A new version (v3.0.0-M1) of the enforcer plugin was released on July 27th. If for whatever reason that new version ends up in the local ~/.m2 cache, it results in broken builds because the new version's checksum gets validated instead of the older v1.4.1 checksum being validated. This is because the version provided to check was set simply to 'RELEASE', i.e. an alias indicating "whatever the latest release happens to be". This commit fixes #897 and avoids these potential build failures by pinning the version explicitly to v1.4.1. This forces the correct checksum to get validated, in turn causing the build to pass as expected. |

What is Bisq?
Bisq is a cross-platform desktop application that allows users to trade national currency (dollars, euros, etc) for bitcoin without relying on centralized exchanges such as Coinbase, Bitstamp or (the former) Mt. Gox.
By running Bisq on their local machines, users form a peer-to-peer network. Offers to buy and sell bitcoin are broadcast to that network, and through the process of offering and accepting these trades via the Bisq UI, a market is established.
There are no central points of control or failure in the Bisq network. There are no trusted third parties. When two parties agree to trade national currency for bitcoin, the bitcoin to be bought or sold is held in escrow using multisignature transaction capabilities native to the bitcoin protocol.
Because the national currency portion of any trade must be transferred via traditional means such as a wire transfer, Bisq incorporates first-class support for human arbitration to resolve any errors or disputes.
You can read about all of this and more in the whitepaper and arbitration documents. Several videos are available as well.
Status
Bisq has released the beta version on the 27th of April 2016. It is operational since that time without any major incident. Please follow the current development state at our road map. For the latest version checkout our releases page at Github.
