+Bitcoin Core version 0.10.3 is now available from:
+
+ <https://bitcoin.org/bin/bitcoin-core-0.10.3/>
+
+This is a new minor version release, bringing security fixes and translation
+updates. It is recommended to upgrade to this version as soon as possible.
+
+Please report bugs using the issue tracker at github:
+
+ <https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues>
+
+Upgrading and downgrading
+=========================
+
+How to Upgrade
+--------------
+
+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).
+
+Downgrade warning
+------------------
+
+Because release 0.10.0 and later makes use of headers-first synchronization and
+parallel block download (see further), the block files and databases are not
+backwards-compatible with pre-0.10 versions of Bitcoin Core or other software:
+
+* Blocks will be stored on disk out of order (in the order they are
+received, really), which makes it incompatible with some tools or
+other programs. Reindexing using earlier versions will also not work
+anymore as a result of this.
+
+* The block index database will now hold headers for which no block is
+stored on disk, which earlier versions won't support.
+
+If you want to be able to downgrade smoothly, make a backup of your entire data
+directory. Without this your node will need start syncing (or importing from
+bootstrap.dat) anew afterwards. It is possible that the data from a completely
+synchronised 0.10 node may be usable in older versions as-is, but this is not
+supported and may break as soon as the older version attempts to reindex.
+
+This does not affect wallet forward or backward compatibility.
+
+Notable changes
+===============
+
+Fix buffer overflow in bundled upnp
+------------------------------------
+
+Bundled miniupnpc was updated to 1.9.20151008. This fixes a buffer overflow in
+the XML parser during initial network discovery.
+
+Details can be found here: http://talosintel.com/reports/TALOS-2015-0035/
+
+This applies to the distributed executables only, not when building from source or
+using distribution provided packages.
+
+Additionally, upnp has been disabled by default. This may result in a lower
+number of reachable nodes on IPv4, however this prevents future libupnpc
+vulnerabilities from being a structural risk to the network
+(see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/6795).
+
+Test for LowS signatures before relaying
+-----------------------------------------
+
+Make the node require the canonical 'low-s' encoding for ECDSA signatures when
+relaying or mining. This removes a nuisance malleability vector.
+
+Consensus behavior is unchanged.
+
+If widely deployed this change would eliminate the last remaining known vector
+for nuisance malleability on SIGHASH_ALL P2PKH transactions. On the down-side
+it will block most transactions made by sufficiently out of date software.
+
+Unlike the other avenues to change txids on transactions this
+one was randomly violated by all deployed bitcoin software prior to
+its discovery. So, while other malleability vectors where made
+non-standard as soon as they were discovered, this one has remained
+permitted. Even BIP62 did not propose applying this rule to
+old version transactions, but conforming implementations have become
+much more common since BIP62 was initially written.
+
+Bitcoin Core has produced compatible signatures since a28fb70e in
+September 2013, but this didn't make it into a release until 0.9
+in March 2014; Bitcoinj has done so for a similar span of time.
+Bitcoinjs and electrum have been more recently updated.
+
+This does not replace the need for BIP62 or similar, as miners can
+still cooperate to break transactions. Nor does it replace the
+need for wallet software to handle malleability sanely[1]. This
+only eliminates the cheap and irritating DOS attack.

+http://fc15.ifca.ai/preproceedings/bitcoin/paper_9.pdf
+
+Minimum relay fee default increase
+-----------------------------------
+
+The default for the `-minrelaytxfee` setting has been increased from `0.00001`
+to `0.00005`.
+
+This is necessitated by the current transaction flooding, causing
+outrageous memory usage on nodes due to the mempool ballooning. This is a
+temporary measure, bridging the time until a dynamic method for determining
+this fee is merged (which will be in 0.12).

### Helping to translate (using Transifex)
Transifex is setup to monitor the Github repo for updates, and when code containing new translations is found, Transifex will process any changes. It may take several hours after a pull-request has been merged, to appear in the Transifex web interface.
