0.2.12 10-Apr-2011

• Vidalia's SVN repository has been migrated to Git. All branches but
  master have been archived for later review, since SVN trunk had changed
  significantly; they should be reviewed later to determine whether
  they can and should still be merged. All \version $Id$ headers have been
  removed since Git does not support $Id$.
• As part of the move, Vidalia's Trac is now at:
  https://trac.torproject.org/
  All Trac numbers in Vidalia 0.2.12 and beyond refer to the new Trac
  entries. The old Trac is archived for posterity at:
  https://trac-vidalia.torproject.org/projects/vidalia
• Add support for Tor's ControlSocket as an alternative to ControlPort. It
  can be used for Linux maintainers to build a better default interaction
  between Tor and Vidalia by just setting the right permissions and file
  owner on the socket file for the connection. Using ControlSocket means
  you don't need to worry about authentication methods with ControlPort.
  Resolves bug 2091.
• Add a way to edit arbitrary torrc entries while Tor is running. Now
  Vidalia users have more flexibility for configuring Tor. This change
  doesn't replace editing torrc directly, because on some systems
  (like Debian) Tor can't write to its torrc file. Resolves bug 2083.
• Remove Vidalia's direct dependency on OpenSSL. This dependency had
  caused Vidalia to fail to run on FreeBSD (due to a bug in the FreeBSD
  ports collection) and Fedora 14 (due to an incompatibility between
  OpenSSL and Fedora's SELinux configuration). Resolves bug 2287 and
  2611.
• Restore compatibility with Windows 2000. An update to the MiniUPnPc
  library had introduced an unnecessary dependency on a system library
  not included in Windows 2000. Fixes bug 2612.
• Fix how the advanced message log window displays message updates when
  messages are coming in too quickly, for example when you're listening
  to debug-level messages from Tor. Fixes bug 2093.
• Add a what's this? link to the bridge option to explain in a more verbose
  fashion what being a bridge involves. Resolves bug 1995.
• Prompt users to restart Tor after changing the path to torrc. Fixes bug
  2086.
• Disable the directory port configuration field when configuring a
  bridge. A bridge does not need to operate a separate directory port,
  and operating one can make a bridge easier to detect. Fixes bug 2431.
• When Vidalia asks Tor for a bridge's usage history before anyone has
  used it, correctly report that no clients have used the bridge recently.
  Previously, it would incorrectly warn that it was unable to retrieve the
  bridge's usage history. Fixes bug 2186.
