- 'tahoe start' now gives a more positive indication that the node
has started. (#71)
- The arguments seen by 'ps' or other tools for node processes should
be more useful (in particular, they should include the path of the
'tahoe' script, rather than an obscure tool named 'twistd'). (#174)
** Removed Features
- The tahoe start/stop/restart and node creation commands no longer
accept the -m or --multiple option, for consistency between platforms.
(#1262)
** Packaging
- We now host binary packages so that users on certain operating systems
can install without having a compiler.

- Use a newer version of a dependency if needed, even if an older
version is installed. This would previously cause a VersionConflict
error. (#1190)
