Changes in version 0.2.2.25-alpha - 2011-04-28
Tor 0.2.2.25-alpha fixes many bugs: hidden service clients are more
robust, routers no longer overreport their bandwidth, Win7 should crash
a little less, and NEWNYM (as used by Vidalia's "new identity" button)
now prevents hidden service-related activity from being linkable. It
provides more information to Vidalia so you can see if your bridge is
working. Also, 0.2.2.25-alpha revamps the Entry/Exit/ExcludeNodes and
StrictNodes configuration options to make them more reliable, more
understandable, and more regularly applied. If you use those options,
please see the revised documentation for them in the manual page.
o Major bugfixes:
- Relays were publishing grossly inflated bandwidth values because
they were writing their state files wrong--now they write the
correct value. Also, resume reading bandwidth history from the
state file correctly. Fixes bug 2704; bugfix on 0.2.2.23-alpha.
