o Major bugfixes (bridges):
- - Consider our directory information to have changed when our list of
- bridges changes. Previously, Tor would not re-compute the status of its
- directory information when bridges changed, and therefore would not
- realize that it was no longer able to build circuits. Fixes part of bug
- 29875.
- - Do not count previously configured working bridges towards our total of
- working bridges. Previously, when Tor's list of bridges changed, it
- would think that the old bridges were still usable, and delay fetching
- router descriptors for the new ones. Fixes part of bug 29875; bugfix
- on 0.3.0.1-alpha.

o Major bugfixes (Flow Control, SENDME):
- - The decrement of the stream-level package window was done in a log_debug()
- statement meaning that if the debug logs were not enabled, the decrement
- would never happen and thus the window would be out of sync with the other
- end point. Fixes bug 30628; bugfix on 0.4.1.1-alpha.

o Major bugfixes (Onion service reachability):
- - Properly clean up the introduction point map and associated state when
- circuits change purpose from onion service circuits to pathbias,
- measurement, or other circuit types. This should fix some instances of
- introduction point failure. Fixes bug 29034; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha.

o Minor features (authenticated SENDME):
- - Ensure that there is enough randomness on every circuit
- to prevent an attacker from successfully predicting what SENDME cells
- they will need to send: at a random interval, if we have not send
- randomness already, leave some extra space at the end of a cell that
- we can fill with random bytes. Closes ticket 26846.

o Minor features (testing):

so that if a test fails, we can learn why. Part of ticket 28878.

o Minor bugfixes (shutdown, libevent, memory safety):
