Forest v0.16.5 "Pinecone Deactivation"

⛔ Defect release, It is close to impossible to export snapshots due to low timeout on the export. Please use a fixed version v0.16.6

Non-mandatory upgrade, including primarily new RPC endpoints. The option to use an alternative FilOps snapshot provider was removed, given the service was decommissioned.

Forest v0.16.4 "Speedy Gonzales"

This is a non-mandatory (but suggested) release that includes Butterfly network support and performance improvements for state migrations. Also, several RPC endpoints were implemented, see CHANGELOG for details.

Full Changelog: v0.16.3...v0.16.4

Forest v0.16.3 "Tempura"

This release fixes a performance bug that prevented Forest from staying up-to-date with the Filecoin network.

Forest v0.16.2 "November Rain"

This is a mandatory upgrade for the calibration network nodes adding glif.io bootstrap node (required in case of Fil-Infra nodes outage).

For the mainnet, it's an optional release.
