This is a maintenance release of eclair, which includes several improvements and bug fixes, including:
- a fix for a fee estimation bug which sometimes could have produced transactions that could not be relayed
- a simple scheme for notifying users when a payment has been completed
We strongly recommend that users upgrade their nodes.
