-  o Major bugfixes (protover, voting):
-    - Revise Rust implementation of protover to use a more memory-
-      efficient voting algorithm and corresponding data structures, thus
-      avoiding a potential (but small impact) DoS attack where specially
-      crafted protocol strings would expand to several potential
-      megabytes in memory. In the process, several portions of code were
-      revised to be methods on new, custom types, rather than functions
-      taking interchangeable types, thus increasing type safety of the
-      module. Custom error types and handling were added as well, in
-      order to facilitate better error dismissal/handling in outside
-      crates and avoid mistakenly passing an internal error string to C
-      over the FFI boundary. Many tests were added, and some previous
-      differences between the C and Rust implementations have been
-      remedied. Fixes bug 24031; bugfix on 0.3.3.1-alpha.
-
   o Minor features (accounting):
     - When Tor becomes dormant, it now uses a scheduled event to wake up
       at the right time. Previously, we would use the per-second timer
