+  o Major features (code organization):
+    - Tor now includes a generic publish-subscribe message-passing subsystem
+      that we can use to organize intermodule dependencies.  We hope to use
+      this to reduce dependencies between modules that don't need to be
+      related, and to generally simplify our codebase. Closes ticket 28226.
