Hi!
Tor Browser 7.0.6 is ready for testing. Bundles can be found on:
https://people.torproject.org/~gk/builds/7.0.6-build3/
This release includes security updates for Firefox (52.4.0esr) and a new
Tor stable version (0.3.1.7), the first one in the 0.3.1 series. In
addition to that we updated the HTTPS Everywhere and NoScript extensions
we ship. Moreover, we fixed minor usability issues and a bug which,
under particular circumstances, caused tabs to crash after closing one.

Hi all!
Tor Browser 7.5a5 is ready for testing. Bundles can be found on:
https://people.torproject.org/~gk/builds/7.5a5-build4/
Besides the usual Firefox security nd extensions updates this alpha
contains a bunch of long-awaited features:
1) We ship Tor 0.3.2.1-alpha, the first alpha release in the 0.3.2
series, with support for next generations onion services and a new
circuit scheduler, KIST.[1]
2) Thanks to the work of Jed Davis we are able to ship a content sandbox
for Linux users. While the content sandbox is disabled in Firefox 52 ESR
versions, which Tor Browser is based on, backported patches allow us to
protect our Linux users with the same mechanisms that are provided to
regular Firefox users.
3) The content sandbox is enabled for Windows users as well. While we
still need to clean up our workarounds to get the sandboxing code to
work with our mingw-w64 compiler, we think the enabled sandbox is ready
for a wider testing in our alpha series. Please give it a try if you can.
