v0.11.2.x Release announcement note #220

Closed UdjinM6 closed 9 years ago

UdjinM6 commented 9 years ago

Just had a though looking at all different test wallets I have and their names.... We need to make BIG RED LETTER NOTE: IF YOU HAVE WALLET NAMED MASTERNODES.DAT RENAME IT BEFORE UPGRADING TO V0.11.2.x OR YOU WILL LOSE YOUR COINS

vertoe commented 9 years ago

plus detailled explaination why.

UdjinM6 commented 9 years ago

Sure, but I think not too much detailed, smth like "Wallet will now save additional information about known masternodes to masternode.dat file" should be enough.

this is an important ticket.

i'd like to add:

release notes and explainations about bip66 (miner votes)
