+Changes in version 0.2.8.8 - 2016-09-23
+  Tor 0.2.8.8 fixes two crash bugs present in previous versions of the
+  0.2.8.x series. Relays running 0.2.8.x should upgrade, as should users
+  who select public relays as their bridges.
+
+  o Major bugfixes (crash):
+    - Fix a complicated crash bug that could affect Tor clients
+      configured to use bridges when replacing a networkstatus consensus
+      in which one of their bridges was mentioned. OpenBSD users saw
+      more crashes here, but all platforms were potentially affected.
+      Fixes bug 20103; bugfix on 0.2.8.2-alpha.
+
+  o Major bugfixes (relay, OOM handler):
+    - Fix a timing-dependent assertion failure that could occur when we
+      tried to flush from a circuit after having freed its cells because
+      of an out-of-memory condition. Fixes bug 20203; bugfix on
+      0.2.8.1-alpha. Thanks to "cypherpunks" for help diagnosing
+      this one.
+
+  o Minor feature (fallback directories):
+    - Remove broken fallbacks from the hard-coded fallback directory
+      list. Closes ticket 20190; patch by teor.
+
+  o Minor features (geoip):
+    - Update geoip and geoip6 to the September 6 2016 Maxmind GeoLite2
+      Country database.
+
+
 Changes in version 0.2.8.7 - 2016-08-24
   Tor 0.2.8.7 fixes an important bug related to the ReachableAddresses
   option in 0.2.8.6, and replaces a retiring bridge authority. Everyone
