* Release 1.8.1 (2010-10-28)

** Bugfixes and Improvements

 - Allow the repairer to improve the health of a file by uploading
   some shares, even if it cannot achieve the configured happiness
   threshold. This fixes a regression introduced between v1.7.1 and
   v1.8.0. (#1212)
 - Fix a memory leak in the ResponseCache which is used during mutable
   file/directory operations. (#1045)
 - Fix a regression and add a performance improvement in the downloader.
   This issue caused repair to fail in some special cases. (#1223)
 - Fix a bug that caused 'tahoe cp' to fail for a grid-to-grid copy
   involving a non-ASCII filename. (#1224)
 - Fix a rarely-encountered bug involving printing large strings to
   the console on Windows. (#1232)
 - Perform ~ expansion in the --exclude-from filename argument to
   'tahoe backup'. (#1241)
 - The CLI's 'tahoe mv' and 'tahoe ln' commands previously would try
   to use an HTTP proxy if the HTTP_PROXY environment variable was set.
   These now always connect directly to the WAPI, thus avoiding giving
   caps to the HTTP proxy (and also avoiding failures in the case that
   the proxy is failing or requires authentication). (#1253)
 - The CLI now correctly reports failure in the case that 'tahoe mv'
   fails to unlink the file from its old location. (#1255)
 - 'tahoe start' now gives a more positive indication that the node
   has started. (#71)
 - The arguments seen by 'ps' or other tools for node processes are
   now more useful (in particular, they include the path of the
   'tahoe' script, rather than an obscure tool named 'twistd'). (#174)

** Removed Features

 - The tahoe start/stop/restart and node creation commands no longer
   accept the -m or --multiple option, for consistency between platforms.
   (#1262)

** Packaging

 - We now host binary packages so that users on certain operating systems
   can install without having a compiler.
   <http://tahoe-lafs.org/source/tahoe-lafs/deps/tahoe-lafs-dep-eggs/README.html>
 - Use a newer version of a dependency if needed, even if an older
   version is installed. This would previously cause a VersionConflict
   error. (#1190)
 - Use a precompiled binary of a dependency if one with a sufficiently
   high version number is available, instead of attempting to compile
   the dependency from source, even if the source version has a higher
   version number. (#1233)

** Documentation

 - All current documentation in .txt format has been converted to
   .rst format. (#1225)
 - Added docs/backdoors.rst declaring that we won't add backdoors to
   Tahoe-LAFS, or add anything to facilitate government access to data.
   (#1216)
