncode/osslsigncode/merge-requests/3/

This work has been back-ported to the stable 1.7.1 release of osslsigncode, so
that a smaller patch can be reviewed.

c110575a92 gitian: Use the new bitcoin-detached-sigs git repo for OSX signatures
Rather than fetching a signature.tar.gz from somewhere on the net, instruct
Gitian to use a signature from a tag in the bitcoin-detached-sigs repository
which corresponds to the tag of the release being built.

This changes detached-sig-apply.sh to take a dirname rather than a tarball as
an argument, though detached-sig-create.sh still outputs a tarball for
convenience.

af82884ab7 Add "warmup mode" for RPC server.
Start the RPC server before doing all the (expensive) startup
initialisations like loading the block index.  Until the node is ready,
return all calls immediately with a new error signalling "in warmup"
with an appropriate status message (similar to the init message).

This is useful for RPC clients to know that the server is there (e. g.,
they don't have to start it) but not yet available.  It is used in
Namecoin and Huntercoin already for some time, and there exists a UI
hooked onto the RPC interface that actively uses this to its advantage.

Use fee/priority estimates in wallet CreateTransaction
The wallet now uses the mempool fee estimator with a new
command-line option: -txconfirmtarget (default: 1) instead
of using hard-coded fees or priorities.

A new bitcoind that hasn't seen enough transactions to estimate
will fall back to the old hard-coded minimum priority or
transaction fee.

-paytxfee option overrides -txconfirmtarget.

Relaying and mining code isn't changed.

For Qt, the coin control dialog now uses priority estimates to
label transaction priority (instead of hard-coded constants);
unspent outputs were consistently labeled with a much higher
priority than is justified by the free transactions actually
being accepted into blocks.

I did not implement any GUI for setting -txconfirmtarget; I would
suggest getting rid of the "Pay transaction fee" GUI and replace
it with either "target number of confirmations" or maybe
a "faster confirmation <--> lower fee" slider or select box.

Mike Hearn created the first version of this method for estimating fees.
It works as follows:

For transactions that took 1 to N (I picked N=25) blocks to confirm,
keep N buckets with at most 100 entries in each recording the
fees-per-kilobyte paid by those transactions.

(separate buckets are kept for transactions that confirmed because
they are high-priority)

The buckets are filled as blocks are found, and are saved/restored
in a new fee_estiamtes.dat file in the data directory.

A few variations on Mike's initial scheme:

To estimate the fee needed for a transaction to confirm in X buckets,
all of the samples in all of the buckets are used and a median of
all of the data is used to make the estimate. For example, imagine
25 buckets each containing the full 100 entries. Those 2,500 samples
are sorted, and the estimate of the fee needed to confirm in the very
next block is the 50'th-highest-fee-entry in that sorted list; the
estimate of the fee needed to confirm in the next two blocks is the
150'th-highest-fee-entry, etc.

That algorithm has the nice property that estimates of how much fee
you need to pay to get confirmed in block N will always be greater
than or equal to the estimate for block N+1. It would clearly be wrong
to say "pay 11 uBTC and you'll get confirmed in 3 blocks, but pay
12 uBTC and it will take LONGER".

A single block will not contribute more than 10 entries to any one
bucket, so a single miner and a large block cannot overwhelm
the estimates.

6e7c4d17d8 gitian: upgrade OpenSSL to 1.0.1h
Upgrade for https://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20140605.txt

Just in case - there is no vulnerability that affects ecdsa signing or
verification.

The MITM attack vulnerability (CVE-2014-0224) may have some effect on
our usage of SSL/TLS.

As long as payment requests are signed (which is the common case), usage
of the payment protocol should also not be affected.

The TLS usage in RPC may be at risk for MITM attacks. If you have
`-rpcssl` enabled, be sure to update OpenSSL as soon as possible.

a98b8707dc Some documentation fixes + link to my Docker/LXC guide
I added a link to my guide about using docker containers + LXC (I am planning to maintain this at work
for future bitcoin versions), then I mentioned other virtualization options (KVM, LXC).
This commit includes a fix issue for documentation issue #4269 that consists in telling users to
checkout correct bitcoin version before using the gitian descriptors (otherwise all hell can break loose).
Also, I replaced URL for Debian 7.4 ISO with a correct one and added link to official Debian ISO sources.

386e732a5f gitian: make linux qt intermediate deterministic
A qt installation date snuck into the host utils (lrelease etc)
This doesn't affect the end product, so no dependency version bump.

It also doesn't explain why gavin's and mine build is different
