       break ties by preferring AES256 to AES128.) This resolves bugs
       #11513, #11492, #11498, #11499. Bugs reported by 'cypherpunks'.
       Bugfix on 0.2.4.8-alpha.
+    - Servers now trust themselves to have a better view than clients of
+      which TLS ciphersuites to choose. (Thanks to #11513, the server
+      list is now well-considered, whereas the client list has been
+      chosen mainly for anti-fingerprinting purposes.) Resolves ticket

       Fixes bug 10431; bugfix on 0.2.1.1-alpha.

     - Stop accepting bridge lines containing hostnames. Doing so allowed
       clients to perform DNS requests on the hostnames, which was not
