Date: Sun, 22 Nov 2015 20:51:30 -0500 Hi, all! Tor 0.2.7.5 is the first stable release in the Tor 0.2.7 series. It makes no changes beyond those in 0.2.7.4-rc; the summary below lists all changes in the 0.2.7 series. You can download the source from the usual place on the website. Packages should be up in a few days. (Below is the 0.2.7.5 changelog. See the ReleaseNotes for a complete list of everything that changed in 0.2.7) Changes in version 0.2.7.5 - 2015-11-20 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. The 0.2.7 series adds a more secure identity key type for relays, 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.
