In response to some comments on the forums, we have decided to create a new release which adds in some useful features. This is not a mandatory release, but it is still recommended that you upgrade to keep up to date.

This release adds in some hardened checkpoints, along with some new RPC methods related to PoW blocks.

The getpowblocks [block] method returns the number of PoW blocks mined in the longest block chain at height block. If the optional block argument is not provided, it defaults to the current best height.

The getpowblocksleft [block] method returns the number of PoW blocks left to mined in the longest block chain at height block. If the optional block argument is not provided, it defaults to the current best height.

The getpowtimeleft [time-unit] [block] method returns an approximation of the amount of time remaining before PoW ends. It accepts an optional time unit, one of {days,hours,minutes,seconds,d,h,m,s}, defaulting to seconds. The second optional block argument allows for specifying the block height to use for calculating the time remaining. Note that this is just an estimate, so some fluctuations are expected.
