    the console on Windows. (#1232)
  - Perform ~ expansion in the --exclude-from filename argument to
    'tahoe backup'. (#1241)
- - The CLI now ignores the HTTP_PROXY environment variable and
-   connects directly to the WAPI instead of going through an HTTP
-   proxy, thus avoiding giving caps to the HTTP proxy (and also
-   avoiding failures in the case that the HTTP proxy is failing or
-   requires authentication). (#1253)
- - The CLI now correctly reports failure in the case that 'tahoe mv' fails to
-   unlink the file from its old location. (#1255)
+ - The CLI's 'tahoe mv' and 'tahoe ln' commands previously would try
+   to use an HTTP proxy if the HTTP_PROXY environment variable was set.
+   These now always connect directly to the WAPI, thus avoiding giving
+   caps to the HTTP proxy (and also avoiding failures in the case that

 ** Packaging
 
  - Use a newer version of a dependency if needed, even if an older
    version is installed. This would previously cause a VersionConflict
    error. (#1190)
- - Use a precompiled binary of a dependency if one with a sufficiently high
-   version number is available, instead of attempting to compile the dependency
-   from source, even if the source version has a higher version number . (#1233)
+ - Use a precompiled binary of a dependency if one with a sufficiently
+   high version number is available, instead of attempting to compile
+   the dependency from source, even if the source version has a higher

 ** Documentation
 
- - All .txt documents (except historical docs) have been converted to
+ - All current documentation in .txt format has been converted to
    .rst format. (#1225)
  - Added docs/backdoors.rst declaring that we won't add backdoors to
    Tahoe-LAFS, or add anything to facilitate government access to data.
