Replying to [comment:23 nickm]:
> Velope on IRC suggests that we drop the "strong" sentence from alphas
_and_ stable series, on the theory that somebody will interpret its
absence to mean that this one does have the "strong" anonymity, for some
value of "strong" not currently compatible with low-latency anonymity
networks.
I don't mind losing the phrase about 'strong' anonymity. Once upon a time,
all the users of Tor were anonymity researchers. Expecting ordinary users
to realize that the word 'strong' has some hidden meaning (one that is
quite subtle even to anonymity researchers, I might add!) is foolish at
this point.
