+Changes in version 0.2.6.9 - 2015-06-11
+ Tor 0.2.6.9 fixes a regression in the circuit isolation code, increases the
+ requirements for receiving an HSDir flag, and addresses some other small
+ bugs in the systemd and sandbox code. Clients using circuit isolation
+ should upgrade; all directory authorities should upgrade.
+
+ o Major bugfixes (client-side privacy):
+ - Properly separate out each SOCKSPort when applying stream
+ isolation. The error occured because each port's session group was
+ being overwritten by a default value when the listener connection
+ was initialized. Fixes bug 16247; bugfix on 0.2.6.3-alpha. Patch
+ by "jojelino".
+
+ o Minor feature (directory authorities, security):
+ - The HSDir flag given by authorities now requires the Stable flag.
+ For the current network, this results in going from 2887 to 2806
+ HSDirs. Also, it makes it harder for an attacker to launch a sybil
+ attack by raising the effort for a relay to become Stable which
+ takes at the very least 7 days to do so and by keeping the 96
+ hours uptime requirement for HSDir. Implements ticket 8243.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (compilation):
+ - Build with --enable-systemd correctly when libsystemd is
+ installed, but systemd is not. Fixes bug 16164; bugfix on
+ 0.2.6.3-alpha. Patch from Peter Palfrader.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (Linux seccomp2 sandbox):
+ - Fix sandboxing to work when running as a relaymby renaming of
+ secret_id_key, and allowing the eventfd2 and futex syscalls. Fixes
+ bug 16244; bugfix on 0.2.6.1-alpha. Patch by Peter Palfrader.
+ - Allow systemd connections to work with the Linux seccomp2 sandbox
+ code. Fixes bug 16212; bugfix on 0.2.6.2-alpha. Patch by
+ Peter Palfrader.
+
+ o Minor bugfixes (tests):
+ - Fix a crash in the unit tests when built with MSVC2013. Fixes bug
+ 16030; bugfix on 0.2.6.2-alpha. Patch from "NewEraCracker".

Changes in version 0.2.6.8 - 2015-05-21
Tor 0.2.6.8 fixes a bit of dodgy code in parsing INTRODUCE2 cells, and
fixes an authority-side bug in assigning the HSDir flag. All directory
