0.1.0 01-Mar-2008 o Migrate to CMake as our build system, instead of the previous mix of autoconf and qmake. See the updated INSTALL file for more information. o Add an OpenSSL license exception so Vidalia can be linked against OpenSSL and redistributed. Also include the text of the GPLv3, since our license says "GPLv2 or later." o Don't try to 'SETCONF HashedControlPassword' if we couldn't hash the control password, otherwise we could end up disabling authentication. (Ticket #305) o If Vidalia is built against Qt >= 4.3 with SSL support, then do our GeoIP lookups over an SSL connection. o Work around a crash bug with a sorted QTreeWidget that occurs with Qt 4.3.3, and possibly later versions as well. o Parse ReachableAddresses values properly when there are multiple ports specified on a single line. o RESETCONF the value of PublishServerDescriptor when the user switches from being a relay to acting as only a client. o Add support for Tor's STATUS_GENERAL, STATUS_CLIENT, and STATUS_SERVER status events. o Listen for the DANGEROUS_VERSION general status event and warn the user if their version of Tor is no longer recommended. o Listen for the CIRCUIT_ESTABLISHED client status event and only turn the yellow onion status icon green after Tor has successfully established a circuit. o If the user's vidalia.conf contains an empty value for their Tor executable, use the default for the user's platform. o If the user is running a bridge relay with Tor 0.2.0.13-alpha or newer, then set 'BridgeRelay 1' when configuring their bridge. o Don't save a randomly generated control password to Vidalia's configuration file. If Vidalia gets disconnected from Tor or crashes, we will no longer be able to reconnect. o Don't let users save an empty string for a Tor executable in the Settings dialog. o Apply the changes for settings pages in the same order in which the pages appear in the Settings dialog. The only two pages for which this matters are the 'Network' and 'Sharing' pages. (Ticket #336) o Old Jabber clients apparently use port 5223 for encrypted connections. So, include that port as part of the "Instant Messaging" exit policy checkbox. (Ticket #333) o Stop displaying flags next to the language names in the Appearance settings page. o Add a "How do I find a bridge?" link and corresponding help text to the 'Network' settings page. o Add a 'BrowserExecutable' configuration option to launch a Web browser when Tor has built a circuit, and exit Vidalia when the browser is closed. Patch from Steven J. Murdoch . o Add 'ProxyExecutable' and 'ProxyExecutableArguments' configuration options to launch a proxy application with given parameters when Vidalia starts, and close it when Vidalia exits. Patches from Steven J. Murdoch . o Respond to the Delete key in the network map by closing whatever circuits or streams are currently selected. Suggested by Andrew Lewman. o Rename the 'Relay' settings page to the 'Sharing' settings page. o Add a vidalia.desktop desktop entry file that can be installed with 'make install'. o Add an Albanian GUI translation from Frederik Nosi. o Add a Hebrew GUI and Win32 installer translation. o Updated Finnish, Norwegian, Polish, Russian, and Swedish translations. 0.0.16 22-Nov-2007 o Fix compilation on Mac OS X 10.3 (Panther). o GETCONF RelayBandwidthRate and RelayBandwidthBurst properly on Tor >= 0.2.0.1-alpha. In 0.0.15, we were SETCONFing RelayBandwidthFoo when appropriate, but always GETCONFing BandwidthFoo. Fixes Ticket #298. o Display the correct default list of allowed ports in the Network settings page, and don't try to save an empty list. Noticed by Roger Dingledine. o Only remember the torrc and datadir values if Vidalia started Tor, or if the user changed the displayed values. o Fix some dumb logic in determing whether the Windows we're running on supports window transparency. o Use the correct icon for the "Close Stream" context menu action in the circuit and stream list widget. o Create the message log, network map, bandwidth graph, and settings dialogs without parents, so they can be independently brought to the foreground on Windows Vista. o Update the default bandwidth rate and burst rate to 5MB and 10MB, respectively, to match Tor's defaults. o Make the "Use this proxy for HTTPS also" checkbox checked by default. o Disable the labels that display the user's bridge relay information if the user is not running a bridge, instead of just disabling the copy button. o Modified the Mac OS X bundle installer to set Vidalia to start automatically on login for the user that installed the bundle. o Added an Arabic translation from Ahmad Gharbeia. o Updated Finnish, German, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese translations. 0.0.15 24-Oct-2007 o Add a new 'Network' settings page to the config dialog that lets users configure an HTTP/HTTPS proxy, specify allowed ports if they are behind a restrictive firewall or proxy, and set up bridges and tunneled dir conns. o Add a 'Help Censored Users Connect to the Tor Network' option to the 'Server' settings page to help users set up their Tor as a brigde relay. This option is only available for those running Tor 0.2.0.8-alpha or newer. o Stop hardcoding a font size of 10 in many places. This made the fonts on Mac OS X look non-standard and inconsistent. o Restructure the code that manages GETCONFing values from Tor and then later SETCONFing any changed values to make it easier to add more pages like the 'Network' and 'Server' settings pages in the future. o If we prompt the user to enter a control password and they enter one, don't keep trying to use our randomly generated password. o Fix a bug in the network map that would cause the user to sometimes be unable to select a circuit or server after clicking and dragging the mouse in one of the lists. (Ticket #269) o Stop leaking memory for pretty much every circuit we plotted on the network map. Found by Roger Dingledine and his Valgrind. o Stop leaking memory if TorMapWidget::addRouter() is called for a router that is already on the map. Also found by Roger Dingledine and his Valgrind. o Stop leaking memory used by QTranslator and the configuration dialog on exit. o Default to using an ORPort of 443 when setting up a server on Windows. 9001 is still the default everywhere else. o Fix a crash bug that could occur when Vidalia gets disconnected from Tor while waiting for a response to a previous command. Bug reported by Roger Dingledine. (Ticket #295) o Create a single TorProcess object used to start and stop Tor, instead of creating a new one each time and cleaning up after Tor exits. (Ticket #294) o Do the control connection asynchronously so we aren't trying to call waitForConnected() in the control socket thread before it has an event loop running. o Don't start Tor or test for a running Tor with an open control port until the main event loop is running. o Older Tors write their state file even if all we're doing is --hash-password. So if the user has configured a non-default data directory, include that in the list of command line arguments when we run Tor to hash the user's control password. o Support changing Tor's control port and authentication settings without having to restart Tor for the settings to take effect. o Recognize the REMAP stream status in STREAM events. o Allow the control panel window to expand horizontally and vertically to fit longer translated text labels. o Make VClickLabel right-to-left aware so the control panel buttons look correct when using the Farsi translation. o Fix our configure.in to produce a Makefile instead of an Xcode project on OS X. This only affected users who got Qt 4.3 from Trolltech's .dmg installers. o Fix our configure.in to tell QMake the fully-expanded path to which our man page should be installed. o Fix our configure.in so we can use it to build under Cygwin or MinGW with Qt >= 4.3.0. o Move to a consistent use of the word "Relay" instead of "Server" or "Router" in the interface. o Convert the path separators in a configured data directory to whatever the platform standard is. o Remove the custom palette used in all Vidalia's windows that had been around since 0.0.1. o Attempt to standardize the GUI fonts to whatever the user's platform thinks is best. o Default to using Qt's Windows Vista style on Windows Vista. On other Windowses or any non-Mac platform, default to the Cleanlooks style if we're building with Qt >= 4.3. o Add some information to the help browser about the new network settings and bridge relay configuration, as well as the new authentication settings in 0.0.14. o When the user clicks the Help button in the Settings dialog, take them directly to the help topic for whichever settings page they are currently viewing. o Added Torbutton 1.1.9.1-alpha to the Mac OS X bundles, thanks to Andrew Lewman. o Disable enable-edit-actions, enable-remote-toggle, and enable-remote-http-toggle in the bundled Privoxy configuration. Suggested by Greg Fleischer. o Updated Finnish, French, German, Norwegian, Polish, and Russian translations. 0.0.14 26-Aug-2007 o Add support for Tor's HashedControlPassword and CookieAuthentication options. Password authentication is enabled by default. o Add support for Tor's new PROTOCOLINFO control command. o Support running on Windows NT 4.0 again. o Check to see if "%PROGRAMFILES%\Vidalia Bundle\Tor\tor.exe" exists when setting the default Tor executable on Win32. If it doesn't, fall back to "%PROGRAMFILES%\Tor\tor.exe". (Ticket #262) o Allow the people who think clicking 'New Identity' is the solution to everything to be disappointed six times per minute, instead of once. o Add the ability to configure Tor's data directory. o Give users the option of not removing %APPDATA%\Tor and %APPDATA%\Vidalia in the Win32 Vidalia and bundle installers. o Add a Czech GUI and installer translation from el Mar. o Updated Finnish and German translations. 0.0.13 02-Aug-2007 o Remove the control protocol version checking logic, since Tor will now just hang up if the first command received isn't a valid AUTHENTICATE command. o Fix a bug where Vidalia would display an incorrect error message if the user started Vidalia, stopped Tor, ran Tor manually, then clicked 'Start Tor'. (Reported by arma) o Maintain a list of address mappings, so we can try to replace IP addresses in stream targets with host names when displaying them on the network map. (Suggested by phobos) o Stop including help documentation for each language, even if it is untranslated. If there is no translated help documentation for a language, simply load the documentation from the English version. o Use RelayBandwidthBurst and RelayBandwidthRate on Tor >= 0.2.0.1-alpha. o Remove from the server config page the 'Address' text box, the 'Get Address' button, and 'Automatically Update' checkbox. o Don't do balloon messages on Windows 2000; I'm told it doesn't work even though QSystemTrayIcon::supportsMessages() says it should. o Removed a duplicate check when determining what control event Vidalia received from Tor. o Check /usr/sbin/ for a Tor binary if one isn't found in $PATH. o Fixed compilation on Mac OS X Panther. o Support building with Qt 4.3 in our configure.in (no code changes required). o Change the "Start Tor" control panel button text to "Starting Tor" while Tor is starting. o Added a "Control Panel" item to the OS X dock icon's context menu. o Added tooltips to the circuits and streams listed on the network map. o Stop putting a torrc in %APPDATA%\Tor if the user is also installing Vidalia, since they'll just get confused from having two torrc files. o Added a Swedish GUI and installer translation from Amin Amini. o Added an Italian installer translation from Alex Mazzariol. o Update Finnish, French, German, Italian, Russian and Spanish translations. 0.0.12 01-Jun-2007 o Added a new "Control Panel" main window that appears when Vidalia first starts. This dialog is for people who either aren't trained to look in their system tray area for a Vidalia icon, or those who simply do not have a system tray area. o Added -logfile and -loglevel command-line options that can log useful Vidalia debugging messages to a file or to stdout. Hopefully this will help make tracking down future Vidalia bugs easier. o Add a box to the Advanced settings page to change the IP address on which we will try to connect to Tor's control port, instead of always assuming 127.0.0.1. (Ticket #81) o Don't yell at the user if our SAVECONF fails after changing some configuration settings; just remember the intended settings and reapply them next time Tor runs. o Restore a window to its previous state each time it is opened, not just the first time after Vidalia is started. o Only allow the 'New Identity' button to be clicked once every 60 seconds. o Show the number of online servers in the status tip for the server list, as well as the total number of servers. o Expand filenames that use "~/", "%APPDATA%", or "%PROGRAMFILES%" in either the path to Tor's executable or torrc. o Fix the message log timestamp format to be "MMM dd hh:mm:ss.zzz", instead of "MMM dd hh:mm:ss:zzz". o Don't create the help browser window until we actually need it, so we don't waste memory on a window the user might never use. o Fix a minor bug that's been around since 0.0.1: actually remove objects from the list of targets for an event, instead of from a copy of the list. o Display command-line options information as a message box so even Win32 folks can see it, if they give Vidalia a bogus argument. o Revert back to the single uninstaller strategy on Win32, so don't leave program groups behind after uninstalling the bundle. (Ticket #237) o Start Privoxy minimized if the user selects "Run installed components now" after completing the Win32 installer. o Don't skip past the Win32 installer results immediately, since there could have been errors the user should see. o Include a default.action file for Privoxy in the Win32 and OS X bundles with the +limit-connect{1-} fix. o Include some more helpful text in the Win32 installer welcome screen and category descriptions. o Fix the paths to *-spec.txt in the script that builds the OS X bundles. o Include Tor_Uninstaller.applescript and uninstall_tor_bundle.sh in the OS X bundle. (Ticket #230) o Updated Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Norwegian, Polish and Spanish translations. 0.0.11 07-Feb-2007 o Fix a race condition that could (and did) cause Vidalia to freeze. o RESETCONF all server-related settings when the be-a-server checkbox gets unchecked, not just ORPort and Nickname. o Add support for zlib or gzip compressed GeoIP responses. o Handle chunked transfer encodings properly in GeoIP responses. o Be a little less eager to send GeoIP requests right away. Now we wait 10 seconds after adding an address to the queue, or a maximum of 30 seconds, before sending the request. o Tolerate entries in geoip-cache that have no timestamp. If an entry does not have a timestamp, use the current date and time. o Respond to double-clicks on the map. Double left-click zooms in towards the mouse pointer and double right-click zooms out. o If Vidalia is built with Qt >= 4.2, use the open and closed hand cursors in ZImageView when panning the world map. o Qt >= 4.2 handles the sorting in addTopLevelItem() in the server list. We still do the sorted inserts ourselves in older Qts. o Display circuits as a list of server nicknames (like we currently do), but save the original circuit paths (possibly with key IDs for non-Named servers) so we don't display the wrong server information when the user selects that circuit. o Fix a bug introduced in 0.0.10 that caused a server's little pinpoint on the map to not be highlighted green when the server is selected in the server list. o Update the stream target address on every stream status event, not just NEW stream events. o Add an EU flag for the server list. o Add a "Cancel" button to the message box that asks server operators if they want to delay server shutdown or kill Tor right away. (Ticket #222) o Add version information to our compiled Win32 vidalia.exe. o Be more tolerant of Win32 people removing the Tor service out from under Vidalia. o Explicitly specify the tab order in the bandwidth graph. o Fix a bug in parsing Tor's version string when it contains modifiers such as '-alpha'. o Make Circuit::hops() correctly return an empty QStringList for empty paths, instead of a QStringList with one empty QString. o Do a better job of detecting Qt 4.2 debug libs on OS X. There were a few necessary non-Qt libs missing from LIBS when we did our AC_TRY_LINK. o Add vidalia.spec to our configure.in, so the RPM spec file stays current. o Add a Traditional Chinese installer and GUI translation from Cloud. o Updated Dutch, Farsi, Polish, Russian, and Simplified Chinese translations. 0.0.10 25-Dec-2006 o Load NT service functions on demand so we can run on Windows 95/98/ME again. (Ticket #211) o Add a column to the list of servers in the network map window, with a little flag icon for each server. o If the network map window is not visible, queue all GeoIP requests until either the window becomes visible again or the queue contains requests for at least one-quarter of all known servers. o If we get a valid geoip response telling us the geoip database doesn't have a location for the requested IP address, cache that response for one week so we don't keep sending requests that are likely to fail anyway. o Use QSystemTrayIcon when available (except on Mac). If we are using QSystemTrayIcon on systems that support balloon messages, use a balloon to indicate when NEWNYM is successful. We still show a message box when NEWNYM fails. (Ticket #183) o Add a graph style dropdown box to the bandwidth graph settings, so you can choose between a fancy alpha blended area graph and a faster, simpler line graph. o Add a button to continue starting Vidalia anyway, even if Vidalia thinks there might be another Vidalia process already running. It's possible that a previous Vidalia did not exit cleanly and another process ended up with the old Vidalia's PID. o Add a "Zoom to Circuit" option to the circuit context menu in the network map's list of circuits. o Add a context menu to the dock icon on OS X. (Ticket #135) o If we're building with Qt >= 4.2.0, then use its new saveGeometry() and restoreGeometry() functions to save and restore window size and position. If we're still using an old Qt, make sure the window fits on screen when we try to restore it. (Ticket #207) o Fix a bug in how the server points were keyed on the network map that could cause some circuits to not get drawn. (Ticket #175) o Really close the read channel when we want to stop reading from the Tor process's stdout. This would sometimes cause duplicate messages in the message log if Vidalia was running on a non-English-speaking Windows. o Be more correct about what we consider as valid latitudes and longitudes. o Give a better error message if we fail to determine what version of Tor's control protocol is being spoken. o Clarify some labels in the message log settings. (Ticket #203) o Settle on a convention of not ending tool tips or status tips with a period. o Start shipping a geoip-cache file in our Win32 installers so people have some initial geographic information, instead of starting out entirely empty-handed. o Add a Farsi translation. o Add a Spanish translation contributed by desolator. o Add a Portuguese (Brazilian) translation contributed by Mabat Haram. o Add a Simplified Chinese installer translation contributed by omg. o Updates to Finnish, French, German, Italian, Norwegian, Polish, Russian, and Simplified Chinese translations. 0.0.9 05-Nov-2006 o Added a new, more intuitive interface for setting a server's bandwidth rate and exit policies. o Improved our ./configure script so it will detect old or non-debug versions of Qt and link accordingly. o Added support for more easily building Qt as a Universal binary on OS X. o Added a right-click option to circuits listed in the network map dialog to close the circuit (Ticket #176). o Added a right-click option to servers listed in the network map dialog to zoom in on the server on the map (Ticket #176). o Stop using a custom font and just use the platform default on all dialogs. o Add "Close Window" shortcuts for Linux (Ctrl+W). o Fixed a crash bug that would occur when saving messages in the message log (Ticket #185). o Fixed a bug that would cause messages with identical timestamps to not get copied to the clipboard (Ticket #190). o Ask if the user wants to delay shutting down their server when Vidalia exits, to give clients time to find new circuits. We previously only did this when the user stopped Tor, but wasn't exiting Vidalia. o If Windows is restarting, then don't ask about delaying a server shut down; just stop Tor and exit immediately so Windows doesn't yell at us. o Detect if Tor was installed as an NT service prior to Vidalia, so we don't accidentally remove it. o Create a new torrc and specify a control port for the Tor NT service, so it doesn't die when the user tries to start the service and we don't have to tell the user to go add a line to their torrc. o Fixed a bug that caused Vidalia to crash if it tried to read in a bogus geoip-cache file from its data directory (Ticket #184). o Refuse to cache information we did not ask for that we received in response to a GeoIP request. o Wait no more than ten seconds after queueing a GeoIP request before sending it, so requests don't starve if we keep constantly getting new descriptors. o Ask Tor what its SocksPort and SocksAddress is before building our GeoIP request, instead of always assuming Tor is listening on 127.0.0.1:9050. o Explicitly specify the sort order for the message log and server list, so things aren't backwards when linking with Qt 4.2.x. o Add support for translating the Vidalia and Vidalia bundle installers. o Start bundling Torbutton with the Vidalia bundle installer. o Add a Norwegian (Bokmal) translation contributed by xiando. o Updates to the Finnish, French, German, and Polish translations. 0.0.8 03-Oct-2006 o Vidalia will now attempt to connect to an existing Tor's ControlPort before starting its own Tor process. If it finds a Tor with an open ControlPort, Vidalia will "attach" to that Tor instead of starting a new process. o Vidalia now supports running Tor as an NT service on Windows. o When Vidalia starts its own Tor process, it will now default to starting it with a "-f ~/.vidalia/torrc", to avoid permissions conflicts when running Tor as a user that does not have write access to the default torrc. The torrc used when starting Tor is still configurable. o Fix a bug that was causing unexpected behavior with many unrelated Windows applications. o Do a better job of determining if another Vidalia process is running on Windows, to eliminate all the false positives reported. o Major performance improvements related to loading the network map. o Support receiving server identities in circ events, as well as names, so Vidalia will work with Tor 0.1.2.2-alpha and later. o Moved the "New Identity" button to the main popup menu for easier access. o Vidalia dialogs remember their last size and location when Vidalia exits and restore their size and location the next time Vidalia runs. o Vidalia windows now close in response to a Command-W on Mac OS X. o Added a "Zoom To Fit" button to the network map, to zoom in on the active circuits. o Numerous minor aesthetic and usability improvements to many of Vidalia's dialogs. o Fix a bug that was causing signal conflict warnings on Debian. o Fix a crash that would occur when exiting Vidalia after an attempt to start Tor with a non-existent executable. o Add a Bulgarian translation contributed by kutia0001. o Add a Dutch translation contributed by Saedian. o Add a Hungarian translation contributed by Tibor Fekete. o Add a Polish translation contributed by ZeeWolf. o Updates to the Finnish, French, and Russian translations. 0.0.7 07-Jul-2006 o Fix a bug that was causing Vidalia to freeze frequently for some people, particularly when running at a verbose log level. o Fix a bug that would cause Windows Vidalias to not want to start after Vidalia had been killed via the Task Manager. o Add a French translation contributed by Michel Burkhardt. o In the network map, update the displayed uptime by looking at the difference between now and the publication time, and add that difference to the published uptime. 0.0.6 23-Jun-2006 o Fix the network map to properly remove circuits after they are closed. o Fix our configure script to properly handle the --prefix option (patch by Alexander Wirt). o Check if Vidalia is already running when we start. If Vidalia is already running, then warn and exit in the second instance. o Strip all invalid characters from the server's nickname and make sure the user can't enter any. o Default to the Tor binary located in the user's $PATH, instead of trying to guess directory locations. o Add support for adjusting a server's BandwidthRate and BandwidthBurst values. o Store Vidalia's settings in a file, (rather than in the registry on Windows), so Vidalia can be more portable. Note that settings aren't "imported" from the registry, so 0.0.5 users will have to configure their Vidalia settings again. o Make the bandwidth graph just a normal window instead of a tool window, so it can hide behind other Vidalia windows, if necessary. o On OS X, ensure that the About, Configure, and Exit actions get merged into the "Vidalia" menu in the default menubar when Vidalia is running in a non-English language. o Add an Italian translation contributed by Alex Mazzariol. o Add a Russian translation contributed by ygrek. o Add a manpage for Vidalia contributed by Alexander Wirt. 0.0.5 02-Jun-2006 o Make the "Always On Top" property of the bandwidth graph optional. o Add a new dialog showing a list of routers that the user's Tor currently knows about, as well as the user's current circuits and streams and detailed information about individual routers. The circuits and router geographic locations are plotted on a world map. Thanks to Christoph Sieghart, Michael Zuercher, and Adam Tomjack for help with this feature. o Stop automatically scrolling to the newest item added to the message log, if the user is looking through their message history. o Create a horizontal scrollbar on the message log when an excessively long message is logged. o Add support for the NEWNYM signal in the form of a "New Identity" button, to force Tor to use only clean circuits for new application requests. o Add a Mac OS X bundle. o Add a Finnish translation contributed by DJHasis. o Add a German translation contributed by Christoph Sieghart. o Fix a bug that caused people running servers to update their public IP address too often if they had the "Automatically Update" option checked. 0.0.4 09-May-2006 o Add a fixed set of Windows .ico files from Dan Christensen. Our contributed set in 0.0.3 apparently had a blank image in it that some old Windowses would use instead of the icon that actually had an image. o Add an option for servers to check periodically to see if their public IP address has changed. o Give servers the option to shut down after 30 seconds, to give clients time to find new circuits, instead of just always killing Tor immediately. o Improve GUI responsiveness when waiting for the Tor process to finish starting up. o Be smarter about guessing the default location of Tor in non-English Windowses. 0.0.3 13-Apr-2006 o Fixed a server configuration bug that caused people to not really be a middleman node, even though the checkbox told them they were. o Fixed a bug in choosing a default language that caused help documents to sometimes not appear. o Fixed the Win32 bundle installer to not leave 2 files and a registry key laying around after an uninstall. Also give users the option of launching Vidalia when the solo installer is finished. o Fixed a bug where Vidalia would ignore Windows when asked to shut down because the system is restarting. o Improved tray icon support on older Windowses. Also started using a new set of icons created by Matt Hanson, based on our previous set by Corinna Habets. o Improved help document accessibility by adding "Help" buttons to many dialogs and error message boxes. 0.0.2 02-Apr-2006 o Added an integrated help browser and documentation. o Added exit policy configuration support for servers. o Added support for language translations and language selection. o Added a Simplified Chinese (zh_CN) translation from Wu Xiaoguong. o Added support for changing Vidalia's interface style. o Aesthetic improvements in many dialogs. 0.0.1 28-Feb-2006 o Initial testing release. o Basic features include: - Starting/stopping/monitoring Tor - Bandwidth graph - Message log - Basic server configuration
