interim 0.1.1.17-rc changelog

Changes in version 0.1.1.17-rc - 2006-03-xx

  o Major fixes:

    - Clients and servers since 0.1.1.10-alpha have been expiring

      connections whenever they are idle for 5 minutes and they *do*

      have circuits on them. Oops. With this new version, clients will

      discard entry guards and avoid choosing entry guards running these

      flawed versions.

  o Little fixes:

    - Resume building on irix64, netbsd 2.0, etc.

    - Fix memory leak when uncompressing concatenated zlib streams.

    - Make the v2 dir's "Fast" flag based on median capacity, just like

      "Stable" is based on median uptime. Name everything in the top

      7/8 Fast, and only the top 1/2 gets to be a Guard.

  o Add lefkada.eecs.harvard.edu as a fourth authoritative directory

    server.

  o New config options rather than constants in the code:

    - SocksTimeout: How long do we let a socks connection wait

      unattached before we fail it?

    - CircuitBuildTimeout: Cull non-open circuits that were born

      at least this many seconds ago.

    - CircuitIdleTimeout: Cull open clean circuits that were born

      at least this many seconds ago.

Changes in version 0.1.1.16-rc - 2006-03-18

  o Bugfixes on 0.1.1.15-rc:

    - Fix assert when the controller asks to attachstream a connect-wait
