     - Schedule multiple in-progress consensus downloads during client

   o Major features (relay):
-    - When Tor is started as root on Linux and told to switch user ID, it
-      can now retain the capabilitity to bind to low ports.  By default,
-      Tor will do this only when it's switching user ID and some low

+
+  o Minor features (security):
+    - Adjust Tor's use of OpenSSL's RNG APIs so that they absolutely,
+      positively are not allowed to fail. Previously we depended on
+      internals about OpenSSL behavior. Closes ticket 17686.
+    - Never use the system entropy output directly for anything besides
+      seeding the PRNG. When we want to generate important keys, instead
+      of using system entropy directly, hash it with the PRNG stream.
+      This may help resist certain attacks based on broken OS entropy
+      implementations. Closes part of ticket 17694.
+    - Set unused entires in a smartlist to NULL. This helped catch
+      a (harmless) bug, and shouldn't affect performance too much.
+      Implements ticket 17026.
+    - Use SecureMemoryWipe() function to securely clean memory on
+      Windows. Implements feature 17986.
+    - Use explicit_bzero or memset_s when present. Previously, we'd use
+      OpenSSL's OPENSSL_cleanse() function. Closes ticket 7419; patches

+  o Minor features (security, clock):
+    - Warn when the system clock is set back in time (when the state
+      file was last written in the future). Tor doesn't know that

   o Minor bugfixes (logging):
-    - In log messages that include a function name, use __FUNCTION__ instead
-      of __PRETTY_FUNCTION__.  In GCC, these are synonymous, but with clang
-      __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ has extra information we don't need.
-      Fixes bug 16563; bugfix on 0.0.2pre8. Fix by Tom van der Woerdt.
-    - Remove needless quotes from a log message about unparseable addresses.
-      Fixes bug 17843; bugfix on 0.2.3.3-alpha.

   o Minor bugfixes (portability):
-    - Remove an #endif from configure.ac so that we correctly detect
-      the presence of in6_addr.s6_addr32. Fixes bug 17923; bugfix on
-      0.2.0.13-alpha.

   o Minor bugfixes (relays):
     - Check that both the ORPort and DirPort (if present) are reachable
       before publishing a relay descriptor. Otherwise, relays publish a
       descriptor with DirPort 0 when the DirPort reachability test takes
-      longer than the ORPort reachability test.

   o Minor bugfixes (safe logging):
-    - When logging a malformed hostname received through socks4, scrub it
-      if SafeLogging says we should. Fixes bug 17419; bugfix on 0.1.1.16-rc.
-
-  o Minor bugfixes (security):
-    - Make memwipe() do nothing when passed a NULL pointer
-      or zero size. Check size argument to memwipe() for underflow.
-      Fixes bug 18089; bugfix on 0.2.3.25 and 0.2.4.6-alpha.
-      Reported by "gk", patch by "teor".
-
-  o Minor bugfixes (security, exit policies):
-    - ExitPolicyRejectPrivate rejects more private addresses by default.
-      Specifically, it rejects
-      the relay's outbound bind addresses (if configured), and
-      the relay's configured port addresses (such as ORPort and DirPort).

   o Minor bugfixes (statistics code):
     - Consistently check for overflow in round_*_to_next_multiple_of
       functions, and add unit tests with additional and maximal values.
       Fixes part of bug 13192; bugfix on 0.2.2.1-alpha.
-    - Handle edge cases in the laplace functions: avoid division by zero,
-      avoid taking the log of zero, and silence clang type conversion
-      warnings using round and trunc.  Add unit tests for edge cases with
-      maximal values. Fixes part of bug 13192; bugfix on 0.2.6.2-alpha.

   o Code simplification and refactoring:
     - Extract the more complicated parts of circuit_mark_for_close into
-      a new function run periodically before connections are freed.
-      This change removes more than half of the functions currently
-      in the "blob".
-      Closes ticket 17218.
-    - Clean up a little duplicated code in crypto_expand_key_material_TAP.
-      Closes ticket 17587; patch from "pfrankw".

     - Decouple the list of streams needing to be attached to circuits
       from the overall connection list. This change makes it possible to
       attach streams quickly while both simplifying Tor's callgraph and
-      avoiding O(N) scans of the entire connection list.  Closes ticket

     - When a direct directory request fails immediately on launch,
       instead of relaunching that request from inside the code that
-      launches it, instead mark the connection for teardown. This
-      change simplifies Tor's callback and prevents the directory-
-      request launching code from invoking itself recursively.

   o Removed features:
     - Remove client-side support for connecting to Tor servers running
-      versions of Tor before 0.2.3.6-alpha. These servers didn't
-      support the v3 TLS handshake protocol, and are no longer allowed
-      on the Tor network.  Implements the client side of ticket
-      11150. Based on patches by Tom van der Woerdt.
