Changes in version 0.2.4.17-rc - 2013-09-0x
+
+ o Major features:
+ - Relays now process the new "NTor" circuit-level handshake requests
+ with higher priority than the old "TAP" circuit-level handshake
+ requests. We still process some TAP requests to not totally starve
+ 0.2.3 clients when NTor becomes popular. A new consensus parameter
+ "NumNTorsPerTAP" lets us tune the balance later if we need to.
+ Implements ticket 9574.
+
o Major bugfixes:
+ - If the circuit build timeout logic is disabled (via the consensus,
+ or because we are an authority), then don't build testing circuits.
+ Fixes bug 9657; bugfix on 0.2.2.14-alpha.
- Bridges now send AUTH_CHALLENGE cells during their v3 handshakes;
previously they did not, which prevented them from receiving
successful connections from relays for self-test or bandwidth
next microdescriptor networkstatus. Fixes bug 9564; bugfix on
0.2.3.14-alpha.
+ o Minor bugfixes:
+ - Avoid double-closing the listener socket in our socketpair
+ replacement (used on Windows) in the case where the addresses on
+ our opened sockets don't match what we expected. Fixes bug 9400;
+ bugfix on every released Tor version. Found by Coverity.
+
o Minor fixes (config options):
- Avoid overflows when the user sets MaxCircuitDirtiness to a
ridiculously high value, by imposing a (ridiculously high) 30-day
