If you want to see more detailed descriptions of the changes in each development snapshot, see the ChangeLog file. Changes in version 0.4.5.6 - 2021-02-15 - BLURB + The Tor 0.4.5.x release series is dedicated to the memory of Karsten + Loesing (1979-2020), Tor developer, cypherpunk, husband, and + father. Karsten is best known for creating the Tor metrics portal and + leading the metrics team, but he was involved in Tor from the early + days. For example, while he was still a student he invented and implemented + the v2 onion service directory design, and he also served as an ambassador + to the many German researchers working in the anonymity field. We loved him + and respected him for his patience, his consistency, and his welcoming + approach to growing our community. + + This release series introduces significant improvements in relay IPv6 + address discovery, a new "MetricsPort" mechanism for relay operators to + measure performance, LTTng support, build system improvements to help when + using Tor as a static library, and significant bugfixes related to + Windows relay performance. It also includes numerous smaller features and + bugfixes. Below are the changes since 0.4.4.7. For a list only of the changes since 0.4.5.5-rc, see the ChangeLog file. |
