Changes in version 0.2.0.20-rc - 2008-02-24
Tor 0.2.0.20-rc is the first release candidate for the 0.2.0 series. It
makes more progress towards normalizing Tor's TLS handshake, makes
hidden services work better again, helps relays bootstrap if they don't
know their IP address, adds optional support for linking in openbsd's
allocator or tcmalloc, allows really fast relays to scale past 15000
sockets, and fixes a bunch of minor bugs reported by Veracode.
o Major features:
- Enable the revised TLS handshake based on the one designed by
Steven Murdoch in proposal 124, as revised in proposal 130. It

--enable-openbsd-malloc to get the replacement malloc code.
- Add a --with-tcmalloc option to the configure script to link
against tcmalloc (if present). Does not yet search for

cached-descriptors file. Patch by freddy77; bugfix on 0.1.2.

- We were comparing the raw BridgePassword entry with a base64'ed
version of it, when handling a "/tor/networkstatus-bridges"
directory request. Now compare correctly. Noticed by Veracode.
