 It would have no impact whatsoever on those proposals, since the AS-aware
 path selection does not depend on any particular guard rotation schedule.
 It will simply take into account what AS the guards are in when it selects
 the other two relays. This means it's also future-proofed for any changes
 to guard rotation behavior that happens down the road.

 As someone who has never written a proposal for Tor, is there anything I
 can do to speed up the process? I have extensive experience in information
 security, but do not know the ins and outs of the Tor protocol itself or
 the proposal process, so I would not feel comfortable writing the proposal
 without knowing more about the general requirements.
