16Compatibility
17==============
18
19Microsoft ended support for Windows XP on [April 8th, 2014](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/WindowsForBusiness/end-of-xp-support),
20an OS initially released in 2001. This means that not even critical security
21updates will be released anymore. Without security updates, using a bitcoin
22wallet on a XP machine is irresponsible at least.
23
24In addition to that, with 0.12.x there have been varied reports of Bitcoin Core
25randomly crashing on Windows XP. It is [not clear](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/7681#issuecomment-217439891)
26what the source of these crashes is, but it is likely that upstream
27libraries such as Qt are no longer being tested on XP.
28
29We do not have time nor resources to provide support for an OS that is
30end-of-life. From 0.13.0 on, Windows XP is no longer supported. Users are
31suggested to upgrade to a newer version of Windows, or install an alternative OS
32that is supported.
33
34No attempt is made to prevent installing or running the software on Windows XP,
35you can still do so at your own risk, but do not expect it to work: do not
36report issues about Windows XP to the issue tracker.
37
38From 0.13.1 onwards OS X 10.7 is no longer supported. 0.13.0 was intended to work on 10.7+, 
39but severe issues with the libc++ version on 10.7.x keep it from running reliably. 
400.13.1 now requires 10.8+, and will communicate that to 10.7 users, rather than crashing unexpectedly.

42Notable changes
43===============
44
45Change to wallet handling of mempool rejection
46-----------------------------------------------
47
48When a newly created transaction failed to enter the mempool due to
49the limits on chains of unconfirmed transactions the sending RPC
50calls would return an error.  The transaction would still be queued
51in the wallet and, once some of the parent transactions were
52confirmed, broadcast after the software was restarted.
53
54This behavior has been changed to return success and to reattempt
55mempool insertion at the same time transaction rebroadcast is
56attempted, avoiding a need for a restart.
57
58Transactions in the wallet which cannot be accepted into the mempool
59can be abandoned with the previously existing abandontransaction RPC
60(or in the GUI via a context menu on the transaction).
