- Updated translations: Basque, Hungarian, Traditional Chinese
* Fri Oct 12 2012 Russell Golden <niveusluna at niveusluna.org> - 3.0.0-2
- Replace "firefox" in EPEL builds with "firefox >= 3.5" for EL
users who think updates are for sissies and/or voiding support
contracts with proprietary vendors. They can't use this if their
Firefox install is older than 3.5 anyway, so what's the harm?

- Since version 2.x:
- 1,455 new active rulesets
- UI improvements:
-- right-click to view ruleset source in the config window
-- translate some untranslated menus
-- better icons in a few places (breaking/redirecting rules,
context button)
- Numerous improvements to the SSL Observatory internals, including cached
submissions on hostile networks, better Tor and Convergence integration,
and a new setting to control self-signed cert submission
- New translations: Basque, Czech, Danish, French, Greek, Hungarian,
Italian, Korean, Malaysian, Polish, Slovak, Turkish,
Traditional Chinese
- Relative to 3.0development.8:
- Only promote the Decentralized SSL Observatory to 5% of non-Tor users
- Update the SSL Observatory whitelist of common cert chains
- Fixes, mostly in the CDN/media playback department:
Akamai/CNN, GO.com/ABC, AWS/Amazon Zeitgeist MP3 player,
AWS/Spiegel.tv, Technology Review, Cloudfront/Tunein,
Akamai/Discovery Channel, Beyond Security, OCaml, Gentoo,
Nokia, Widgetbox.com, Squarespace

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ChangeLog:
* Sun Oct 14 2012 Manuel "lonely wolf" Wolfshant <wolfy at fedoraproject.org> - 2.61-19
