Bug found and fixed by "optimist"; bugfix on 0.1.2.8-beta. + + o Major features: + - Add support for dynamic OpenSSL hardware crypto acceleration engines + via new AccelName and AccelDir options. + + o Minor features: + - New --digests command-line switch to output the digests of the + source files Tor was built with. + - The "torify" script now uses torsocks where available. + - The memarea code now uses a sentinel value at the end of each area + to make sure nothing writes beyond the end of an area. This might + help debug some conceivable causes of bug 930. + - Directories that are configured with the --enable-geoip-stats flag + now write their GeoIP stats to disk exactly every 24 hours. + - Exit nodes can write statistics on the number of exit streams and + transferred bytes per port to disk every 24 hours. To enable this, + run configure with the --enable-exit-stats option, and set + "ExitPortStatistics 1" in your torrc. + + o Minor bugfixes + - Hidden service clients didn't use a cached service descriptor that + was older than 15 minutes, but wouldn't fetch a new one either. Now, + use a cached descriptor no matter how old it is and only fetch a new + one when all introduction points fail. Fix for bug 997. Patch from + Marcus Griep. + - Fix refetching of hidden service descriptors when all introduction + points have turned out to not work. Fixes more of bug 997. + + o Deprecated and removed features: + - The controller no longer accepts the old obsolete "addr-mappings/" + GETINFO value. + - Hidden services no longer publish version 0 descriptors, and clients + do not request or use version 0 descriptors. However, the authorities + still accept and serve version 0 descriptors when contacted by older + hidden services/clients. + - The EXTENDED_EVENTS and VERBOSE_NAMES controller features are now + always on; using them is necessary for correct forward-compatible + controllers. + + - Changes in version 0.2.1.17-rc - 2009-07-02 + Changes in version 0.2.1.17-rc - 2009-07-07 o Major features: - Clients now use the bandwidth values in the consensus, rather than the bandwidth values in each relay descriptor. This approach opens
