Win32, Linux and source releases (MacOSX soon) for bitcoin v0.3.23 have been uploaded to https://sourceforge.net/projects/bitcoin/files/Bitcoin/bitcoin-0.3.23/
This is another quick bugfix release, trying to deal with the influx of new bitcoin users.
Priority for next version: wallet encryption
Main items of note:
* P2P connect-to-node logic changed to reduce timeout a bit. The
network saw a huge influx of new users, who do not permit incoming
connections. This change is a short-term hack, to more quickly hunt
for useful P2P connections. Better "leaf node" logic is in the works,
but this should let us limp along until then.
* Transaction fee reduced to 0.0005 for new transactions (see note below)
* Client will relay transactions with fees as low as 0.0001 BTC
(see note below)
NOTE: There has been some fee confusion recently. Free transactions are supported and relayed as they always have been, according to special anti-spam rules. See https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Transaction_fees for details.
