5) Average price gets set to the "median feed"

I think this really means "the JSON-RPC field and the spot in the GUI that previously displayed the average price now display the median feed price but have not been relabeled."   If this is, in fact, what it actually means, then I think we should relabel them before we drop the release candidate status.

BitShares has enough confusing, technical, somewhat poorly documented terminology as it is.  There's absolutely no need to go re-defining terms like "average price" to mean something completely different from what people expect it to mean!

The GUI reads median price... that particular comment was based upon technical internals.

Should seed nodes and delegates update to this ? (before official release I mean)

Well if the release testing goes well then you will be ahead of the game.   Delegates that are less pro-active can wait until the official tag is declared as 0.4.11.

No major new changes will be made between master and 0.4.11.

0.4.11 release candidate has been posted to master at https://github.com/dacsunlimited/bitsharesx.git

https://github.com/dacsunlimited/bitsharesx/releases/tag/0.4.11-RC1


More market fixes so RC1 users still will have to upgrade:
https://github.com/dacsunlimited/bitsharesx/releases/tag/0.4.11-RC2

Changes in this update:
1) Major bugs fixes in the GUI
2) Shorts can sell at up to 10% below the peg *if* there are offers to buy above the peg.  The difference is captured as fees, gives priority to shorts willing to pay the highest fee.
3) Enhancements for canceling orders when managing a wallet imported from backup.
4) Deterministic key generation is now done on a per-account basis rather than per-wallet.  This should help place orders in the proper account when recovering from backups.
5) Average price gets set to the "median feed"
6) Major network bug fixes.

All hard-fork changes are currently scheduled to go into effect Friday at Noon. 

Test GUIs should be provided by DAC Sun Limited soon.
