+Changes in version 0.2.1.6-alpha - 2008-09-29
   o Major features:
     - Implement proposal 121: make it possible to build hidden services
-      that only certain clients are allowed to connect to.  This is
-      enforced at several points, so that unauthorized clients are
-      unable to send INTRODUCE cells to the service, or even (depending
-      on the type of authentication) to learn introduction points.  This
-      feature raises the bar for certain kinds of active attacks against
-      hidden services.  Code by Karsten Loesing.
-    - Relays now store and serve v2 hidden service descriptors by default
-      (i.e. new default value for HidServDirectoryV2 is 1). This is the
-      last step in proposal 114, which aims to make hidden service
-      connections more reliable.
-    - Allow node restrictions to work include country codes.  The syntax
-      to exclude nodes an a country with country code XX is "ExcludeNodes
-      {XX}".  Patch from Robert Hogan.
-    - Allow ExitNodes list to include IP ranges and country codes, just like
-      the Exclude*Nodes lists.  Patch from Robert Hogan.

     - When extending a circuit to a hidden service directory to upload a
       rendezvous descriptor using a BEGIN_DIR cell, almost 1/6 of all
-      requests failed, because the router descriptor has not been
-      downloaded yet. In these cases, do not attempt to upload the
-      rendezvous descriptor, but wait until the router descriptor is
