Changes in version 0.2.2.17-alpha - 2010-09-30
  Tor 0.2.2.17-alpha introduces a feature to make it harder for clients
  to use one-hop circuits (which can put the exit relays at higher risk,
  plus unbalance the network); fixes a big bug in bandwidth accounting
  for relays that want to limit their monthly bandwidth use; fixes a
  big pile of bugs in how clients tolerate temporary network failure;
  and makes our adaptive circuit build timeout feature (which improves
  client performance if your network is fast while not breaking things
  if your network is slow) better handle bad networks.

  o Major features:
    - Exit relays now try harder to block exit attempts from unknown
      relays, to make it harder for people to use them as one-hop proxies

      would not get used at all unless no other bridges are available
      to a client. Fixes bug 1912; bugfix on 0.2.2.7-alpha.

  o Major bugfixes (on the circuit build timeout feature, 0.2.2.x):
    - Ignore cannibalized circuits when recording circuit build times.
      This should provide for a minor performance improvement for hidden
      service users using 0.2.2.14-alpha, and should remove two spurious
      notice log messages. Bugfix on 0.2.2.14-alpha; fixes bug 1740.
    - Simplify the logic that causes us to decide if the network is
      unavailable for purposes of recording circuit build times. If we
      receive no cells whatsoever for the entire duration of a circuit's
      full measured lifetime, the network is probably down. Also ignore
      one-hop directory fetching circuit timeouts when calculating our
      circuit build times. These changes should hopefully reduce the
      cases where we see ridiculous circuit build timeouts for people
      with spotty wireless connections. Fixes part of bug 1772; bugfix
      on 0.2.2.2-alpha.
    - Prevent the circuit build timeout from becoming larger than
      the maximum build time we have ever seen. Also, prevent the time
      period for measurement circuits from becoming larger than twice that
      value. Fixes the other part of bug 1772; bugfix on 0.2.2.2-alpha.

  Tor 0.2.2.16-alpha fixes a variety of old stream fairness bugs (most
  evident at exit relays), and also continues to resolve all the little
  bugs that have been filling up trac lately.

  Tor 0.2.2.15-alpha fixes a big bug in hidden service availability,
  fixes a variety of other bugs that were preventing performance
  experiments from moving forward, fixes several bothersome memory leaks,
  and generally closes a lot of smaller bugs that have been filling up
  trac lately.

  o Major bugfixes:
    - Stop assigning the HSDir flag to relays that disable their
      DirPort (and thus will refuse to answer directory requests). This
