Status (9 colour-coded stages, cumulative, dot-joined) and Server (5 textual labels) are **two different columns** that coexist. The PDF documents only Status because Server is newer. |

| Postponing always requires an on-chain invalidation | Balance/heir changes → will **anticipated by one day and redistributed**, no on-chain fee. On-chain invalidation only for a genuine postponement |
| Will-Executor lists come from BitcoinTalk | **WeList** directory, downloaded by default |
| "prepare / sign / broadcast" run automatically on close | Still true, but the plugin **asks** — it never signs on your behalf |

| Date | plugin_version | electrum_latest | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-07 (initial) | 0.2.6 | 4.7.2 | Last version explicitly documented in a release ("tested with electrum 4.7.1") |
| 2026-07-26 | 0.6.1 | 4.8.0 | Jump from 0.2.6 → 0.6.1: releases v0.5.18/v0.6.0/v0.6.1 mostly cover Tor/onion will-executor support. |
| 2026-07-27 | 0.6.1 | 4.8.0 | Confirmed: v0.6.1 tested against Electrum 4.8.0. `electrum_tested` updated from 4.7.1 → 4.8.0; the compatibility table row simplified to a single Electrum version. |

now reads "Python · v0.6.1", matching `plugin_version`. Still worth asking the diagram's source
(likely a design tool, not this repo) to drop the hardcoded version label so it doesn't need a
manual edit at every future release.

11-block median". Confirm this still holds.

8. **`docs/examples.md` (new, 2026-07-28) — needs a full accuracy pass.** Written from
`updating.md`/`delivery-time.md` rather than tested behaviour; user flagged it as containing
"parecchie imprecisioni" without specifying which. Marked with a draft warning on the page
itself. Re-check in particular: whether ordinary balance/heir changes really re-anticipate for
free every time (vs. some limit or condition), and whether postponing to hold a rolling 5-year
horizon really costs only "a small miner fee" as stated.
