r272@lysithea: edmanm | 2008-03-24 18:18:30 -0400
Today seems like a fine time for an 0.1.2.

  • Property svn:eol-style set to native
  • Property svn:keywords set to Id
Line 
1 0.1.2   24-Mar-2008
2   o Correctly load the CA certificate used to verify SSL connections to the
3     GeoIP server. This caused Vidalia >= 0.1.0 clients built against Qt >=
4     4.3.2 to be unable to retrieve updated GeoIP information. (Ticket #349)
5   o Fix compilation when UINT_MAX is not defined. (Ticket #350)
6   o Bridges are no longer required to have a DirPort set as of Tor
7     0.2.0.13-alpha, so stop forcing it on for bridges. At some point, we'll
8     likely start forcing DirPort to be disabled for bridges, and on by default
9     but optional for normal relays. (Ticket #337)
10   o Fix a typo in VidaliaMacros.cmake that would allow configuration to
11     continue even if windres.exe couldn't be found.
12   o Update the version of Torbutton included in the OS X bundle to
13     1.1.17-alpha, and actually include the bundle's uninstaller script.
14   o Updated Finnish and Swedish translations.
15
16
17 0.1.1   17-Mar-2008
18   o Use CMake to configure the version number that ends up getting displayed
19     in the About box.
20   o Update the RPM .spec file with the new CMake requirements. Patch from Oliver
21     Niesner.
22   o TunnelDirConns and PreferTunneledDirConns are now enabled by default as of
23     Tor 0.2.0.22-rc.
24   o Don't check the 'My ISP blocks connections to the Tor network' box simply
25     because TunnelDirConns is enabled. Checking the box still enables
26     encrypted directory connections on older Tors.
27   o Add a Japanese GUI translation from Nardog
28   o Updated Finnish and Swedish translations
29
30
31 0.1.0   01-Mar-2008
32   o Migrate to CMake as our build system, instead of the previous mix of
33     autoconf and qmake. See the updated INSTALL file for more information.
34   o Add an OpenSSL license exception so Vidalia can be linked against OpenSSL
35     and redistributed. Also include the text of the GPLv3, since our license
36     says "GPLv2 or later."
37   o Don't try to 'SETCONF HashedControlPassword' if we couldn't hash the
38     control password, otherwise we could end up disabling authentication.
39     (Ticket #305)
40   o If Vidalia is built against Qt >= 4.3 with SSL support, then do our GeoIP
41     lookups over an SSL connection.
42   o Work around a crash bug with a sorted QTreeWidget that occurs with Qt
43     4.3.3, and possibly later versions as well.
44   o Parse ReachableAddresses values properly when there are multiple ports
45     specified on a single line.
46   o RESETCONF the value of PublishServerDescriptor when the user switches from
47     being a relay to acting as only a client.
48   o Add support for Tor's STATUS_GENERAL, STATUS_CLIENT, and STATUS_SERVER
49     status events.
50   o Listen for the DANGEROUS_VERSION general status event and warn the user
51     if their version of Tor is no longer recommended.
52   o Listen for the CIRCUIT_ESTABLISHED client status event and only turn the
53     yellow onion status icon green after Tor has successfully established a
54     circuit.
55   o If the user's vidalia.conf contains an empty value for their Tor
56     executable, use the default for the user's platform.
57   o If the user is running a bridge relay with Tor 0.2.0.13-alpha or newer,
58     then set 'BridgeRelay 1' when configuring their bridge.
59   o Don't save a randomly generated control password to Vidalia's
60     configuration file. If Vidalia gets disconnected from Tor or crashes, we
61     will no longer be able to reconnect.
62   o Don't let users save an empty string for a Tor executable in the Settings
63     dialog.
64   o Apply the changes for settings pages in the same order in which the pages
65     appear in the Settings dialog. The only two pages for which this matters
66     are the 'Network' and 'Sharing' pages. (Ticket #336)
67   o Old Jabber clients apparently use port 5223 for encrypted connections. So,
68     include that port as part of the "Instant Messaging" exit policy checkbox.
69     (Ticket #333)
70   o Stop displaying flags next to the language names in the Appearance
71     settings page.
72   o Add a "How do I find a bridge?" link and corresponding help text to the
73     'Network' settings page.
74   o Add a 'BrowserExecutable' configuration option to launch a Web browser
75     when Tor has built a circuit, and exit Vidalia when the browser is closed.
76     Patch from Steven J. Murdoch <http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/users/sjm217/>.
77   o Add 'ProxyExecutable' and 'ProxyExecutableArguments' configuration options
78     to launch a proxy application with given parameters when Vidalia starts,
79     and close it when Vidalia exits.
80     Patches from Steven J. Murdoch <http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/users/sjm217/>.
81   o Respond to the Delete key in the network map by closing whatever circuits
82     or streams are currently selected. Suggested by Andrew Lewman.
83   o Rename the 'Relay' settings page to the 'Sharing' settings page.
84   o Add a vidalia.desktop desktop entry file that can be installed with
85     'make install'.
86   o Add an Albanian GUI translation from Frederik Nosi.
87   o Add a Hebrew GUI and Win32 installer translation.
88   o Updated Finnish, Norwegian, Polish, Russian, and Swedish translations.
89
90
91 0.0.16  22-Nov-2007
92   o Fix compilation on Mac OS X 10.3 (Panther).
93   o GETCONF RelayBandwidthRate and RelayBandwidthBurst properly on Tor >=
94     0.2.0.1-alpha. In 0.0.15, we were SETCONFing RelayBandwidthFoo when
95     appropriate, but always GETCONFing BandwidthFoo. Fixes Ticket #298.
96   o Display the correct default list of allowed ports in the Network settings
97     page, and don't try to save an empty list. Noticed by Roger Dingledine.
98   o Only remember the torrc and datadir values if Vidalia started Tor, or
99     if the user changed the displayed values.
100   o Fix some dumb logic in determing whether the Windows we're running on
101     supports window transparency.
102   o Use the correct icon for the "Close Stream" context menu action in the
103     circuit and stream list widget.
104   o Create the message log, network map, bandwidth graph, and settings dialogs
105     without parents, so they can be independently brought to the foreground on
106     Windows Vista.
107   o Update the default bandwidth rate and burst rate to 5MB and 10MB,
108     respectively, to match Tor's defaults.
109   o Make the "Use this proxy for HTTPS also" checkbox checked by default.
110   o Disable the labels that display the user's bridge relay information if the
111     user is not running a bridge, instead of just disabling the copy button.
112   o Modified the Mac OS X bundle installer to set Vidalia to start
113     automatically on login for the user that installed the bundle.
114   o Added an Arabic translation from Ahmad Gharbeia.
115   o Updated Finnish, German, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese
116     translations.
117
118
119 0.0.15  24-Oct-2007
120   o Add a new 'Network' settings page to the config dialog that lets users
121     configure an HTTP/HTTPS proxy, specify allowed ports if they are behind a
122     restrictive firewall or proxy, and set up bridges and tunneled dir conns.
123   o Add a 'Help Censored Users Connect to the Tor Network' option to the
124     'Server' settings page to help users set up their Tor as a brigde relay.
125     This option is only available for those running Tor 0.2.0.8-alpha or
126     newer.
127   o Stop hardcoding a font size of 10 in many places. This made the fonts on
128     Mac OS X look non-standard and inconsistent.
129   o Restructure the code that manages GETCONFing values from Tor and then
130     later SETCONFing any changed values to make it easier to add more pages
131     like the 'Network' and 'Server' settings pages in the future.
132   o If we prompt the user to enter a control password and they enter one,
133     don't keep trying to use our randomly generated password.
134   o Fix a bug in the network map that would cause the user to sometimes be
135     unable to select a circuit or server after clicking and dragging the mouse
136     in one of the lists. (Ticket #269)
137   o Stop leaking memory for pretty much every circuit we plotted on the network
138     map. Found by Roger Dingledine and his Valgrind.
139   o Stop leaking memory if TorMapWidget::addRouter() is called for a router
140     that is already on the map. Also found by Roger Dingledine and his
141     Valgrind.
142   o Stop leaking memory used by QTranslator and the configuration dialog on
143     exit.
144   o Default to using an ORPort of 443 when setting up a server on Windows.
145     9001 is still the default everywhere else.
146   o Fix a crash bug that could occur when Vidalia gets disconnected from Tor
147     while waiting for a response to a previous command. Bug reported by Roger
148     Dingledine. (Ticket #295)
149   o Create a single TorProcess object used to start and stop Tor, instead of
150     creating a new one each time and cleaning up after Tor exits. (Ticket
151     #294)
152   o Do the control connection asynchronously so we aren't trying to call
153     waitForConnected() in the control socket thread before it has an event loop
154     running.
155   o Don't start Tor or test for a running Tor with an open control port until
156     the main event loop is running.
157   o Older Tors write their state file even if all we're doing is
158     --hash-password. So if the user has configured a non-default data
159     directory, include that in the list of command line arguments when we run
160     Tor to hash the user's control password.
161   o Support changing Tor's control port and authentication settings without
162     having to restart Tor for the settings to take effect.
163   o Recognize the REMAP stream status in STREAM events.
164   o Allow the control panel window to expand horizontally and vertically to
165     fit longer translated text labels.
166   o Make VClickLabel right-to-left aware so the control panel buttons look
167     correct when using the Farsi translation.
168   o Fix our configure.in to produce a Makefile instead of an Xcode project on
169     OS X. This only affected users who got Qt 4.3 from Trolltech's .dmg
170     installers.
171   o Fix our configure.in to tell QMake the fully-expanded path to which our
172     man page should be installed.
173   o Fix our configure.in so we can use it to build under Cygwin or MinGW with
174     Qt >= 4.3.0.
175   o Move to a consistent use of the word "Relay" instead of "Server" or
176     "Router" in the interface.
177   o Convert the path separators in a configured data directory to whatever the
178     platform standard is.
179   o Remove the custom palette used in all Vidalia's windows that had been
180     around since 0.0.1.
181   o Attempt to standardize the GUI fonts to whatever the user's platform
182     thinks is best.
183   o Default to using Qt's Windows Vista style on Windows Vista. On other
184     Windowses or any non-Mac platform, default to the Cleanlooks style if
185     we're building with Qt >= 4.3.
186   o Add some information to the help browser about the new network settings
187     and bridge relay configuration, as well as the new authentication
188     settings in 0.0.14.
189   o When the user clicks the Help button in the Settings dialog, take them
190     directly to the help topic for whichever settings page they are currently
191     viewing.
192   o Added Torbutton 1.1.9.1-alpha to the Mac OS X bundles, thanks to
193     Andrew Lewman.
194   o Disable enable-edit-actions, enable-remote-toggle, and
195     enable-remote-http-toggle in the bundled Privoxy configuration. Suggested
196     by Greg Fleischer.
197   o Updated Finnish, French, German, Norwegian, Polish, and Russian
198     translations.
199
200 0.0.14  26-Aug-2007
201   o Add support for Tor's HashedControlPassword and CookieAuthentication
202     options. Password authentication is enabled by default.
203   o Add support for Tor's new PROTOCOLINFO control command.
204   o Support running on Windows NT 4.0 again.
205   o Check to see if "%PROGRAMFILES%\Vidalia Bundle\Tor\tor.exe" exists when
206     setting the default Tor executable on Win32. If it doesn't, fall back to
207     "%PROGRAMFILES%\Tor\tor.exe". (Ticket #262)
208   o Allow the people who think clicking 'New Identity' is the solution to
209     everything to be disappointed six times per minute, instead of once.
210   o Add the ability to configure Tor's data directory.
211   o Give users the option of not removing %APPDATA%\Tor and %APPDATA%\Vidalia
212     in the Win32 Vidalia and bundle installers.
213   o Add a Czech GUI and installer translation from el Mar.
214   o Updated Finnish and German translations.
215
216
217 0.0.13  02-Aug-2007
218   o Remove the control protocol version checking logic, since Tor will now
219     just hang up if the first command received isn't a valid AUTHENTICATE
220     command.
221   o Fix a bug where Vidalia would display an incorrect error message if the
222     user started Vidalia, stopped Tor, ran Tor manually, then clicked 'Start
223     Tor'. (Reported by arma)
224   o Maintain a list of address mappings, so we can try to replace IP addresses
225     in stream targets with host names when displaying them on the network map.
226     (Suggested by phobos)
227   o Stop including help documentation for each language, even if it is
228     untranslated. If there is no translated help documentation for a language,
229     simply load the documentation from the English version.
230   o Use RelayBandwidthBurst and RelayBandwidthRate on Tor >= 0.2.0.1-alpha.
231   o Remove from the server config page the 'Address' text box, the 'Get
232     Address' button, and 'Automatically Update' checkbox.
233   o Don't do balloon messages on Windows 2000; I'm told it doesn't work even
234     though QSystemTrayIcon::supportsMessages() says it should.
235   o Removed a duplicate check when determining what control event Vidalia
236     received from Tor.
237   o Check /usr/sbin/ for a Tor binary if one isn't found in $PATH.
238   o Fixed compilation on Mac OS X Panther.
239   o Support building with Qt 4.3 in our configure.in (no code changes
240     required).
241   o Change the "Start Tor" control panel button text to "Starting Tor" while
242     Tor is starting.
243   o Added a "Control Panel" item to the OS X dock icon's context menu.
244   o Added tooltips to the circuits and streams listed on the network map.
245   o Stop putting a torrc in %APPDATA%\Tor if the user is also installing Vidalia,
246     since they'll just get confused from having two torrc files.
247   o Added a Swedish GUI and installer translation from Amin Amini.
248   o Added an Italian installer translation from Alex Mazzariol.
249   o Update Finnish, French, German, Italian, Russian and Spanish translations.
250  
251  
252 0.0.12  01-Jun-2007
253   o Added a new "Control Panel" main window that appears when Vidalia first
254     starts. This dialog is for people who either aren't trained to look in
255     their system tray area for a Vidalia icon, or those who simply do not have
256     a system tray area.
257   o Added -logfile and -loglevel command-line options that can log useful
258     Vidalia debugging messages to a file or to stdout. Hopefully this will
259     help make tracking down future Vidalia bugs easier.
260   o Add a box to the Advanced settings page to change the IP address on which
261     we will try to connect to Tor's control port, instead of always assuming
262     127.0.0.1. (Ticket #81)
263   o Don't yell at the user if our SAVECONF fails after changing some
264     configuration settings; just remember the intended settings and reapply them
265     next time Tor runs.
266   o Restore a window to its previous state each time it is opened, not just
267     the first time after Vidalia is started.
268   o Only allow the 'New Identity' button to be clicked once every 60 seconds.
269   o Show the number of online servers in the status tip for the server list,
270     as well as the total number of servers.
271   o Expand filenames that use "~/", "%APPDATA%", or "%PROGRAMFILES%" in either
272     the path to Tor's executable or torrc.
273   o Fix the message log timestamp format to be "MMM dd hh:mm:ss.zzz", instead
274     of "MMM dd hh:mm:ss:zzz".
275   o Don't create the help browser window until we actually need it, so we
276     don't waste memory on a window the user might never use.
277   o Fix a minor bug that's been around since 0.0.1: actually remove objects
278     from the list of targets for an event, instead of from a copy of the list.
279   o Display command-line options information as a message box so even Win32
280     folks can see it, if they give Vidalia a bogus argument.
281   o Revert back to the single uninstaller strategy on Win32, so don't leave
282     program groups behind after uninstalling the bundle. (Ticket #237)
283   o Start Privoxy minimized if the user selects "Run installed components now"
284     after completing the Win32 installer.
285   o Don't skip past the Win32 installer results immediately, since there could
286     have been errors the user should see.
287   o Include a default.action file for Privoxy in the Win32 and OS X bundles
288     with the +limit-connect{1-} fix.
289   o Include some more helpful text in the Win32 installer welcome screen and
290     category descriptions.
291   o Fix the paths to *-spec.txt in the script that builds the OS X bundles.
292   o Include Tor_Uninstaller.applescript and uninstall_tor_bundle.sh in the OS
293     X bundle. (Ticket #230)
294   o Updated Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Norwegian, Polish and Spanish
295     translations.
296  
297
298 0.0.11  07-Feb-2007
299   o Fix a race condition that could (and did) cause Vidalia to freeze.
300   o RESETCONF all server-related settings when the be-a-server checkbox gets
301     unchecked, not just ORPort and Nickname.
302   o Add support for zlib or gzip compressed GeoIP responses.
303   o Handle chunked transfer encodings properly in GeoIP responses.
304   o Be a little less eager to send GeoIP requests right away. Now we wait 10
305     seconds after adding an address to the queue, or a maximum of 30 seconds,
306     before sending the request.
307   o Tolerate entries in geoip-cache that have no timestamp. If an entry does
308     not have a timestamp, use the current date and time.
309   o Respond to double-clicks on the map. Double left-click zooms in towards
310     the mouse pointer and double right-click zooms out.
311   o If Vidalia is built with Qt >= 4.2, use the open and closed hand cursors
312     in ZImageView when panning the world map.
313   o Qt >= 4.2 handles the sorting in addTopLevelItem() in the server list. We
314     still do the sorted inserts ourselves in older Qts.
315   o Display circuits as a list of server nicknames (like we currently do), but
316     save the original circuit paths (possibly with key IDs for non-Named
317     servers) so we don't display the wrong server information when the user
318     selects that circuit.
319   o Fix a bug introduced in 0.0.10 that caused a server's little pinpoint on
320     the map to not be highlighted green when the server is selected in the
321     server list.
322   o Update the stream target address on every stream status event, not just
323     NEW stream events.
324   o Add an EU flag for the server list.
325   o Add a "Cancel" button to the message box that asks server operators if
326     they want to delay server shutdown or kill Tor right away. (Ticket #222)
327   o Add version information to our compiled Win32 vidalia.exe.
328   o Be more tolerant of Win32 people removing the Tor service out from under
329     Vidalia.
330   o Explicitly specify the tab order in the bandwidth graph.
331   o Fix a bug in parsing Tor's version string when it contains modifiers such
332     as '-alpha'.
333   o Make Circuit::hops() correctly return an empty QStringList for empty paths,
334     instead of a QStringList with one empty QString.
335   o Do a better job of detecting Qt 4.2 debug libs on OS X. There were a few
336     necessary non-Qt libs missing from LIBS when we did our AC_TRY_LINK.
337   o Add vidalia.spec to our configure.in, so the RPM spec file stays current.
338   o Add a Traditional Chinese installer and GUI translation from Cloud.
339   o Updated Dutch, Farsi, Polish, Russian, and Simplified Chinese translations.
340
341
342 0.0.10  25-Dec-2006
343   o Load NT service functions on demand so we can run on Windows 95/98/ME
344     again. (Ticket #211)
345   o Add a column to the list of servers in the network map window, with a
346     little flag icon for each server.
347   o If the network map window is not visible, queue all GeoIP requests until
348     either the window becomes visible again or the queue contains requests for
349     at least one-quarter of all known servers.
350   o If we get a valid geoip response telling us the geoip database doesn't
351     have a location for the requested IP address, cache that response for one
352     week so we don't keep sending requests that are likely to fail anyway.
353   o Use QSystemTrayIcon when available (except on Mac). If we are using
354     QSystemTrayIcon on systems that support balloon messages, use a balloon to
355     indicate when NEWNYM is successful. We still show a message box when NEWNYM
356     fails. (Ticket #183)
357   o Add a graph style dropdown box to the bandwidth graph settings, so you can
358     choose between a fancy alpha blended area graph and a faster, simpler line
359     graph.
360   o Add a button to continue starting Vidalia anyway, even if Vidalia thinks
361     there might be another Vidalia process already running. It's possible that a
362     previous Vidalia did not exit cleanly and another process ended up with
363     the old Vidalia's PID.
364   o Add a "Zoom to Circuit" option to the circuit context menu in the network
365     map's list of circuits.
366   o Add a context menu to the dock icon on OS X. (Ticket #135)
367   o If we're building with Qt >= 4.2.0, then use its new saveGeometry() and
368     restoreGeometry() functions to save and restore window size and position.
369     If we're still using an old Qt, make sure the window fits on screen when
370     we try to restore it. (Ticket #207)
371   o Fix a bug in how the server points were keyed on the network map that
372     could cause some circuits to not get drawn. (Ticket #175)
373   o Really close the read channel when we want to stop reading from the Tor
374     process's stdout. This would sometimes cause duplicate messages in the
375     message log if Vidalia was running on a non-English-speaking Windows.
376   o Be more correct about what we consider as valid latitudes and longitudes.
377   o Give a better error message if we fail to determine what version of Tor's
378     control protocol is being spoken.
379   o Clarify some labels in the message log settings. (Ticket #203)
380   o Settle on a convention of not ending tool tips or status tips with a
381     period.
382   o Start shipping a geoip-cache file in our Win32 installers so people have
383     some initial geographic information, instead of starting out entirely
384     empty-handed.
385   o Add a Farsi translation.
386   o Add a Spanish translation contributed by desolator.
387   o Add a Portuguese (Brazilian) translation contributed by Mabat Haram.
388   o Add a Simplified Chinese installer translation contributed by omg.
389   o Updates to Finnish, French, German, Italian, Norwegian, Polish,
390     Russian, and Simplified Chinese translations.
391
392
393 0.0.9   05-Nov-2006
394   o Added a new, more intuitive interface for setting a server's bandwidth
395     rate and exit policies.
396   o Improved our ./configure script so it will detect old or non-debug
397     versions of Qt and link accordingly.
398   o Added support for more easily building Qt as a Universal binary on OS X.
399   o Added a right-click option to circuits listed in the network map dialog to
400     close the circuit (Ticket #176).
401   o Added a right-click option to servers listed in the network map dialog to
402     zoom in on the server on the map (Ticket #176).
403   o Stop using a custom font and just use the platform default on all dialogs.
404   o Add "Close Window" shortcuts for Linux (Ctrl+W).
405   o Fixed a crash bug that would occur when saving messages in the message
406     log (Ticket #185).
407   o Fixed a bug that would cause messages with identical timestamps to not
408     get copied to the clipboard (Ticket #190).
409   o Ask if the user wants to delay shutting down their server when Vidalia
410     exits, to give clients time to find new circuits. We previously only did
411     this when the user stopped Tor, but wasn't exiting Vidalia.
412   o If Windows is restarting, then don't ask about delaying a server shut
413     down; just stop Tor and exit immediately so Windows doesn't yell at us.
414   o Detect if Tor was installed as an NT service prior to Vidalia, so we don't
415     accidentally remove it.
416   o Create a new torrc and specify a control port for the Tor NT service, so
417     it doesn't die when the user tries to start the service and we don't have
418     to tell the user to go add a line to their torrc.
419   o Fixed a bug that caused Vidalia to crash if it tried to read in a bogus
420     geoip-cache file from its data directory (Ticket #184).
421   o Refuse to cache information we did not ask for that we received in response
422     to a GeoIP request.
423   o Wait no more than ten seconds after queueing a GeoIP request before
424     sending it, so requests don't starve if we keep constantly getting new
425     descriptors.
426   o Ask Tor what its SocksPort and SocksAddress is before building our GeoIP
427     request, instead of always assuming Tor is listening on 127.0.0.1:9050.
428   o Explicitly specify the sort order for the message log and server list, so
429     things aren't backwards when linking with Qt 4.2.x.
430   o Add support for translating the Vidalia and Vidalia bundle installers.
431   o Start bundling Torbutton with the Vidalia bundle installer.
432   o Add a Norwegian (Bokmal) translation contributed by xiando.
433   o Updates to the Finnish, French, German, and Polish translations.
434
435
436 0.0.8   03-Oct-2006
437   o Vidalia will now attempt to connect to an existing Tor's ControlPort
438     before starting its own Tor process. If it finds a Tor with an open
439     ControlPort, Vidalia will "attach" to that Tor instead of starting a new
440     process.
441   o Vidalia now supports running Tor as an NT service on Windows.
442   o When Vidalia starts its own Tor process, it will now default to starting it
443     with a "-f ~/.vidalia/torrc", to avoid permissions conflicts when running
444     Tor as a user that does not have write access to the default torrc. The
445     torrc used when starting Tor is still configurable.
446   o Fix a bug that was causing unexpected behavior with many unrelated Windows
447     applications.
448   o Do a better job of determining if another Vidalia process is running on
449     Windows, to eliminate all the false positives reported.
450   o Major performance improvements related to loading the network map.
451   o Support receiving server identities in circ events, as well as names, so
452     Vidalia will work with Tor 0.1.2.2-alpha and later.
453   o Moved the "New Identity" button to the main popup menu for easier
454     access.
455   o Vidalia dialogs remember their last size and location when Vidalia exits
456     and restore their size and location the next time Vidalia runs.
457   o Vidalia windows now close in response to a Command-W on Mac OS X.
458   o Added a "Zoom To Fit" button to the network map, to zoom in on the active
459     circuits.
460   o Numerous minor aesthetic and usability improvements to many of Vidalia's
461     dialogs.
462   o Fix a bug that was causing signal conflict warnings on Debian.
463   o Fix a crash that would occur when exiting Vidalia after an attempt to
464     start Tor with a non-existent executable.
465   o Add a Bulgarian translation contributed by kutia0001.
466   o Add a Dutch translation contributed by Saedian.
467   o Add a Hungarian translation contributed by Tibor Fekete.
468   o Add a Polish translation contributed by ZeeWolf.
469   o Updates to the Finnish, French, and Russian translations.
470
471
472 0.0.7   07-Jul-2006
473   o Fix a bug that was causing Vidalia to freeze frequently for some people,
474     particularly when running at a verbose log level.
475   o Fix a bug that would cause Windows Vidalias to not want to start after
476     Vidalia had been killed via the Task Manager.
477   o Add a French translation contributed by Michel Burkhardt.
478   o In the network map, update the displayed uptime by looking at the difference
479     between now and the publication time, and add that difference to the published
480     uptime.
481
482
483 0.0.6   23-Jun-2006
484   o Fix the network map to properly remove circuits after they are closed.
485   o Fix our configure script to properly handle the --prefix option (patch by
486     Alexander Wirt).
487   o Check if Vidalia is already running when we start. If Vidalia is already
488     running, then warn and exit in the second instance.
489   o Strip all invalid characters from the server's nickname and make sure the
490     user can't enter any.
491   o Default to the Tor binary located in the user's $PATH, instead of trying
492     to guess directory locations.
493   o Add support for adjusting a server's BandwidthRate and BandwidthBurst
494     values.
495   o Store Vidalia's settings in a file, (rather than in the registry on
496     Windows), so Vidalia can be more portable. Note that settings aren't
497     "imported" from the registry, so 0.0.5 users will have to configure
498     their Vidalia settings again.
499   o Make the bandwidth graph just a normal window instead of a tool window, so
500     it can hide behind other Vidalia windows, if necessary.
501   o On OS X, ensure that the About, Configure, and Exit actions get merged
502     into the "Vidalia" menu in the default menubar when Vidalia is running in
503     a non-English language.
504   o Add an Italian translation contributed by Alex Mazzariol.
505   o Add a Russian translation contributed by ygrek.
506   o Add a manpage for Vidalia contributed by Alexander Wirt.
507  
508  
509 0.0.5   02-Jun-2006
510   o Make the "Always On Top" property of the bandwidth graph optional.
511   o Add a new dialog showing a list of routers that the user's Tor currently
512     knows about, as well as the user's current circuits and streams and
513     detailed information about individual routers. The circuits and router
514     geographic locations are plotted on a world map. Thanks to Christoph
515     Sieghart, Michael Zuercher, and Adam Tomjack for help with this feature.
516   o Stop automatically scrolling to the newest item added to the message log,
517     if the user is looking through their message history.
518   o Create a horizontal scrollbar on the message log when an excessively long
519     message is logged.
520   o Add support for the NEWNYM signal in the form of a "New Identity"
521     button, to force Tor to use only clean circuits for new application
522     requests.
523   o Add a Mac OS X bundle.
524   o Add a Finnish translation contributed by DJHasis.
525   o Add a German translation contributed by Christoph Sieghart.
526   o Fix a bug that caused people running servers to update their public IP
527     address too often if they had the "Automatically Update" option checked.
528
529
530 0.0.4   09-May-2006
531   o Add a fixed set of Windows .ico files from Dan Christensen. Our
532     contributed set in 0.0.3 apparently had a blank image in it that some old
533     Windowses would use instead of the icon that actually had an image.
534   o Add an option for servers to check periodically to see if their public IP
535     address has changed.
536   o Give servers the option to shut down after 30 seconds, to give clients
537     time to find new circuits, instead of just always killing Tor immediately.
538   o Improve GUI responsiveness when waiting for the Tor process to finish
539     starting up.
540   o Be smarter about guessing the default location of Tor in non-English
541     Windowses.
542
543  
544 0.0.3   13-Apr-2006
545   o Fixed a server configuration bug that caused people to not really be a
546     middleman node, even though the checkbox told them they were.
547   o Fixed a bug in choosing a default language that caused help documents to
548     sometimes not appear.
549   o Fixed the Win32 bundle installer to not leave 2 files and a registry key
550     laying around after an uninstall. Also give users the option of launching
551     Vidalia when the solo installer is finished.
552   o Fixed a bug where Vidalia would ignore Windows when asked to shut down
553     because the system is restarting.
554   o Improved tray icon support on older Windowses. Also started using a new
555     set of icons created by Matt Hanson, based on our previous set by Corinna
556     Habets.
557   o Improved help document accessibility by adding "Help" buttons to many
558     dialogs and error message boxes.
559
560  
561 0.0.2   02-Apr-2006
562   o Added an integrated help browser and documentation.
563   o Added exit policy configuration support for servers.
564   o Added support for language translations and language selection.
565   o Added a Simplified Chinese (zh_CN) translation from Wu Xiaoguong.
566   o Added support for changing Vidalia's interface style.
567   o Aesthetic improvements in many dialogs.
568
569  
570 0.0.1   28-Feb-2006
571   o Initial testing release.
572   o Basic features include:
573     - Starting/stopping/monitoring Tor
574     - Bandwidth graph
575     - Message log
576     - Basic server configuration
577
