+  Tor 0.2.3.11-alpha marks feature-freeze for the 0.2.3 tree. It deploys
+  the last step of the plan to limit maximum circuit length, includes
+  a wide variety of hidden service performance and correctness fixes,
+  works around an OpenSSL security flaw if your distro is too stubborn
+  to upgrade. and fixes a bunch of smaller issues.

     - Fix our implementation of crypto_random_hostname() so it can't
       overflow on ridiculously large inputs. (No Tor version has ever
       provided this kind of bad inputs, but let's be correct in depth.)
