026e7987ad Sanity-check consensus param values
We need to make sure that the worst thing that a weird consensus param
can do to us is to break our Tor (and only if the other Tors are
reliably broken in the same way) so that the majority of directory
authorities can't pull any attacks that are worse than the DoS that
they can trigger by simply shutting down.

One of these worse things was the cbtnummodes parameter, which could
lead to heap corruption on some systems if the value was sufficiently
large.

This commit fixes this particular issue and also introduces sanity
checking for all consensus parameters.

31b69027d3 Specified grammars for orconn-status and entry-guards for Tor versions 0.1.2.2-alpha through 0.2.2.1-alpha with feature VERBOSE_NAMES turned off. 2010-12-01 12:44:48 -05:00

45c302efe0 Correct information about support for guards being called helper nodes.
The spec stated that support for the helper-nodes command would be removed
in 0.1.3.x, however support for this command is still in Tor. Updated the spec
to reflect this and added a node that the command is deprecated.

87158368dc Correct grammars to reflect that VERBOSE_NAMES is part of the protocol.
Several updates to grammars for events and GETINFO results.  All relate
to the fact that LongName has replaced ServerID since 0.2.2.1-alpha. See
documentation of VERBOSE_NAMES for more information. The following
grammars were changed:
  * orconn-status GETINFO result
  * entry-guards GETINFO result
  * Path general token
  * OR Connection status changed event
  * New descriptors available event
In all cases a note was added about when the old grammar applies.

608bad6e32 Several changes to the way tokens describing servers are documented.
(1) Made the wording of the comments consistant with token names.
Digest/Fingerprint and Name/Nickname were being used interchangeably.
Better to just use Fingerprint and Nickname becuase they are the names
of the tokens.

(2) Places the tokens currently in use before the tokens used in older
versions.  ServerSpec should be documented before ServerID.

(3) Added a note to the comments about ServerID that cross reference
the VERBOSE_FEATURE, allowing users to see when and why ServerID was
replaced with LongName.

cff180f8b0 Clarify description of FEATURES in control-spec.
(1) On by default is a bad way to describe features. Rather, they
are always on and should be viewed as a part of the control
protocol. Updated the wording in USEFEATURE to reflect this.

(2) Made descriptions of Tor versions consistant across all
features. There is the version in which a feature was introduced and
the version in which it became part of the protocol.

(3) Reworded the description of the VERBOSE_NAMES feature. The
previous wording describes the way things used to be first. Better to
lead with the current state of things and then describe how it differs
from old versions.

fcdf1470c0 Remove everything related to os x expert package
We decided to no longer ship expert packages for OS X because they're a
lot of trouble to keep maintained and confuse users. For those who want
a tor on OS X without Vidalia, macports is a fine option. Alternatively,
building from source is easy, too.

The polipo stuff that is still required for the Vidalia bundle build can
now be found in the torbrowser repository,
git://git.torproject.org/torbrowser.git.
