 Changes in version 0.2.0.3-alpha - 2007-07-29
   o Major features:
+    - The first pieces of our "bridge" design for blocking-resistance
+      are implemented. People can run bridge directory authorities;
+      people can run bridges; and people can configure their Tor clients
+      with a set of bridges to use as the first hop into the Tor network.
+      See http://archives for details.

     - Be even more aggressive about separating local traffic from relayed
       traffic when RelayBandwidthRate is set. (Refines proposal 111.)
