 I think it's a good time for a 0.3.2-alpha release.

 The major changes are the following:
 - Every tor config option should be set in the torrc file. Those settings
 inside vidalia.conf will be ignored now. The only options that need to be
 configured inside vidalia.conf are: TorExecutable, Torrc, ControlPassword
 (if not random), UseRandomPassword. Remember that now, every relative path
 will have the path to Vidalia's binary as the start point.
 - The TBB plugin configuration has changed, for OSX it should be the
 following:

 {{{

 BrowserDirectory=../../../
 BrowserExecutable=Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin
 ProfileDirectory=../../Library/Application
 Support/Firefox/Profiles/profile
 DefaultProfileDirectory=Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/defaults/profile
 PluginsDirectory=../../MacOS/Data/plugins
 DefaultPluginsDirectory=../../MacOS/Data/plugins

 }}}

 BrowserDirectory will be the base path to the rest of the options. If
 BrowserDirectory is relative, it'll have its starting point at vidalia's
 binary path. The rest will be used like this: BrowserDirectory + "/" +
 PluginsDirectory (for example).

 There are a lot of other changes, but I don't think they will modify the
 distribution of Vidalia.

 The tarball/sig can be found in here:

 Also, there's a new tbb plugin version that should be used with this
 release. You can use the old one, but with the new one there is no need to
 use a different plugin for OSX.
