This is a maintenance release of eclair, which includes several improvements and bug fixes, including:
- a fix for an unnecessary check on outgoing HTLCs that caused interoperability issues with c-lightning
- additional BOLT compliance checks
- the ability to specify payment request expiries from the API
We strongly recommend that users upgrade their nodes.
