+  o Major bugfixes (Exit nodes):
+    - Fix an issue causing high-bandwidth exit nodes to fail a majority
+      or all of their DNS requests, making them basically unsuitable for
+      regular usage in Tor circuits. The problem is related to
+      libevent's DNS handling, but we can work around it in Tor. Fixes
+      bugs 21394 and 18580; bugfix on 0.1.2.2-alpha which introduced
+      eventdns. Credit goes to Dhalgren for identifying and finding a
+      workaround to this bug and to gamambel, arthuredelstein and
+      arma in helping to track it down and analyze it.
