Payment Protocol support is ready to be pulled (https:/= /github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/2539) . Unless there are major objecti= ons, I will pull it tomorrow (it has already gone through two rounds of bou= nty-driven QA testing, so I'm convinced it is ready).

No objections from me, I'v= e already looked at the code a few times and did some testing here and ther= e, looks good for merging.

I'd love for 0.9 to contain sipa's "headers first" i= nitial block download optimization; I think it is a big enough improvement = to justify making the 0.9 test/release cycle longer.

Yep, that'd be great.

Coin control (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/2343).


Gitian-build with the latest openssl and Qt5. Perhaps u= pdate the version of Debian VMs that we gitian-build with.

Fully agreed about payment protocol, autotools = and Qt5 build.=C2=A0
