+  Tor 0.2.4.17-rc is the third release candidate for the Tor 0.2.4.x
+  series. It adds an emergency step to help us tolerate the massive
+  influx of users: 0.2.4 clients using the new (faster and safer) "NTor"
+  circuit-level handshakes now effectively jump the queue compared to
+  the 0.2.3 clients using "TAP" handshakes. This release also fixes a
+  big bug hindering bridge reachability tests.

     - If the time to download the next old-style networkstatus is in
