exist, with a really exciting roadmap ahead. More on that soon!

Thanks to @bitmold @sisbell @pgerber and @eighthave for all the great
work, not to mention the core Tor dev team making all things mobile
better every day!

Highlights include:

* True arm64 tor binaries now!
* Key fixes to VPN mode to handle loss of network access
* Improvements to Tor idle/sleep behavior and resume after network drops
... and much more!
