 > This decision means that no one will ever be able to experiment with
 0.2.4.x in Shadow. It's true that Shadow uses 0.2.5.x by default these
 days, but that doesn't mean that no one ever does research with older Tor
 versions. In fact, I recently told some researchers that they need to port
 their code from 0.2.4.x to 0.2.5.x because of the bug described in this
 ticket, and haven't heard from them since...

 0.2.4.x.

 Is it okay to say "If you want 0.2.4.x to work with shadow, you need to
 apply this patch?"
