+Changes in version 0.4.4.5 - 2020-09-15
+ Tor 0.4.4.5 is the first stable release in the 0.4.4.x series. SERIES
+ BLURB GOES HERE.
+
+ Per our support policy, we support each stable release series for nine
+ months after its first stable release, or three months after the first
+ stable release of the next series: whichever is longer. This means
+ that 0.4.4.x will be supported until around June 2021--or later, if
+ 0.4.5.x is later than anticipated.
+
+ Note also that support for 0.4.2.x has just ended; support for 0.4.3
+ will continue until Feb 15, 2021. We still plan to continue supporting
+ 0.3.5.x, our long-term stable series, until Feb 2022.
+
+ Below are the changes since 0.4.4.4-rc. For a complete list of changes
+ since 0.4.3.5, see the ReleaseNotes file.
+
+ o Major bugfixes (onion services, DoS):
+ - Correct handling of parameters for the onion service DoS defense.
+ Previously, the consensus parameters for the onion service DoS
+ defenses were overwriting the parameters set by the service
+ operator using HiddenServiceEnableIntroDoSDefense. Fixes bug
+ 40109; bugfix on 0.4.2.1-alpha.
+
+ o Major bugfixes (stats, onion services):
+ - Fix a bug where we were undercounting the Tor network's total
+ onion service traffic, by ignoring any traffic originating from
+ clients. Now we count traffic from both clients and services.
+ Fixes bug 40117; bugfix on 0.2.6.2-alpha.
+
+ o Minor features (control port):
+ - If a ClientName was specified in ONION_CLIENT_AUTH_ADD for an
+ onion service, display it when we use ONION_CLIENT_AUTH_VIEW.
+ Closes ticket 40089. Patch by Neel Chauhan.
+
+ o Minor features (denial-of-service memory limiter):
+ - Allow the user to configure even lower values for the
+ MaxMemInQueues parameter. Relays now enforce a minimum of 64 MB,
+ when previously the minimum was 256 MB. On clients, there is no
+ minimum. Relays and clients will both warn if the value is set so
+ low that Tor is likely to stop working. Closes ticket 24308.
+
+ o Minor features (tests):
+ - Our "make check" target now runs the unit tests in 8 parallel
+ chunks. Doing this speeds up hardened CI builds by more than a
+ factor of two. Closes ticket 40098.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (guard selection algorithm):
+ - Avoid needless guard-related warning when upgrading from 0.4.3 to
+ 0.4.4. Fixes bug 40105; bugfix on 0.4.4.1-alpha.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (tests):
+ - Fix the behavior of the rend_cache/clean_v2_descs_as_dir when run
+ on its own. Previously, it would exit with an error. Fixes bug
+ 40099; bugfix on 0.2.8.1-alpha.
