- Fixed crashes with "listen-addr :8118" (SF Bug #902).
- The regression was introduced in 3.0.25 beta and reported
- by Marvin Renich in Debian bug #834941.

+ Check the actual URL for redirects when https inspecting requests.
+ Previously Privoxy would only check the path which resulted in
+ rewrite results being rejected as invalid URLs.

<para>
- Log when privoxy is toggled on or off via cgi interface.

<listitem>
<para>
- Highlight the "Info: Now toggled " on/off log message
- in the Windows log viewer.
+ Make CGI_PREFIX protocol-relative when building with FEATURE_HTTPS_INSPECTION.
+ This unbreaks (at least) https://config.privoxy.org/client-tags whose
+ buttons would previously use a http:// URL resulting in browser warnings.

<para>
- Highlight the loading actions/filter file log message

<para>
- Mention client-specific tags on the toggle page as a

+ When https inspection is enabled and Privoxy has been compiled with

- General improvements:
+ Privoxy-Regression-Test:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>
- Added support for client-specific tags which allow Privoxy
- admins to pre-define tags that are set for all requests from
- clients that previously opted in through the CGI interface.
- They are useful in multi-user setups where admins may
- want to allow users to disable certain actions and filters
- for themselves without affecting others.
- In single-user setups they are useful to allow more fine-grained
- toggling. For example to disable request blocking while still
- crunching cookies, or to disable experimental filters only.
- This is an experimental feature, the syntax and behaviour may
- change in future versions.
- Sponsored by Robert Klemme.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Dynamic filters and taggers now support a $listen-address variable
- which contains the address the request came in on.
- For external filters the variable is called $PRIVOXY_LISTEN_ADDRESS.
- Original patch contributed by pursievro.
+ Use http://127.0.0.1:8118/ as default Privoxy address
+ unless http_proxy is set through the environment.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
- Add client-header-tagger 'listen-address'.
+ Add a --privoxy-cgi-prefix option that specifies the prefix
+ to use when building URLs that are supposed to reach Privoxy's
+ CGI interface. If it's not set, http://p.p/ is used, which is
+ supposed to work with the default Privoxy configuration.
+ If Privoxy has been built with FEATURE_HTTPS_INSPECTION enabled,
+ and if https inspection is activated with the +https-inspection
+ action, this option can be used with "https://p.p/" provided the
+ system running Privoxy-Regression-Test has been configured to
+ trust the certificate used by Privoxy.
+ Note that there are currently two tests in the official
+ regression-tests.action file that are expected to fail
+ when using "https://p.p/" as privoxy-cgi-prefix.
</para>

- Include the listen-address in the log message when logging new requests.
- Patch contributed by pursievro.

+ sent by the impersonated web server.

- The show-status page now shows whether or not dates before 1970
