New description:

 Relay Search currently uses a set of icons for relay flags that exist as
 16x16 PNGs. Over time we have added new icons but we've never considered
 consistency across projects or reusability of these icons.

 Ideally, we could have icons for the following flags that are reusable
 across projects (meanings are in dir-spec):

 * Authority
 * BadExit
 * Fast
 * Guard
 * HSDir
 * NoEdConsensus
 * Running
 * Stable
 * V2Dir
 * Valid
 * Exit

 Atlas also synthesises additional flags, as does consensus-health:

 * Not Recommended - This relay is running a Tor version that is not
 recommended by the directory authorities and may contain known issues.
 * Unmeasured - This relay has not been measured by at least 3 bandwidth
 authorities and so its consensus weight is currently capped.
 * FallbackDir - This relay is hardcoded into the tor source code as a
 fallback directory.
 * IPv6 ORPort - This relay listens for OR connections using IPv6.
 (consensus-health calls this "ReachableIPv6", because it looks at votes.)
 * IPv6 Exit - This relay allows exit connections using IPv6.
 * Unreachable ORPort - This relay has an unreachable OR address according
 to at least one directory authority.
 * T-Shirt - This relay has met the t-shirt team criteria for a t-shirt (in
 theory).

 Ideally these icons would be available for use in projects in the
 following formats:

 * Web Icon Font
 * SVG
 * 16x16, 32x32 and 64x64 PNGs

 If we could also throw in an onion, and relay and bridge icons, a
 fingerprint icon, AS icon, country icon (maybe a globe), this could be a
 really useful tool for user facing projects that has consistent UX across
 those projects.

Comment:

 Edited description:

 consensus-health uses ReachableIPv6 if a vote has an "a" line for a relay.
 This is similar to Relay Search's "IPv6 ORPort" in the consensus.
