 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.

   o Minor features:
