 Changes in version 0.1.2.13 - 2007-04-24
-  Tor 0.1.2.13, the first stable release of the 0.1.2.x branch, is
-  finally ready.
-
   This release features some major anonymity fixes, such as safer path
   selection; better client performance; faster bootstrapping, better
   address detection, and better DNS support for servers; write limiting as
   well as read limiting to make servers easier to run; and a huge pile of
   other features and bug fixes. The bundles also ship with Vidalia 0.0.11.

+  free speech on the Internet.

   o Minor fixes:
     - Fix a memory leak when we ask for "all" networkstatuses and we
       get one we don't recognize.

 Changes in version 0.1.2.17 - 2007-08-30
+  Tor 0.1.2.17 features a new Vidalia version in the Windows and OS
+  X bundles. Vidalia 0.0.14 makes authentication required for the
+  ControlPort in the default configuration, which addresses important
+  security risks. Everybody who uses Vidalia (or another controller)
+  should upgrade.
+
+  In addition, this Tor update fixes major load balancing problems with
+  path selection, which should speed things up a lot once many people
+  have upgraded.
+
   o Major bugfixes (security):
     - We removed support for the old (v0) control protocol. It has been
       deprecated since Tor 0.1.1.1-alpha, and keeping it secure has

 Changes in version 0.1.2.16 - 2007-08-01
+  Tor 0.1.2.16 fixes a critical security vulnerability that allows a
+  remote attacker in certain situations to rewrite the user's torrc
+  configuration file. This can completely compromise anonymity of users
+  in most configurations, including those running the Vidalia bundles,
+  TorK, etc. Or worse.
+
   o Major security fixes:
     - Close immediately after missing authentication on control port;
       do not allow multiple authentication attempts.
 
 
 Changes in version 0.1.2.15 - 2007-07-17
+  Tor 0.1.2.15 fixes several crash bugs, fixes some anonymity-related
+  problems, fixes compilation on BSD, and fixes a variety of other
+  bugs. Everybody should upgrade.

   o Major bugfixes (compilation):
     - Fix compile on FreeBSD/NetBSD/OpenBSD. Oops.
