--------------
If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait until it has completely

+shut down (which might take a few minutes for older versions), then run the
+installer (on Windows) or just copy over /Applications/Bitcoin-Qt (on Mac) or
+bitcoind/bitcoin-qt (on Linux).
If you are upgrading from version 0.7.2 or earlier, the first time you run
-0.9.0 your blockchain files will be re-indexed, which will take anywhere from
+0.9.1 your blockchain files will be re-indexed, which will take anywhere from
30 minutes to several hours, depending on the speed of your machine.
-On Windows, do not forget to uninstall all earlier versions of the Bitcoin
-client first, especially if you are switching to the 64-bit version.
-
-Windows 64-bit installer
--------------------------
-
-New in 0.9.0 is the Windows 64-bit version of the client. There have been
-frequent reports of users running out of virtual memory on 32-bit systems
-during the initial sync. Because of this it is recommended to install the
-64-bit version if your system supports it.
-
-NOTE: Release candidate 2 Windows binaries are not code-signed; use PGP
-and the SHA256SUMS.asc file to make sure your binaries are correct.
-In the final 0.9.0 release, Windows setup.exe binaries will be code-signed.
-
-OSX 10.5 / 32-bit no longer supported
--------------------------------------
-
-0.9.0 drops support for older Macs. The minimum requirements are now:
-* A 64-bit-capable CPU (see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3696);
-* Mac OS 10.6 or later (see https://support.apple.com/kb/ht1633).
-
-Downgrading warnings
---------------------
-
-The 'chainstate' for this release is not always compatible with previous
-releases, so if you run 0.9 and then decide to switch back to a
-0.8.x release you might get a blockchain validation error when starting the
-old release (due to 'pruned outputs' being omitted from the index of
-unspent transaction outputs).
-
-Running the old release with the -reindex option will rebuild the chainstate
-data structures and correct the problem.
-
-Also, the first time you run a 0.8.x release on a 0.9 wallet it will rescan
-the blockchain for missing spent coins, which will take a long time (tens
-of minutes on a typical machine).
-
-Rebranding to Bitcoin Core
----------------------------
-
-To reduce confusion between Bitcoin-the-network and Bitcoin-the-software we
-have renamed the reference client to Bitcoin Core.
-
-Autotools build system
------------------------
-
-For 0.9.0 we switched to an autotools-based build system instead of individual
-(q)makefiles.
-
-Using the standard "./autogen.sh; ./configure; make" to build Bitcoin-Qt and
-bitcoind makes it easier for experienced open source developers to contribute
-to the project.
-
-Be sure to check doc/build-*.md for your platform before building from source.
-
-Bitcoin-cli
--------------
-
-Another change in the 0.9 release is moving away from the bitcoind executable
-functioning both as a server and as a RPC client. The RPC client functionality
-("tell the running bitcoin daemon to do THIS") was split into a separate
-executable, 'bitcoin-cli'. The RPC client code will eventually be removed from
-bitcoind, but will be kept for backwards compatibility for a release or two.
-
-`walletpassphrase` RPC
------------------------
-
-The behavior of the `walletpassphrase` RPC when the wallet is already unlocked
-has changed between 0.8 and 0.9.
-
-The 0.8 behavior of `walletpassphrase` is to fail when the wallet is already unlocked:
-
- > walletpassphrase 1000
- walletunlocktime = now + 1000
- > walletpassphrase 10
- Error: Wallet is already unlocked (old unlock time stays)
-
-The new behavior of `walletpassphrase` is to set a new unlock time overriding
-the old one:
-
- > walletpassphrase 1000
- walletunlocktime = now + 1000
- > walletpassphrase 10
- walletunlocktime = now + 10 (overriding the old unlock time)
-
-Transaction malleability-related fixes
---------------------------------------
-
-This release contains a few fixes for transaction ID (TXID) malleability
-issues:
-
-- -spendzeroconfchange=0 command-line option, to avoid spending
- zero-confirmation change
-- IsStandard() transaction rules tightened to prevent relaying and mining of
- mutated transactions
-- Additional information in listtransactions/gettransaction output to
- report wallet transactions that conflict with each other because
- they spend the same outputs.
-- Bug fixes to the getbalance/listaccounts RPC commands, which would report
- incorrect balances for double-spent (or mutated) transactions.
-- New option: -zapwallettxes to rebuild the wallet's transaction information
-
-Transaction Fees
-----------------
-
-This release drops the default fee required to relay transactions across the
-network and for miners to consider the transaction in their blocks to
-0.01mBTC per kilobyte.
-
-Note that getting a transaction relayed across the network does NOT guarantee
-that the transaction will be accepted by a miner; by default, miners fill
-their blocks with 50 kilobytes of high-priority transactions, and then with
-700 kilobytes of the highest-fee-per-kilobyte transactions.
-
-The minimum relay/mining fee-per-kilobyte may be changed with the
-minrelaytxfee option. Note that previous releases incorrectly used
-the mintxfee setting to determine which low-priority transactions should
-be considered for inclusion in blocks.
-
-The wallet code still uses a default fee for low-priority transactions of
-0.1mBTC per kilobyte. During periods of heavy transaction volume, even this
-fee may not be enough to get transactions confirmed quickly; the mintxfee
-option may be used to override the default.

-GUI:
+- Upgrade OpenSSL to 1.0.1g. This release fixes the following vulnerabilities which can

-Miscellaneous:
+ - CVE-2014-0076

-Thanks to everyone who contributed to this release:
