+Changes in version 0.2.2.15-alpha - 2010-07-2?
+ o Major bugfixes:
+ - Stop assigning the HSDir flag to relays that disable their
+ DirPort (and thus will refuse to answer directory requests). This
+ fix should dramatically improve the reachability of hidden services:
+ hidden services and hidden service clients pick three HSDir relays
+ to store and retrieve the hidden service descriptor, and currently
+ about half of the HSDir relays will refuse to work. Bugfix on
+ 0.2.0.10-alpha; fixes part of bug 1693.
+
+ o Major features:
+ - Lower the maximum weighted-fractional-uptime cutoff to 98%. This
+ should give us approximately 40-50% more Guard-flagged nodes,
+ improving the anonymity the Tor network can provide and also
+ decreasing the dropoff in throughput that relays experience when
+ they first get the Guard flag.
+
+ o Minor features:
+ - Have the controller interface give a more useful message than
+ "Internal Error" in response to failed GETINFO requests.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes:
+ - Alter directory authorities to always consider Exit-flagged nodes
+ as potential Guard nodes in their votes. The actual decision to
+ use Exits as Guards is done in the consensus bandwidth weights.
+ Fixes bug 1294; bugfix on 0.2.2.10-alpha.
+ - When the controller is reporting the purpose of circuits that
+ didn't finish building before the circuit build timeout, it was
+ printing UNKNOWN_13. Now print EXPIRED. Bugfix on 0.2.2.14-alpha.
+ - Fix a bug in the controller interface where "GETINFO ns/asdaskljkl"
+ would return "551 Internal error" rather than "552 Unrecognized key
+ ns/asdaskljkl".
