+# Release 2.5
+ * All electrum windows are now part of the same process. When starting
+ a new GUI electrum instance, that instance starts a daemon if there is
+ none running. Otherwise it connects to the running daemon and sends the
+ it information to open a window in the daemon's process, and the new
+ instance then terminates.
+ * With the daemon changes, network and network proxy code could be unified.
+ This should improve the robustness of electrum's networking.
+ * Networking was rewritten to multiplex use select(), so all server
+ communication is handled by a single thread rather than a thread
+ per server connection. Moreover, the synchronizer, verifier, and
+ exchange rate plugin now run as separate jobs within the networking
+ thread instead of as their own threads. The elimination of so many
+ threads should lead to reduced lock contention and CPU usage.
+ * Various bugfixes.

# Release 2.4.4
* fix bug with trustedcoin plugin
