       potentially wait a very long time. Fixes part of bug 19969; bugfix
       on 0.2.8.1-alpha.
 
+  o Major bugfixes (download scheduling):
+    - When using an exponential backoff schedule, do not give up on
+      downloading just because we have failed a bunch of times. Since
+      each delay is longer than the last, retrying indefinitely won't
+      hurt. Fixes bug 20536; bugfix on 0.2.9.1-alpha.
+    - If a consensus expires while we are waiting for certificates to
+      download, stop waiting for certificates.
+    - If we stop waiting for certificates less than a minute after we
+      started downloading them, do not consider the certificate download
+      failure a separate failure. Fixes bug 20533; bugfix
+      on 0.2.0.9-alpha.
+    - Remove the maximum delay on exponential-backoff scheduling. Since
+      we now allow an infinite number of failures (see ticket 20536), we
+      must now allow the time to grow longer on each failure. Fixes part
+      of bug 20534; bugfix on 0.2.9.1-alpha.
+    - Make our initial download delays closer to those from 0.2.8. Fixes
+      another part of bug 20534; bugfix on 0.2.9.1-alpha.
+    - When determining when to download a directory object, handle times
+      after 2038 if the operating system supports them. (Someday this
+      will be important!) Fixes bug 20587; bugfix on 0.2.8.1-alpha.
+
+  o Minor features (geoip):
+    - Update geoip and geoip6 to the November 3 2016 Maxmind GeoLite2
+      Country database.
+
+  o Minor bugfixes (client directory scheduling):
+    - Treat "relay too busy to answer request" as a failed request and a
+      reason to back off on our retry frequency. This is safe now that
+      exponential backups retry indefinitely, and avoids a bug where we
+      would reset our download schedule erroneously. Fixes bug 20593;
+      bugfix on 0.2.9.1-alpha.

   o Minor bugfixes (client, logging):
     - Remove a BUG warning in circuit_pick_extend_handshake(). Instead,
       assume all nodes support EXTEND2. Use ntor whenever a key is

     - On DNSPort, stop logging a BUG warning on a failed hostname
       lookup. Fixes bug 19869; bugfix on 0.2.9.1-alpha.
 
-  o Minor bugfixes (compilation):
+  o Minor bugfixes (hidden services):
+    - When configuring hidden services, check every hidden service
+      directory's permissions. Previously, we only checked the last
+      hidden service. Fixes bug 20529; bugfix on 13942 commit 85bfad1
+      in 0.2.6.2-alpha.
+
+  o Minor bugfixes (portability):
+    - Fix compilation with OpenSSL 1.1 and less commonly-used CPU
+      architectures. Closes ticket 20588.
+    - Use ECDHE ciphers instead of ECDH in tortls tests. LibreSSL has
+      removed the ECDH ciphers which caused the tests to fail on
+      platforms which use it. Fixes bug 20460; bugfix on 0.2.8.1-alpha.
     - Fix implicit conversion warnings under OpenSSL 1.1. Fixes bug
       20551; bugfix on 0.2.1.1-alpha.
 
+  o Minor bugfixes (relay bootstrap):
+    - Ensure relays don't make multiple connections during bootstrap.

   o Minor bugfixes (relay):
     - Work around a memory leak in OpenSSL 1.1 when encoding public
       keys. Fixes bug 20553; bugfix on 0.0.2pre8.
