+Changes in version 0.2.9.4-alpha - 2016-10-17
+ Foo bar
+
+ o Major features (subprotocol versions):
+ - Tor directory authorities now vote on a set of recommended subprotocol
+ versions, and on a set of required subprotocol versions. Clients and
+ relays that lack support for a _required_ suprotocol version will not
+ start; those that lack support for a _recommended_ subprotocol version
+ will warn the user to upgrade. Closes ticket 19958; implements part of
+ proposal 264.
+ - Tor now uses "subprotocol versions" to indicate
+ compatibility. Previously, versions of Tor looked at the declared Tor
+ version of a relay to tell whether they could use a given feature.
+ Now, they should be able to rely on its declared subprotocol versions.
+ This change allows compatible implementations of the Tor protocol(s) to
+ exist without declaring compatibility with pretending to be particular
+ releases of Tor itself. Closes ticket 19958; implements part of
+ proposal 264.
+
+ o Minor feature (fallback directories):
+ - Remove broken fallbacks from the hard-coded fallback directory list.
+ Closes ticket 20190; patch by teor.
+
+ o Minor features (client, directory):
+ - Since authorities now omit all routers that lack the Running and Valid
+ flags, we assume that any relay listed in the consensus must
+ have those flags. Closes ticket 20001; implements part of proposal
+ 272.
+
+ o Minor features (compilation, portability):
+ - Tor now compiles correctly on MacOS 10.12 (aka "Sierra"). Closes
+ ticket 20241.
+
+ o Minor features (development tools, etags):
+ - Teach the "make tags" Makefile target how to correctly find
+ "MOCK_IMPL" function definitions. Patch from nherring; closes
+ ticket 16869.
+
+ o Minor features (unix domain sockets):
+ - When configuring a unix domain socket for a SocksPort,
+ ControlPort, or Hidden service, you can now wrap the address
+ in quotes, using C-style escapes inside the quotes. This
+ allows unix domain socket paths to contain spaces.
+
+ o Minor features (geoip):
+ - Update geoip and geoip6 to the October 4 2016 Maxmind GeoLite2
+ Country database.
+
+ o Minor features (virtual addresses):
+ - Increase the maximum number of bits for the IPv6 virtual network prefix
+ from 16 to 104. In this way, the condition for address allocation is less
+ restrictive.
+ Closes ticket 20151; feature on 0.2.4.7-alpha.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (address discovery):
+ - Stop reordering IP addresses returned by the OS.
+ This makes is more likely that Tor will guess the same relay IP address every time.
+ Fixes issue 20163; bugfix on 0.2.7.1-alpha, ticket 17027.
+ Reported by René Mayrhofer, patch by "cypherpunks".
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (client, unix domain sockets):
+ - Disable IsolateClientAddr when using AF_UNIX backed SocksPorts
+ as the client address is meaningless. Fixes bug 20261; bugfix on
+ 0.2.6.3-alpha.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (compilation, OpenBSD):
+ - Detect Libevent2 functions correctly on systems that provide
+ libevent2, but where libevent1 is linked with -levent. Fixes bug
+ 19904; bugfix on 0.2.2.24-alpha. Patch from Rubiate.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (configuration):
+ - When parsing quoted configuration values from the torrc file,
+ handle windows line endings correctly. Fixes bug 19167; bugfix on
+ 0.2.0.16-alpha. Patch from "Pingl".
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (getpass):
+ - Defensively fix a non-triggerable heap corruption at do_getpass() tow
+ protect ourselves from mistakes in the future. Fixes bug #19223; bugfix
+ on 0.2.7.3-rc. Bug found by Guido Vranken, patch by nherring.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (hidden service):
+ - Allow hidden services to run on IPv6 addresses even when the
+ IPv6Exit option is not set. Fixes bug 18357; bugfix on
+ 0.2.4.7-alpha.
+
+ o Documentation:
+ - Added module-level internal documentation for 36 C files that
+ previously didn't have a high-level overview.
+
+ o Required libraries:
+ - When building with OpenSSL, Tor now requires version 1.0.1 or later.
+ OpenSSL 1.0.0 and earlier are no longer supported by the OpenSSL team,
+ and should not be used. Closes ticket 20303.
