This is the last build to support Java 6! The next build will require
Java 7 or higher. Nodes running Java 7 or higher and using the official
update key will now use a new update key. Nodes on Java 6 remain using
the old update key and will not be updated to further builds. Thanks to
yadevel for fixing the regression this release was blocking on!

This version was initially partially released as build 1471 - it was
released on GitHub but not offered from the website or auto-update.
Build 1472 fixes a bug which when using Java 6 prevented nodes from
starting for the first time. It did not break existing installations.

Highlights:

- Fix uploads stalling when using MAXIMUM physical security.
- Fix lots of "setNativePriority(X) has failed!", which was caused by a
  serious thread priority problem. This might fix nodes unexpectedly
  losing peers.
- Order alerts within a category by time: if you have lots of messages
  from darknet peers they will remain nicely sorted.

Translations:

- Add partial Greek translation.
- Update German, Bokmål, Brazilian Portuguese, Simplified Chinese, and
  Traditional Chinese translations.
- Fix Bokmål localization loading.

Also:

- Remove Gantros Index because it stopped updating.
- Remove Linkageddon because it stopped updating.
- New version of UPnP to fix some instability and compatibility
  problems. Thanks to 007pig we have a new UPnP plugin in development
  which supports UPnP2, but it is not yet included. [2]
- New version of KeyUtils.

WebOfTrust now has an updatable testing version built and maintained by
xor. To use it, unload WebOfTrust, then load "WebOfTrust Testing
Versions" on the Plugins page. Versions built by xor will not work with
Java 6.

Sites can set favicons with <link ref="icon" type=... href=...>. (type
could be "image/x-icon")

Extensive review and improvement of English source strings and French
and Spanish translations. Tests for and fixes of value substitution in
translations. Thanks Vaughan Woodzell!

The default theme is now sky-static instead of clean-dropdown. This
looks less outdated, though not modern.

There is now a caching layer on the store. This should significantly
reduce I/O load. [0]

Fix default bookmarks missing the "software" category since build 1470.
If you don't see this category please re-add the default bookmark set
from the bookmark editing page.

IpToCountry database is updated. (This allows providing the country
flags on the peers pages. It is local to each instance and does not
contact an external service.)

WebOfTrust is updated to build 18. Its changelog is separate, [1] but
one of the major changes is incremental score recomputation which
requires roughly 3% of the time of a full recomputation.

Add partial CSS3 support, including viewport lengths. Thanks, Ben Green!
