Changes:
Tor 0.2.1.8-alpha fixes some crash bugs in earlier alpha releases,
builds better on unusual platforms like Solaris and old OS X, and fixes
a variety of other issues.
Changes in version 0.2.1.8-alpha - 2008-12-08
Major features:
* New DirPortFrontPage option that takes an html file and publishes
it as "/" on the DirPort. Now relay operators can provide a
disclaimer without needing to set up a separate webserver. There's
a sample disclaimer in contrib/tor-exit-notice.html.
Security fixes:
* When the client is choosing entry guards, now it selects at most
one guard from a given relay family. Otherwise we could end up with
all of our entry points into the network run by the same operator.
Suggested by Camilo Viecco. Fix on 0.1.1.11-alpha.
Major bugfixes:
* Fix a DOS opportunity during the voting signature collection process
at directory authorities. Spotted by rovv. Bugfix on 0.2.0.x.
* Fix a possible segfault when establishing an exit connection. Bugfix
on 0.2.1.5-alpha.
Minor bugfixes:
* Get file locking working on win32. Bugfix on 0.2.1.6-alpha. Fixes
bug 859.
* Made Tor a little less aggressive about deleting expired
certificates. Partial fix for bug 854.
* Stop doing unaligned memory access that generated bus errors on
sparc64. Bugfix on 0.2.0.10-alpha. Fix for bug 862.
* Fix a crash bug when changing EntryNodes from the controller. Bugfix
on 0.2.1.6-alpha. Fix for bug 867. Patched by Sebastian.
* Make USR2 log-level switch take effect immediately. Bugfix on
0.1.2.8-beta.
* If one win32 nameserver fails to get added, continue adding the
rest, and don't automatically fail.
