+ o Minor bugfix (channel connection):
+ - The accurate address of a connection is real_addr, not the addr member.
+ TLS Channel remote address is now real_addr content instead of addr
+ member. Fixes bug 24952; bugfix on 707c1e2e26 in 0.2.4.11-alpha.
+ Patch by "ffmancera".

+ o Major features (denial of service mitigation):
+ - Give relays some defenses against the recent network overload. We start
+ with three defenses (default parameters in parentheses). First: if a
+ single client address makes too many concurrent connections (>100), hang
+ up on further connections. Second: if a single client address makes
+ circuits too quickly (more than 3 per second, with an allowed burst of
+ 90) while also having too many connections open (3), refuse new create
+ cells for the next while (1-2 hours). Third: if a client asks to
+ establish a rendezvous point to you directly, ignore the request. These
+ defenses can be manually controlled by new torrc options, but relays
+ will also take guidance from consensus parameters, so there's no need to
+ configure anything manually. Implements ticket 24902.
