Hyperledger Besu

v1.5.2 is now available. Improvements include:

Experimental offline backup and restore was added via the operator
x-backup-state and operator x-restore-state CLI commands. Data
formats will be fluid for as long as the x- prefix is present in
the CLI so it is advised not to rely on these backups for disaster
recovery.#1235

Experimental ethstats support added via the Xethstats and
Xethstats-contact CLI commands #1239

Peers added via the JSON-RPC admin_addPeer and admin_removePeer
will be shared or no longer shared via discovery respectively.
Previously they were not shared.#1177 contributed by br0tchain

Hyperledger Aries

RFC to change from did:sov to didcomm.org - this is a notable shift in
message types from “did:sov” URI’s to “https://didcomm.org/” message
types. The old “did:sov” will still be accepted but all new work
should be focused on the https://didcomm.org prefix
