## Added
* `veneur-emit` now takes a new option `-span_tags` for tags that should be applied only to spans. This allows span-specific tags that are not applied to other emitted values. Thanks [gphat](https://github.com/gphat)!
* `veneur-emit`'s `-tag` flag now applies the supplied tags to any value emitted, be it a span, metric, service check or event. Use other, mode specific flags (e.g. span_tags) to add tags only to those modes. Thanks [gphat](https://github.com/gphat)!
-* Isolated a potential resource starvation issue. Added new configuration options for `veneur-proxy` that configure it's [http.Transport](https://golang.org/pkg/net/http/#Transport):
+* Isolated a potential resource starvation issue. Added new configuration options for `veneur-proxy` to configure its [http.Transport](https://golang.org/pkg/net/http/#Transport):
* `idle_connection_timeout` for controlling how long connections may idle before timing out, corresponds to `IdleConnTimeout`
* `max_idle_conns` for controlling the maximum number of idle connections in total
* `max_idle_conns_per_host` for controlling the maximum number of idle connections per host. Not that this now defaults to `100` for safety!
