The first alpha release for the new Orbot v13 update is out, and here
are the highlights:

- - move to Tor 0.2.4.20 (releases notes here:
https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-talk/2013-December/031483.html,
and previously to .19 here:
https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-talk/2013-December/031392.html)

- - upgrade to OpenSSL 1.0.1e and the latest iptables/xtables (1.4.21)

- - a whole new way of unpacking Tor, Privoxy binaries from the APK
(basically they masquerade as jni libs) that should reduce problems
with setup and upgradeing

- - fixes for notification updates and persistence thanks to our new
contributor 'amoghbl1'

As there are many changes, we are looking for testers to help us
ensure early on that these are working broadly, hence pushing out the
alpha 1 broadly now:
