 Many thanks for your excellent continuing work with improving the Tor
 Browser Bundle (TBB).

 Would you also consider updating the python27.dll that is included in the
 following folder?

 Tor Browser\Browser\TorBrowser\Tor\PluggableTransports

 The DLL is v2.7.5. 2.7.11 is the latest release from that branch. Versions
 after 2.7.5 include important bug and security fixes. Full details are
 available in the release notes:

 https://hg.python.org/cpython/raw-file/53d30ab403f1/Misc/NEWS

 Apologies if I have misunderstood how this DLL relates to the Python
 runtime version 2.7.11. Thanks again for your time.
