-    - Tor can now be configured to read a GeoIP file from disk in one of two
-      formats.  This can be used by controllers to map IPs to countries.

-      blocked.

+    - Bridge directory authorities now do reachability testing on the

+      controller on "getinfo ns/purpose/bridge", and also dump summaries
+      to a file periodically.
 
   o Minor bugfixes:
     - The fix in 0.2.0.12-alpha cleared the "hsdir" flag in v3 network

 this one instead.  Even if this file is out of date, Tor can still use
 it to learn about directory mirrors, so it doesn't need to put load on
