The proof session.
"There were long silences. ‘He was on the edge,’ MacGregor said. Matthews was practically holding his breath. He didn’t want to say too much out loud, so he texted MacGregor. The text said: ‘He should call Ramona.’ While MacGregor was out of the room Wright phoned his wife, and she said: ‘Do it.’ Everyone waited with bated breath as Wright used the new laptop to open the Satoshi wallet and set about signing a new message to Andresen. It failed. It wouldn’t verify. He tried it again and again, until Andresen remembered that Wright hadn’t typed ‘CSW’
at the end of the message the way he had in the original, the one he was seeking to verify.
When he put ‘CSW’ at the end of his message to Gavin it said: ‘Verified’. Wright had demonstrated, on a brand-new laptop, that he held Satoshi’s private key. They stood up and
shook hands and Gavin thanked him for all he had done. There were tears in Wright’s eyes.
‘His voice was breaking,’ MacGregor told me. ‘Gavin could see he was going though something.’ Both MacGregor and Matthews later said that Wright was turned inside out by the session. ‘I didn’t want to just put him in a taxi,’ MacGregor said. Andresen was wiped out, so he went to get some fish and chips, and then headed to bed. ‘Craig broke down,’ MacGregor told me. ‘He said he thought he’d never have to do this. He said he never knew how to trust people in his life.’ Wright and Matthews and MacGregor went off to find a bottle of wine. ‘He was semi-apologising for being a pain in the ass,’ MacGregor told me, ‘but I understood more than ever, at that point, how hard the whole thing was for him.’
When I asked Andresen if he thought ending the Satoshi mystery might be good for the
technology, he wasn’t sure. ‘On one hand,’ he said, ‘having a mysterious founder is a great
creation myth. People love a creation myth. Knowing the real story might make bitcoin less
interesting to people. On the other hand, money is supposed to be boring – something that
“just works”, used by most people without understanding how or why it works. I’m excited to see how Craig contributes to making bitcoin work even better than it does today.’ .."

"The next day, Wednesday, 4 May, 2016 Matthews was at Wright’s house organising the movement of coin. The new (and final) proof session was intended to blow away the doubts created by the first. Many commentators felt it was too late, that Wright was beyond the pale, but
Matthews and MacGregor had agreed with Andresen that the movement of coin, to Andresen and also to Cellan-Jones at the BBC, would undo the damage. Wright spoke to Andresen on the phone from his house – Andresen was in New York – and told him he was worried about a security flaw in the early blockchain, a problem in the way those first blocks were constructed that would make it dangerous for him to move coin, exposing him to exploitation or theft. My sources say that Andresen understood the problem and confirmed that it was all right, it had been fixed. But Wright continued to worry and was showing great reluctance about offering the final proof. Then he left the room abruptly and didn’t come back".

"¿Te imaginas un juego que te regala varios bitcoins? Hace tan sólo nueve años, una página web creada por Gavin Andresen regalaba cinco bitcoins a los usuarios por el simple hecho de completar un captcha. Al precio de hoy, esos bitcoins valdrían cerca de 50.000 euros, toda una fortuna para la mayoría de los habitantes del planeta en la actualidad."

Gavin Andresen Steps Down as Bitcoin’s Lead Developer.
Apr 8, 2014
Kadhim Shubber
Bitcoin’s new lead developer Wladimir van der Laan tells CoinDesk via email he was “surprised” to be offered the role and hadn’t expected Gavin Andresen to step down:
“I had noticed that Gavin had been much less active in the Github project lately, but I did not expect him to step down as lead developer. But it makes sense, there is a lot more theoretical work with regard to Bitcoin and cryptocurrency in general making it a full-time job just to keep up with that (and giving talks, travelling, and such). On the other hand, I have been effectively the maintainer of the code for quite a while. In practice nothing changes.”
Wladimir van der Laan, a Dutch computer scientist with a PhD in computer graphics from University of Groningen, will be taking over as Bitcoin Core Maintainer"

Someone on IRC said that they'd like to be notified of new versions through a mailing list, so I thought I'd start reposting Satoshi's version announcements here. Hopefully no one finds this annoying...
http://www.bitcoin.org/smf/index.php?topic=999.0
Version 0.3.12 is now available.
Features:
- json-rpc errors return a more standard error object. (thanks to Gavin Andresen)
- json-rpc command line returns exit codes.
- json-rpc "backupwallet" command.
- Recovers and continues if an exception is caused by a message you received. Other nodes shouldn't be able to cause an exception, and it hasn't happened before, but if a way is found to cause an exception, this would keep it from being used to stop network nodes.
If you have json-rpc code that checks the contents of the error string, you need to change it to expect error objects of the form {"code":<number>,"message":<string>}, which is the standard. See this thread:

Binaries for Bitcoin version 0.3.20.01 are available at:

There were several changes and additions to the JSON
remote-procedure-call interface;
there are no significant user interface changes. See:
http://www.bitcoin.org/smf/index.php?topic=3473.msg48839#msg48839

This version does fix one significant denial-of-service attack

attacker).

Bitcoin version 0.4.0 is now available for download at:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/bitcoin/files/Bitcoin/bitcoin-0.4.0/
The main feature in this release is wallet private key encryption;
you can set a passphrase that must be entered before sending coins.
See below for more information; if you decide to encrypt your wallet,
WRITE DOWN YOUR PASSPHRASE AND PUT IT IN A SECURE LOCATION. If you
forget or lose your wallet passphrase, you lose your bitcoins.
Previous versions of bitcoin are unable to read encrypted wallets,
and will crash on startup if the wallet is encrypted.
Also note: bitcoin version 0.4 uses a newer version of Berkeley DB
(bdb version 4.8) than previous versions (bdb 4.7). If you upgrade
to version 0.4 and then revert back to an earlier version of bitcoin
the it may be unable to start because bdb 4.7 cannot read bdb 4.8
"log" files.

CVE-2012-2459: Critical Vulnerability
A denial-of-service vulnerability that affects all versions of
bitcoind and Bitcoin-Qt has been reported and fixed. An attacker
could isolate a victim's node and cause the creation of blockchain
forks.
Because this bug could be exploited to severely disrupt the Bitcoin
network we consider this a critical vulnerability, and encourage
everybody to upgrade to the latest version: 0.6.2.
Backports for older releases (0.5.5 and 0.4.6) are also available if
you cannot upgrade to version 0.6.2.
Full technical details are being withheld to give people the
opportunity to upgrade.
Thanks to Forrest Voight for discovering and reporting the vulnerability.

Bitcoin version 0.6.2 is now available for download at:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/bitcoin/files/Bitcoin/bitcoin-0.6.2/
This is a bug-fix and code-cleanup release, with no major new features.
NOTABLE CHANGES
===============
Much faster shutdowns. However, the blkindex.dat file is no longer
portable to different data directories by default. If you need a
portable blkindex.dat file then run with the new -detachdb=1 option
or the "Detach databases at shutdown" GUI preference.
Fixed https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/1065, a bug that
could cause long-running nodes to crash.
Mac and Windows binaries are compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.1b (Linux
binaries are dynamically linked to the version of OpenSSL on the system).

Hey y'all:
I put the Reason.TV folks in touch with Jerry Brito (he already knows

picture Bitcoin" stuff. I did a Surprisingly Free podcast with him
that will be out tomorrow ( http://surprisinglyfree.com/ )
