Please report bugs using the issue tracker at github:
https://github.com/joinmarket-org/joinmarket-clientserver/issues
To upgrade:
(If you are upgrading from a version pre-0.6.2 then please see the section "Move user data to home directory" in the 0.6.2 release notes, and follow the instructions there (except the commitmentlist file - that can actually be left alone, the previous release notes were wrong on this point).)
(If you are upgrading from a version pre-0.7.0 please read the "Upgrading" section in the 0.7.0 release notes.)
(If you are upgrading from a version pre-0.9.0 please read the release notes to find out how about fidelity bonds are relevant to your use-case).
First run the install.sh script as mentioned in the README. When prompted to overwrite the directory jmvenv, accept.
Note that ./install.sh -? will show the options for installation.
This change is placed prominently and mentioned in the release summary, because it's a change we want all users to notice: enable the Agora IRC server, so we have 3 by default, since there are reports that the hackint server is proving unreliable at the moment.
Remember that the default config (which you should always re-generate with each release and then apply your own settings) does not have Tor enabled; uncomment the relevant lines (in MESSAGING:server3 in this case) to enable Tor.
It is still very much user choice though: you can choose any combination of servers you prefer, but obviously the defaults will likely contain the most users.

d0966c3 Update Agora Tor host to onion v3
This is the main reason for the new release; on command line, takers now make their randomized maker choice weighted by fidelity bonds, but an oversight meant that for takers using JoinmarketQt, the default order choice mechanism was still the old randomized one, not weighted by fidelity bonds. This is now corrected so that Qt users get the same benefit of Sybil resistance, which was the point of the fidelity bond update in Joinmarket 0.9.
8085a4e Set fidelity_bond_weighted_order_choose as default
Under the hood our direct send code supported setting the opt-in RBF flag, but it is now made an option (--rbf) in CLI, for making payments. Note that this is only the flag-setting part; there already is a PR #1019 that will create a user script to actually create the replacement transaction. For now that is only possible by creating a PSBT, which is a bit non-trivial for most users.
Note also that to add this feature to coinjoins isn't really practical as it means re-signing by counterparties who are not still connected.
b19888e add opt-in rbf support for direct sends
635f3f1 Adds test case for fee bumping a tx using PSBT
The second of these (which are self-explanatory), is minor in itself, but is probably the start of a rationalization of the existing rather messy Qt code into a more harmonious form. Hopefully! (This will be of little interest to users though, except in as much as it should make the Qt app a little more user-friendly over time, if progress is made).
The third is also practically useful: if Qt misses a recent update, you can force a refresh of the wallet with the right click (context) menu, on the wallet pane.
6ff1a65 Hide the donateLayout as it is currently disabled.
1dd1679 Show an OpenWallet dialog upon launching JoinMarketQT
f50fa4f Add a menu action to force wallet refresh
These changes are not relevant to users, but important for any future development: we remove issues around encoding/decoding of data types from the business logic (mostly, the Taker and Maker code) for better encapsulation.
7dcd3f3 move client/server data encoding to twisted
e082c3c remove unneeded hex encoding/decoding from sent_tx + push_tx
This script (whose name is self-explanatory) is not part of users' normal workflow but useful for people running Joinmarket in certain environments. It's updated for fidelity bonds and somewhat refactored:
53e7bf1 genwallet.py: Add option --recovery-seed-file
e4be034 Extract function read_password_stdin
c5621ad genwallet.py: Enable Fidelity Bonds by default
91a8f7f genwallet.py: Minor improvments
c944046 chmod +x
The least minor of this set: this enables fidelity bonds for the manual order pick option (-P) on the command line:
0e80b2d Show fidelity bond value in manual order picking
These two fixed a bug after the dust_threshold was corrected, so although minor, they are needed for ob-watcher to function properly:
7eaf368 Fix ob-watcher script after dust threshold change
ab9b1a8 fix test of AMP commands for dust_threshold
2ed3f21 Update the url links in setup.py files
801dfa3 Fixes #991 - remove get_config_irc_channel
7c4ba09 remove executable bit
f93ccf0 remove unneeded shebangs
dfc82ab various whitespace fixes
2fdebb8 do not call reactor.stop() in test_commands.py
