+Changes in version 0.2.2.14-alpha - 2010-06-30
+ o Major bugfixes:
+ - Tor directory authorities no longer crash when started with a
+ cached-microdesc-consensus file in their data directory. Bugfix on
+ 0.2.2.6-alpha, fixes bug 1532.
+ - Treat an unset $HOME like an empty $HOME rather than triggering an
+ assert. Fixes bug 1522; bugfix on tor-0.0.8pre1.
+
+ o Major features:
+ - Move to the June 2010 Maxmind GeoLite country db (rather than the
+ June 2009 ip-to-country GeoIP db) for our statistics that count
+ how many users relays are seeing from each country. Now we have
+ more accurate data for many African countries.
+ - Port Tor to build and run correctly on Windows CE systems, using
+ the wcecompat library. Contributed by Valerio Lupi.
+ - New "--enable-gcc-hardening" ./configure flag to turn on gcc
+ compile time hardening options. It ensures that signed ints have
+ defined behavior (-fwrapv), -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 is enabled
+ (requiring -O2), stack smashing protection with canaries
+ (-fstack-protector-all), ASLR protection if supported by the
+ kernel (-fPIE, -pie). Additional security related warnings are
+ enabled. Verified to work on Mac OS X and Debian Lenny.
+ - New "--enable-linker-hardening" ./configure flag to turn on ELF
+ specific hardening features (relro, now). This does not work with
+ Mac OS X or any other non-ELF binary format.
+
+ o New directory authorities:
+ - Set up maatuska (run by Linus Nordberg) as the eighth v3 directory
+ authority.
+
+ o Minor features:
+ - New config option "WarnUnsafeSocks 0" disables the warning that
+ occurs whenever Tor receives only an IP address instead of a
+ hostname. Setups that do DNS locally over Tor are fine, and we
+ shouldn't spam the logs in that case.
+ - Convert the HACKING file to asciidoc, and add a few new sections
+ to it, explaining how we use Git, how we make changelogs, and
+ what should go in a patch.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes:
+ - Build correctly on OSX with zlib 1.2.4 and higher with all warnings
+ enabled.
+ - When a2x fails, mention that the user could disable manpages instead
+ of trying to fix their asciidoc installation.
+ - Where available, use Libevent 2.0's periodic timers so that our
+ once-per-second cleanup code gets called even more closely to
+ once per second than it would otherwise. Fixes bug 943.
+ - If you run a bridge that listens on multiple IP addresses, and
+ some user configures a bridge address that uses a different IP
+ address than your bridge writes in its router descriptor, and the
+ user doesn't specify an identity key, their Tor would discard the
+ descriptor because "it isn't one of our configured bridges", and
+ fail to bootstrap. Now believe the descriptor and bootstrap anyway.
+ Bugfix on 0.2.0.3-alpha.
+ - If OpenSSL fails to make a duplicate of a private or public key, log
+ an error message and try to exit cleanly. May help with debugging
+ if bug 1209 ever remanifests.
+ - Save a couple bytes in memory allocation every time we escape
+ certain characters in a string. Patch from Florian Zumbiehl.
+ - Make it explicit that we don't cannibalize one-hop circuits. This
+ happens in the wild, but doesn't turn out to be a problem because
+ we fortunately don't use those circuits. Many thanks to outofwords
+ for the initial analysis and to swissknife who confirmed that
+ two-hop circuits are actually created.
+

Changes in version 0.2.1.26 - 2010-05-02
Tor 0.2.1.26 addresses the recent connection and memory overload
problems we've been seeing on relays, especially relays with their
