A new mandatory Pandacoin release is now available.  Version 4.11.8

This release focuses on removing the timestamp field from individual transactions to make transactions more compatible with upstream style transactions, meaning it will become easier to develop third-party software related to Pandacoin in the future.

Transaction format version 4 has been added.

Transaction format v4 enables the omittance of the nTime flag within individual transactions.
This allows building transactions to be more in line with the upstream format commonly known from Bitcoin Core.
