+Changes in version 0.2.7.5 - 2015-11-20
|
|
|
+ The Tor 0.2.7 release series is dedicated to the memory of Tor user
|
|
|
+ and privacy advocate Caspar Bowden (1961-2015). Caspar worked
|
|
|
+ tirelessly to advocate human rights regardless of national borders,
|
|
|
+ and oppose the encroachments of mass surveillance. He opposed national
|
|
|
+ exceptionalism, he brought clarity to legal and policy debates, he
|
|
|
+ understood and predicted the impact of mass surveillance on the world,
|
|
|
+ and he laid the groundwork for resisting it. While serving on the Tor
|
|
|
+ Project's board of directors, he brought us his uncompromising focus
|
|
|
+ on technical excellence in the service of humankind. Caspar was an
|
|
|
+ inimitable force for good and a wonderful friend. He was kind,
|
|
|
+ humorous, generous, gallant, and believed we should protect one
|
|
|
+ another without exception. We honor him here for his ideals, his
|
|
|
+ efforts, and his accomplishments. Please honor his memory with works
|
|
|
+ that would make him proud.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Tor 0.2.7.5 is the first stable release in the Tor 0.2.7 series.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ The 0.2.7 series adds a more secure identity key type for relays,
|
|
|
+ improves cryptography performance, resolves several longstanding
|
|
|
+ hidden-service performance issues, improves controller support for
|
|
|
+ hidden services, and includes small bugfixes and performance
|
|
|
+ improvements throughout the program. This release series also includes
|
|
|
+ more tests than before, and significant simplifications to which parts
|
|
|
+ of Tor invoke which others.
