+ o Major features (dirauths, security, hidden services):
+ - Directory authorities can now perform the shared randomness protocol
+ specified by proposal 250. Using this protocol, directory authorities can
+ generate a global fresh random number every day. In the future, this
+ global randomness will be used by hidden services to select their
+ responsible HSDirs. This release only implements the directory authority
+ feature; the hidden service side will be implemented in the future as
+ part of proposal 224 . Resolves ticket #16943 and proposal 250.
