I downloaded the source and compiled as normal. I see on bitnodes that it shows my version as 0.11.99.  Does it matter?

Just wait until it's done. This happened to me as well, but it turn out that it was loading blocks.You can go to the bitcoin folder and refresh the "blocks" folder to see if it's downloading something.

I can't update my blockchain since updating to 0.11.2 (I had 0.11.1 and was working fine). I am stuck in "activating best chain" with the intro splash screen window thing with the BTC logo for some reason.

I've had this issue, but not since 0.11.2 (not upgraded yet). It took maybe 20 minutes, but it works through it.

That windows bug has definitely been a PITA. Takes nearly 24 hours to reindex with the CPU fan screaming in my ear since I usually sleep with my laptop next to my head.

lol you must be very dedicated to Windows and Bitcoin. I often wonder if it'll take Windows 365 before people switch to something else.  Smiley

Windows 7 or 8.1 max here, will never be switching to 10 and have the spyware updates blacklisted in my WSUS server, as well as blackholeing the IPs in my router.

Yeah, I heard about that. No use resisting, you will be assimilated!

If you have a need to run a current Windows O/S consider running Windows Server. I have been running Windows Server 2012R2 instead of 8.1 and I will soon upgrade to Windows Server 2016 (Windows 10 equivalent). They are meant to be run in air-gapped environments and spyware is disabled by default or easy to turn off. The default server install is also way more hardened than the default desktop Windows install.

If you don't want BIP65, do not mine V4 blocks and do not relay V4 blocks. For me BIP65 has some advantages and no big drawbacks so I relay and accept V4 blocks.

Where is the 95% consensus to implement an OP code change? Or right we don't need consensus for Blockstream projects.
The developers agreed and there was consensus to include OP_CHECKLOCKTIMEVERIFY in this version and on. The actual enforcement of BIP65 for this will only occur after 951 out of the last 1001 blocks have version 4 or higher. Read the info about it in the release notes in the OP.

I think it's not mandatory to download this version. I don't want to change my Core in every update, it's updated too often.
Maybe next versions we have auto-update options built inside of the Core, just like Windows Updates.

Yeah, what a hassle. Let's NOT update (because it only takes like 2 minutes) and get exposed to some bugs instead.
Cmon man just update the thing, it takes no time. It's not like you have to download the entire blockchain from scratch.

LOL... I kept waiting for this version because it has the windows bug fix but couldn't wait any longer so I installed v.11.1 yesterday. My wallet is still at "17 weeks behind..."  I suppose it shouldn't matter if I close the wallet now and get this new version?  

Yeah, you don't have any problems. You can update it. Just in case something happens don't forget to backup your wallet.dat file.

Nope, it will continue where you closed it.

I would prefer to make that choice on my own. Can you imagine if someone push a malicious update and it get automatically updates to the majority, and they infect the whole network? That would not be very smart... The updates has always been manual.

Did you even read my previous post?

It's not going to happen, read OmegaStarScream's link.
