  ChangeLog for Privoxy
  --------------------------------------------------------------------
+ *** Version 3.0.25 beta ***
+ 
+ - Bug fixes:
+   - Always use the current toggle state for new requests.
+     Previously new requests on reused connections inherited
+     the toggle state from the previous request even though
+     the toggle state could have changed.
+     Reported by Robert Klemme.
+   - Fixed two buffer-overflows in the (deprecated) static
+     pcre code. These bugs are not considered security issues
+     as the input is trusted.
+     Found with afl-fuzz and ASAN.
+ 
+ - General improvements:
+   - Added support for client-specific tags which allow Privoxy
+     admins to pre-define tags that are set for all requests from
+     clients that previously opted in through the CGI interface.
+     They are useful in multi-user setups where admins may
+     want to allow users to disable certain actions and filters
+     for themselves without affecting others.
+     In single-user setups they are useful to allow more fine-grained
+     toggling. For example to disable request blocking while still
+     crunching cookies, or to disable experimental filters only.
+     This is an experimental feature, the syntax and behaviour may
+     change in future versions.
+     Sponsored by Robert Klemme.
+   - Dynamic filters and taggers now support a $listen-address variable
+     which contains the address the request came in on.
+     For external filters the variable is called $PRIVOXY_LISTEN_ADDRESS.
+     Original patch contributed by pursievro.
+   - Add client-header-tagger 'listen-address'.
+   - Include the listen-address in the log message when logging new requests.
+     Patch contributed by pursievro.
+   - Turn invalid max-client-connections values into fatal errors.
+   - The show-status page now shows whether or not dates before 1970
+     and after 2038 are expected to be handled properly.
+     This is mainly useful for Privoxy-Regression-Test but could
+     also come handy when dealing with time-related support requests.
+   - On Mac OS X the thread id in log messages are more likely to
+     be unique now.
+   - When complaining about missing filters, the filter type is logged
+     as well.
+   - A couple of harmless coverity warnings were silenced
+     (CID #161202, CID #161203, CID #161211).
+ 
+ - Action file improvements:
+   - Filtering is disabled for Range requests to let download resumption
+     and Windows updates work with the default configuration.
+   - Unblock ".ardmediathek.de/".
+     Reported by ThTomate in #932.
+ 
+ - Documentation improvements:
+   - Add FAQ entry for crashes caused by memory limits.
+   - Remove obsolete FAQ entry about a bug in PHP 4.2.3.
+   - Mention the new mailing lists were appropriate.
+     As the archives have not been migrated, continue to
+     mention the archives at SF in the contacting section
+     for now.
+   - Note that the templates should be adjusted if Privoxy is
+     running as intercepting proxy without getting all requests.
+   - A bunch of links were converted to https://.
+   - Rephrase onion service paragraph to make it more obvious
+     that Tor is involved and that the whole website (and not
+     just the homepage) is available as onion service.
+   - Streamline the "More information" section on the homepage further
+     by additionally ditching the link to the 'See also' section
+     of the user manual. The section contains mostly links that are
+     directly reachable from the homepage already and the rest is
+     not significant enough to get a link from the homepage.
+   - Change the add-header{} example to set the DNT header
+     and use a complete section to make copy and pasting
+     more convenient.
+     Add a comment to make it obvious that adding the
+     header is not recommended for obvious reasons.
+     Using the DNT header as example was suggested by
+     Leo Wzukw.
+   - Streamline the support-and-service template
+     Instead of linking to the various support trackers
+     (whose URLs hopefully change soon), link to the
+     contact section of the user manual to increase the
+     chances that users actually read it.
+   - Add a FAQ entry for tainted sockets.
+   - More sections in the documentation have stable URLs now.
+   - FAQ: Explain why 'ping config.privoxy.org' is not expected
+     to reach a local Privoxy installation.
+   - Note that donations done through Zwiebelfreunde e.V. currently
+     can't be checked automatically.
+   - Updated section regarding starting Privoxy under OS X.
+   - Use dedicated start instructions for FreeBSD and ElectroBSD.
+   - Removed release instructions for AIX. They haven't been working
+     for years and unsurprisingly nobody seems to care.
+   - Removed obsolete reference to the solaris-dist target.
+   - Updated the release instructions for FreeBSD.
+   - Removed unfinished release instructions for Amiga OS and HP-UX 11.
+   - Added a pointer to the Cygwin Time Machine for getting the last release of
+     Cygwin version 1.5 to use for building Privoxy on Windows.
+   - Various typos have been fixed.
+ 
+ - Infrastructure improvements:
+   - The website is no longer hosted at SourceForge and
+     can be reached through https now.
+   - The mailing lists at SourceForge have been deprecated,
+     you can subscribe to the new ones at: https://lists.privoxy.org/
+   - Migrating the remaining services from SourceForge is
+     work in progress (TODO list item #53).
+ 
+ - Build system improvements:
+   - Add configure argument to optimistically redefine FD_SETSIZE
+     with the intent to change the maximum number of client
+     connections Privoxy can handle. Only works with some libcs.
+     Sponsored by Robert Klemme.
+   - Let the tarball-dist target skip files in ".git".
+   - Let the tarball-dist target work in cwds other than current.
+   - Make the 'clean' target faster when run from a git repository.
+   - Include tools in the generic distribution.
+   - Let the gen-dist target work in cwds other than current.
+   - Sort find output that is used for distribution tarballs
+     to get reproducible results.
+   - Don't add '-src' to the name of the tar ball generated by the
+     gen-dist target. The package isn't a source distribution but a
+     binary package.
+     While at it, use a variable for the name to reduce the chances
+     that the various references get out of sync and fix the gen-upload
+     target which was looking in the wrong directory.
+   - Add regression-tests.action to the files that are distributed.
+   - The gen-dist target which was broken since 2002 (r1.92) has been fixed.
+   - Remove genclspec.sh which has been obsolete since 2009.
+   - Remove obsolete reference to Redhat spec file.
+   - Remove the obsolete announce target which has been commented out years ago.
+   - Let rsync skip files if the checksums match.
+ 
+ - Privoxy-Regression-Test:
+   - Add a "Default level offset" directive which can be used to
+     change the default level by a given value.
+     This directive affects all tests located after it until the end
+     of the file or a another "Default level offset" directive is reached.
+     The purpose of this directive is to make it more convenient to skip
+     similar tests in a given file without having to remove or disable
+     the tests completely.
+   - Let test level 17 depend on FEATURE_64_BIT_TIME_T
+     instead of FEATURE_PTHREAD which has no direct connection
+     to the time_t size.
+   - Fix indentation in perldoc examples.
+   - Don't overlook directives in the first line of the action file.
+   - Bump version to 0.7.
+   - Fix detection of the Privoxy version now that https://
+     is used for the website.
+
