Bugfix release 3.3.2
Release Notes
The BitShares Core software has been updated to the 3.3.2 Bugfix Release. The Core software is used to build the validation nodes that perform consensus of all transactions on the BitShares blockchain. This release contains only bugfixes related to the P2P networking layer.

Documentation for BitShares developers may be now be found at the new BitShares Developer Portal.
Who Should Upgrade?
Upgrade is strongly recommended for nodes running the 3.3.x releases, which are known to crash comparatively often. This release should improve the situation significantly.
Versions before 3.3.0 are suffering from a data leak that has also been fixed with 3.3.2. We recommend that these nodes should be upgraded too. Please check the release nodes of all intermediate releases when upgrading.

Precautions
