+Changes in version 0.3.1.8 - 2017-10-25
+  Tor 0.3.1.7 is the second stable release in the 0.3.1 series.
+  It includes several bugfixes, including a bugfix for a crash issue
+  that had affected relays under memory pressure. It also adds
+  a new directory authority, Bastet.
+
+  o Directory authority changes:
+    - Add "Bastet" as a ninth directory authority to the default list.
+      Closes ticket 23910.
+    - The directory authority "Longclaw" has changed its IP address.
+      Closes ticket 23592.
+
+  o Major bugfixes (relay, crash, assertion failure, backport from 0.3.2.2-alpha):
+    - Fix a timing-based assertion failure that could occur when the
+      circuit out-of-memory handler freed a connection's output buffer.
+      Fixes bug 23690; bugfix on 0.2.6.1-alpha.
+
+  o Minor features (directory authorities, backport from 0.3.2.2-alpha):
+    - Remove longclaw's IPv6 address, as it will soon change. Authority
+      IPv6 addresses were originally added in 0.2.8.1-alpha. This leaves
+      3/8 directory authorities with IPv6 addresses, but there are also
+      52 fallback directory mirrors with IPv6 addresses. Resolves 19760.
+
+  o Minor features (geoip):
+    - Update geoip and geoip6 to the October 4 2017 Maxmind GeoLite2
+      Country database.
+
+  o Minor bugfixes (compilation, backport from 0.3.2.2-alpha):
+    - Fix a compilation warning when building with zstd support on
+      32-bit platforms. Fixes bug 23568; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha. Found
+      and fixed by Andreas Stieger.
+
+  o Minor bugfixes (compression, backport from 0.3.2.2-alpha):
+    - Handle a pathological case when decompressing Zstandard data when
+      the output buffer size is zero. Fixes bug 23551; bugfix
+      on 0.3.1.1-alpha.
+
+  o Minor bugfixes (directory authority, backport from 0.3.2.1-alpha):
+    - Remove the length limit on HTTP status lines that authorities can
+      send in their replies. Fixes bug 23499; bugfix on 0.3.1.6-rc.
+
+  o Minor bugfixes (hidden service, relay, backport from 0.3.2.2-alpha):
+    - Avoid a possible double close of a circuit by the intro point on
+      error of sending the INTRO_ESTABLISHED cell. Fixes bug 23610;
+      bugfix on 0.3.0.1-alpha.
+
+  o Minor bugfixes (memory safety, backport from 0.3.2.3-alpha):
+    - Clear the address when node_get_prim_orport() returns early.
+      Fixes bug 23874; bugfix on 0.2.8.2-alpha.
+
+  o Minor bugfixes (unit tests, backport from 0.3.2.2-alpha):
+    - Fix additional channelpadding unit test failures by using mocked
+      time instead of actual time for all tests. Fixes bug 23608; bugfix
+      on 0.3.1.1-alpha.
