Release is now available from:
https://www.dash.org/downloads/#wallets
This is a new minor version release, bringing various bugfixes and improvements.

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/Dash-Qt (on Mac) or dashd/dash-qt (on Linux). If you upgrade after DIP0003 activation and you were using version < 0.13 you will have to reindex (start with -reindex-chainstate or -reindex) to make sure your wallet has all the new data synced. Upgrading from version 0.13 should not require any additional actions.
When upgrading from a version prior to 0.14.0.3, the first startup of Dash Core will run a migration process which can take a few minutes to finish. After the migration, a downgrade to an older version is only possible with a reindex (or reindex-chainstate).
Downgrade warning
Downgrade to a version < 0.14.0.3
Downgrading to a version older than 0.14.0.3 is no longer supported due to changes in the "evodb" database format. If you need to use an older version, you must either reindex or re-sync the whole chain.
Downgrade of masternodes to < 0.16
Starting with this release, masternodes will verify the protocol version of other masternodes. This will result in PoSe punishment/banning for outdated masternodes, so downgrading is not recommended.
Notable changes
Network changes
InstantSend locks were not relayed correctly when another node was requesting updates via the mempool
p2p message. Some other internal optimizations were made to the way object requests are handled.
GUI changes
Fixes for the following GUI related issues
- The wallet crashed if no valid GUI theme was found in settings. This happened for users upgrading from versions prior to v0.14.
- There were randomly occurring font size scaling issues.
- Opening or closing the settings while the application was in full-screen/maximized window mode lead to fragmented GUI layouts.
- There was an unexpected checkmark in the "Encrypt wallet" menu item on Linux and Windows
- Starting Dash Core compiled without wallet support or with
-disablewallet
command line parameter lead to an application crash.
RPC changes
getwalletinfo
shows wallet rescan duration and progress now
