+INSERT SUMMARY BLURP
+
+Changes in version 0.4.6.9 - 2021-12-15
+  o Major bugfixes (relay, overload):
+    - Don't make Tor DNS timeout trigger an overload general state.
+      These timeouts are different from DNS server timeout. They have to
+      be seen as timeout related to UX and not because of a network
+      problem. Fixes bug 40527; bugfix on 0.4.6.1-alpha.
+
+  o Minor feature (reproducible build):
+    - The repository can now build reproducible tarballs which adds the
+      build command "make dist-reprod" for that purpose. Closes
+      ticket 26299.
+
+  o Minor features (compilation):
+    - Give an error message if trying to build with a version of
+      LibreSSL known not to work with Tor. (There's an incompatibility
+      with LibreSSL versions 3.2.1 through 3.4.0 inclusive because of
+      their incompatibility with OpenSSL 1.1.1's TLSv1.3 APIs.) Closes
+      ticket 40511.
+
+  o Minor features (fallbackdir):
+    - Regenerate fallback directories generated on December 15, 2021.
+
+  o Minor features (geoip data):
+    - Update the geoip files to match the IPFire Location Database, as
+      retrieved on 2021/12/15.
+
+  o Minor bugfixes (compilation):
+    - Fix our configuration logic to detect whether we had OpenSSL 3:
+      previously, our logic was reversed. This has no other effect than
+      to change whether we suppress deprecated API warnings. Fixes bug
+      40429; bugfix on 0.3.5.13.
+
+  o Minor bugfixes (relay):
+    - Reject IPv6-only DirPorts. Our reachability self-test forces
+      DirPorts to be IPv4, but our configuration parser allowed them to
+      be IPv6-only, which led to an assertion failure. Fixes bug 40494;
+      bugfix on 0.4.5.1-alpha.
+
+  o Documentation (man, relay):
+    - Missing "OverloadStatistics" in tor.1 manpage. Fixes bug 40504;
+      bugfix on 0.4.6.1-alpha.

 Changes in version 0.4.6.8 - 2021-10-26
