+1. CHANGES
-November 2010, Privoxy 3.0.17 stable is released.
-
-This is mainly a bug-fix release for the previously released Privoxy 3.0.16.
-
-It contains fixes for two bugs that could cause connections to hang under
-certain circumstances when keep-alive support was enabled, until they timed
-out or where closed by the server.
-
-As usual, there are also a bunch of minor improvements. For details please
-see the "ChangeLog", the "What's New" section or the "Upgrader's Notes" in
-the User Manual.
+For a list of changes in this release, please have a look at the "ChangeLog",
+the "What's New" section or the "Upgrader's Notes" in the User Manual.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please don't sent private support requests to individual Privoxy developers,
either use the mailing lists or the support trackers.
+If you have to contact a Privoxy developer directly for other reasons, please
+send a real mail and do not bother with SourceForge's messaging system. Answers
+to SourceForge messages are usually bounced by SourceForge's mail server in
+which case the developer wasted time writing a response you don't get. From
+your point of view it will look like your message has been completely ignored,
+so this is frustrating for all parties involved.
+
Note that the Privoxy mailing lists are moderated. Posts from unsubscribed
addresses have to be accepted manually by a moderator. This may cause a delay
of several days and if you use a subject that doesn't clearly mention Privoxy
bother to add an email address when using the tracker. If you prefer to
communicate through email, just use one of the mailing lists directly.
+If you are new to reporting problems, you might be interested in How to Report
+Bugs Effectively.

The appendix of the Privoxy User Manual also has helpful information on
understanding actions, and action debugging.
