Milestone 7
-----------
* Developer experience:
* With thanks to *Thomas Schroeter* ``NotaryFlow`` is now idempotent.
* Improved API to ``NetworkMapCache`` by removing the duplicated gte() and moved many getter implementations from
the ``InMemoryNetworkMapCache`` to the ``NetworkMapCache`` because they were generic implementations. ``regulators``.
also renamed ``regulatorNodes`` to be consistent.
* Improved client observable API by merging two specific folds into a general fold function and added a buffer to
the rx observable to avoid flooding the UI thread.
* CorDapp types can be used in parameters to ``startFlowDynamic``.
* The CorDapp template now has a Java example that parallels the Kotlin one for developers more comfortable with
Java. ORM support added to the pair of examples.
* Explorer:
* The GUI for the explorer now shows other nodes on the network map and the transactions between them.
* Map resolution increased and allows zooming and panning.
* Video demonstration of the Node Explorer: `https://www.corda.net/2017/01/03/the-node-explorer/`_.

ORM support added to the pair of examples.
* Demos:
* Added the Bank of Corda demo - a demo showing a node (Bank of Corda) acting as an issuer of Cash, and a client
driver providing both Web and RPC access to request issuance of cash.
* Demos now use RPC to communicate with the node from the webserver. This brings the demos more in line with how
interaction with nodes is expected to be. The demos now treat their webservers like clients. This will also allow
for the splitting of the webserver from the node for milestone 8.
* Added a SIMM valuation demo integration test to catch regressions.
* Security:

This also means that nodes or RPC users cannot pretend to be other nodes or RPC users.
* The node now does host verification of any node that connects to it and prevents man in the middle attacks.

* Cash balances are calculated using aggregate values to prevent iterating through all states in the vault, which
improves performance.
* Multi-party services, such as notaries, are now load balanced and represented as a single ``Party`` object.
* The Notary Change flow now supports encumberances.
