client authentication, but in the future it will store the keys for
onion services themselves, and eventually relays.  In this release it
is still missing some import functionality for interoparability;

the interface is likely to change significantly.

Work on our RPC subsystem has also continued; we have achieved several
preqequisites needed for applications' SOCKS connections to
prerequisites needed for applications' SOCKS connections to
integrate correctly with the RPC subsystem.
