ChangeLog for Privoxy
--------------------------------------------------------------------
-*** Since 3.0.10
-
+*** Version 3.0.11 ***
+
+- On most platforms, outgoing connections can be kept alive and
+ reused if the server supports it. Whether or not this improves
+ things depends on the connection.
+- When dropping privileges, membership in supplementary groups
+ is given up as well. Not doing that can lead to Privoxy running
+ with more rights than necessary and violates the principle of
+ least privilege. Users of the --user option are advised to update.
+ Thanks to Matthias Drochner for reporting the problem,
+ providing the initial patch and testing the final version.
+- Passing invalid users or groups with the --user option
+ didn't lead to program exit. Regression introduced in 3.0.7.
+- The match all section has been moved from default.action
+ to a new file called match-all.action. As a result the
+ default.action no longer needs to be touched by the user
+ and can be safely overwritten by updates.
+- The standard.action file has been removed. Its content
+ is now part of the default.action file.
+- In some situations the logged content length was
+ slightly too low.
- Crunched requests are logged with their own log level.
If you used "debug 1" in the past, you'll probably want
to additionally enable "debug 1024", otherwise only passed
requests will be logged. If you only care about crunched
requests, simply replace "debug 1" with "debug 1024".
+- The crunch reason has been moved to the beginning of the
+ crunch message. For HTTP URLs, the protocol is logged as well.
+- Log messages are shortened by not printing the thread id
+ on its own (as opposed to putting it inside "Privoxy()".
+- The config option socket-timeout has been added to control
+ the time Privoxy waits for data to arrive on a socket.
- A "clear log" view option was added to the mingw32 version
to clear out all of the lines in the Privoxy log window.
Based on a patch submitted by T Ford.
- The mingw32 version uses "critical sections" now which
prevents log message corruption under load. As a side effect,
the "no thread-safe PRNG" warning could be removed as well.
+- The mingw32 version's task bar icon is changed if Privoxy
+ is toggled of. XXX: Describe how.
- Support for remote toggling is controlled by the configure
option --disable-toggle only. In previous versions it also
depended on the action editor and thus configuring with the
--disable-editor option would disable remote toggling support
as well.
+- Requests with invalid HTTP versions are rejected.
+- The template symbol @date@ can be used to include a date(1)-like
+ time string. Initial patch submitted by Endre Szabo.
+- Responses from shoutcast servers are accepted again.
+ Problem reported and fix suggested by Stefan.
- The hide-forwarded-for-headers action has been replaced with
the change-x-forwarded-for{} action which can also be used to
add X-Forwarded-For headers. The latter functionality already
