Joinmarket-clientserver 0.8.0:
https://github.com/joinmarket-org/joinmarket-clientserver/releases/tag/v0.8.0
This is a major upgrade release, in one specific sense: the native segwit orderbook is now available, and wallets, by default, are created native segwit (bech32, i.e. addresses starting with bc1 on mainnet). Please read "Native segwit (bech32) order book" below for details.
There are also several minor bugfixes.
Please report bugs using the issue tracker at github:

Upgrading
To upgrade:
(If you are upgrading from a version pre-0.6.2 then please see the section "Move user data to home directory" in the 0.6.2 release notes, and follow the instructions there (except the commitmentlist file - that can actually be left alone, the previous release notes were wrong on this point).)
(If you are upgrading from a version pre-0.7.0 please read the "Upgrading" section in the 0.7.0 release notes.)
First run the install.sh script as mentioned in the README. When prompted to overwrite the directory jmvenv, accept.
Note that ./install.sh -? will show the options for installation.
Notable changes
Native segwit (bech32) order book
See the native segwit upgrade guide for details. From this release, new wallets will be created as native segwit by default. This setting can be changed by setting native=false in the [POLICY] section of joinmarket.cfg.
Note that native segwit wallets are not a new feature: we have had them since version 0.5.1 and they have been used for payjoin experimentation, what is new is only the default, and the use in Joinmarket coinjoins.
If you create wallets, and run Takers and Makers with the default settings, you will be using only native segwit for your coinjoins and other transactions, and will only join with other participants using native segwit. Note that everything about pre-existing p2sh coinjoins and transactions still works as before, if you disable as per the above native=false.

Bugfix: correct minsize calculation for yield generators with reloffers, and txfee contribution
A bug in the calculation of yield generator minsize, for reloffers, was previously not resetting it to a higher value to account for the txfee contribution; this is fixed. A consequence of this: default txfee contribution value is changed from 100 to 0, to avoid confusing yield generator users who might not understand the reason their number of coins is insufficient (it is a function of both the relative fee setting and the txfee contribution setting, to ensure that the profit is always at least 20% of the latter). The complexity of this should probably be removed in future updates to the protocol.

d1ae07d set default txfee contrib to zero, improve error message
Don't fail on whitespace in recovery seed entry
In entering recovery seed phrases on Qt and command line, we now ensure that white space is always stripped appropriately; prior to this fix, unexpected failures could occur due to whitespace being interpreted as a word in the seed phrase.

Make libsecp256k1 tests optional in installation script
This option is enabled with the --disable-secp-check parameter of install.sh, and is useful for people on more constrained devices who want to speed up installation.
