 Changes in version 0.2.7.5 - 2015-11-1?
+  The Tor 0.2.7 release series is dedicated to the memory of Tor user
+  and privacy advocate Caspar Bowden (1961-2015). Caspar worked
+  tirelessly to advocate human rights regardless of national borders,
+  and oppose the encroachments of mass surveillance. He opposed national
+  exceptionalism; he brought clarity to legal and policy debates; he
+  understood and predicted the impact of mass surveillance on the world;
+  and he laid the groundwork for resisting it. While serving on the Tor
+  Project's board of directors, he brought us his uncompromising focus
+  on technical excellence in the service of humankind. Caspar was an
+  inimitable force for good and a wonderful friend. He was kind,
+  humorous, generous, gallant, and believed we should protect one
+  another without exception. We honor him here for his ideals, his
+  efforts, and his accomplishments. Please honor his memory with works
+  that would make him proud.
+
   Tor 0.2.7.5 is the first stable release in the Tor 0.2.7 series.

   improves cryptography performance, resolves several longstanding
   hidden-service performance issues, improves controller support for
   hidden services, and includes small bugfixes and performance
-  improvements throughout the program.  This release series also
-  includes more tests than before, and significant simplifications
-  to which parts of Tor invoke which others.  For a full list of
-  changes, see below.
