+Changes in version 0.2.3.2-alpha - 2011-07-18
+ o Major features:
+ - Clients can now use microdescriptors instead of regular descriptors
+ to build circuits. Microdescriptors are authority-generated and
+ authority-authenticated summaries of regular descriptors' contents,
+ designed to change very rarely (see proposal 158 for details). This
+ feature is designed to save bandwidth, especially for clients on
+ slow internet connections. It's off by default for now, since
+ nearly no caches support it, but it will be on-by-default for
+ clients in a future version. You can use the UseMicrodescriptors
+ option to turn it on.
+ - Tor clients using bridges can now be configured to use a separate
+ 'transport' proxy for each bridge. This approach helps to resist
+ censorship by allowing bridges to use protocol obfuscation
+ plugins. It implements part of proposal 180. Implements ticket 2841.
+ - While we're trying to bootstrap, record how many TLS connections
+ fail in each state, and report which states saw the most failures
+ in response to any bootstrap failures. This feature may speed up
+ diagnosis of censorship events. Implements ticket 3116.
+
+ o Major bugfixes (on 0.2.3.1-alpha):
+ - When configuring a large set of nodes in EntryNodes (as with
+ 'EntryNodes {cc}' or 'EntryNodes 1.1.1.1/16'), choose only a
+ random subset to be guards, and choose them in random
+ order. Fixes bug 2798.
+ - Fix a crash bug that could occur when setting a consensus in a
+ non-used consensus flavor without having a current consensus set.
+ Fixes bug 3361.
+ - Fix a bug where comparing an unknown address to a microdescriptor's
+ shortened exit policy would always seem to give a "rejected" result.
+ Fixes bug 3599.
+ - Using microdescriptors no longer prevents Tor from uploading and
+ downloading hidden service descriptors. Fixes bug 3601.
+
+ o Minor features:
+ - Allow nameservers with IPv6 address. Resolves bug 2574.
+ - Accept attempts to include a password authenticator in the
+ handshake, as supported by SOCKS5. This handles SOCKS clients that
+ don't know how to omit a password when authenticating. Resolves
+ bug 1666.
+ - When configuring a large set of nodes in EntryNodes, and there are
+ enough of them listed as Guard so that we don't need to consider
+ the non-guard entries, prefer the ones listed with the Guard flag.
+ - Check for and recover from inconsistency in the microdescriptor
+ cache. This will make it harder for us to accidentally free a
+ microdescriptor without removing it from the appropriate data
+ structures. Fixes issue 3135; issue noted by "wanoskarnet".
+ - Log SSL state transitions at log level DEBUG, log domain
+ HANDSHAKE. This can be useful for debugging censorship events.
+ Implements ticket 3264.
+ - Add port 6523 (Gobby) to LongLivedPorts. Patch by intrigeri;
+ implements ticket 3439.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (on 0.2.3.1-alpha):
+ - Do not free all general-purpose regular descriptors just
+ because microdescriptor use is enabled. Fixes bug 3113.
+ - Correctly link libevent_openssl when --enable-static-libevent
+ is passed to configure. Fixes bug 3118.
+ - Bridges should not complain that they are unlisted in the consensus:
+ that's more or less the point of being a bridge. Fixes bug 3183.
+ - Report a SIGNAL event to controllers when acting on a delayed
+ SIGNAL NEWNYM command. Previously, we would report a SIGNAL
+ event to the controller if we acted on a SIGNAL NEWNYM command
+ immediately, and otherwise not report a SIGNAL event for the
+ command at all. Fixes bug 3349.
+ - Fix a crash when handling the SIGNAL controller command or
+ reporting ERR-level status events with bufferevents enabled. Found
+ by Robert Ransom. Fixes bug 3367.
+ - Always ship the tor-fw-helper manpage in our release tarballs.
+ Fixes bug 3389. Reported by Stephen Walker.
+ - Fix a class of double-mark-for-close bugs when bufferevents
+ are enabled. Fixes bug 3403.
+ - Update tor-fw-helper to support libnatpmp-20110618; fixes 3434.
+ - Add SIGNAL to the list returned by the 'GETINFO events/names'
+ control-port command. Fixes part of bug 3465.
+ - Prevent using negative indices during unit test runs when read_all()
+ fails. Spotted by coverity.
+ - Fix a rare memory leak when checking the nodelist without it being
+ present. Found by coverity.
+ - Only try to download a microdescriptor-flavored consensus from
+ a directory cache that provides them.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (on 0.2.2.x and earlier):
+ - Assert that hidden-service-related operations are not performed
+ using single-hop circuits. Previously, Tor would assert that
+ client-side streams are not attached to single-hop circuits,
+ but not that other sensitive operations on the client and service
+ side are not performed using single-hop circuits. Fixes bug 3332;
+ bugfix on 0.0.6.
+ - Don't publish a new relay descriptor when we reload our onion key,
+ unless the onion key has actually changed. Fixes bug 3263 and
+ resolves another cause of bug 1810. Bugfix on 0.1.1.11-alpha.
+ - Allow GETINFO fingerprint to return a fingerprint even when
+ we have not yet built a router descriptor. Fixes bug 3577;
+ bugfix on 0.2.0.1-alpha.
+ - Make 'tor --digests' list hashes of all Tor source files.
+ Bugfix on 0.2.2.4-alpha; fixes bug 3427.
+
+ o Code simplification and refactoring:
+ - Use tor_sscanf() in place of scanf() in more places through the
+ code. This makes us a little more locale-independent, and
+ should help shut up code-analysis tools that can't tell
+ a safe sscanf string from a dangerous one.
+ - Use tt_assert(), not tor_assert(), for checking for test failures.
+ This makes the unit tests more able to go on in the event that
+ one of them fails.
+ - Split connection_about_to_close() into separate functions for each
+ connection type.
+
+ o Build changes:
+ - On Windows, we now define the _WIN32_WINNT macros only if they
+ are not already defined. This lets the person building Tor decide,
+ if they want, to require a later version of Windows.
+
+
Changes in version 0.2.2.30-rc - 2011-07-07
Tor 0.2.2.30-rc is the first release candidate for the Tor 0.2.2.x
series. It fixes a few smaller bugs, but generally appears stable.
