0.2.16  24-Jan-2012

  o Make the default data directory in windows be located in the Local

    AppData instead of the Roaming one. Fixes bug 2319.

  o Do not launch Firefox with every CIRCUIT_ESTABLISHED signal, do it

    only if Firefox isn't open yet. Fixes bug 2943.

  o Uses TAKEOWNERSHIP and __OwningControllerProcess to avoid leaving

    tor running in background if Vidalia exits unexpectedly. Fixes bug

    3463.

  o Attempt to remove port.conf file before using it to avoid a race

    condition between tor and Vidalia. Fixes bug 4048.

  o Do not allow users to check the "My ISP blocks..." checkbox

    without entering any bridges. Also updates the

    documentation. Fixes bug 4290.

  o Check that the authentication-cookie file length is exactly 32

    bytes long. Fixes bug 4304.

  o Explicitly disable ControlPort auto. Fixes bug 4379.

  o Make the non exit relay option backward compatible with Vidalia <

    0.2.14 so that it doesn't confuse users. Fixes bug 4642.

  o Sets the preferred size for the GUI layout so it doesn't squeeze

    widges when the size isn't big enough. Fixes bug 4656.

  o Removes the option to have only HTTPProxy since it does not work

    any more as it used to do with older tor versions. Users should

    use HTTP/HTTPSProxy instead. Fixes bug 4724.

  o Add a hidden configuration option called SkipVersionCheck so

    systems like Tails can force Vidalia to skip checking tor's

    version. Resolves ticket 4736.

  o When Tor has cached enough information it bootstraps faster than

    what takes Vidalia connect to it, so Vidalia does not see the

    event to update the progress bar. Now Vidalia explicitly asks for

    bootstrap-phase when it connects to Tor, and updates the progress

    to what is actually happening instead of hanging in

    "Authenticating to Tor". Fixes bug 4827.

  o Fix size hints in the main window layout so that tilling window

    managers display the window properly. Thanks to Mike Warren for

    the fix. Fixes bug 4907.

  o Provide a way to hide Dock or System Tray icons in OSX. Resolves

    ticket 2163.

  o Vidalia only validates IPv4 bridge lines. IPv6 bridges are now

    available, and there will be pluggable transport bridge lines. So

    the validation is now delegated to Tor through SETCONF.

  o Explicitly disable SocksPort auto by setting it to its default

    (9050). Fixes bug 4598.



0.2.15  07-Oct-2011

  o Draw the bandwidth graph curves based on the local maximum, not

    the global maximum. Fixes bug 2188.
