Comment:

 teor's TODO list for this task: do prep work for contacting operators of
 fallback candidates for opt-in:

 [18:04] <teor> Based on
 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/15775#comment:20
 [18:04] <teor> I think we wanted to contact operators for opt-in
 [18:05] <nickm> hm. I think you're right.  Did we have somebody offer to
 do that?
 [18:05] <teor> Does it need to be someone @torproject.org
 [18:05] <teor> For the officialness of it all?
 [18:08] <teor> I can imagine splitting it into: 1. Demangle emails; 2.
 Draft letter; 3. Send emails (BCC, of course)
 [18:08] <nickm> Yeah, #3 should be from a @tp.o address.
 [18:08] <teor> And I could do 1 & 2 at least
 [18:08] <nickm> Thanks, that would be awesome
 [18:09] <nickm> the letter should explain that it's opt-in, explain what
 we're asking for, let the know that it means that their IP address
 shouldn't be very unstable, etc
 [18:09] <teor> and the purpose of fallbacks in circumventing auth blocks
 and spreading load
 ...
 [18:20] <nickm> teor: I'm afraid that the tangle exists in my head as well
 as in the code.  I think it's fine to mention IPv6 addresses in the email
 we send out...
