Changes in version 0.2.2.17-alpha - 2010-09-30
+ Tor 0.2.2.17-alpha introduces a feature to make it harder for clients
+ to use one-hop circuits (which can put the exit relays at higher risk,
+ plus unbalance the network); fixes a big bug in bandwidth accounting
+ for relays that want to limit their monthly bandwidth use; fixes a
+ big pile of bugs in how clients tolerate temporary network failure;
+ and makes our adaptive circuit build timeout feature (which improves
+ client performance if your network is fast while not breaking things
+ if your network is slow) better handle bad networks.

o Major features:
- Exit relays now try harder to block exit attempts from unknown
relays, to make it harder for people to use them as one-hop proxies

to a client. Fixes bug 1912; bugfix on 0.2.2.7-alpha.
+ o Major bugfixes (on the circuit build timeout feature, 0.2.2.x):
+ - Ignore cannibalized circuits when recording circuit build times.
+ This should provide for a minor performance improvement for hidden
+ service users using 0.2.2.14-alpha, and should remove two spurious
+ notice log messages. Bugfix on 0.2.2.14-alpha; fixes bug 1740.
+ - Simplify the logic that causes us to decide if the network is
+ unavailable for purposes of recording circuit build times. If we
+ receive no cells whatsoever for the entire duration of a circuit's
+ full measured lifetime, the network is probably down. Also ignore
+ one-hop directory fetching circuit timeouts when calculating our
+ circuit build times. These changes should hopefully reduce the
+ cases where we see ridiculous circuit build timeouts for people
+ with spotty wireless connections. Fixes part of bug 1772; bugfix
+ on 0.2.2.2-alpha.
+ - Prevent the circuit build timeout from becoming larger than
+ the maximum build time we have ever seen. Also, prevent the time
+ period for measurement circuits from becoming larger than twice that
+ value. Fixes the other part of bug 1772; bugfix on 0.2.2.2-alpha.
