- This is a version of the good idea, "Let's do routing in a way

-145 Separate "suitable as a guard" from "suitable as a new guard"
- [NEEDS-RESEARCH]
-
- Currently, the Guard flag means both "You can use this node as a
- guard if you need to pick a new guard" and "If this node is
- currently your guard, you can keep using it as a guard." This
- proposal tries to separate these two concepts, so that clients can
- stop picking a router once it is full of existing clients using it
- as a guard, but the clients currently on it won't all drop it.
-
- It's not clear whether this has anonymity issues, and it's not
- clear whether the imagined performance gains are actually
- worthwhile.
-
- This is probably superseded by proposal 236, which has a better
- approach for weighting guard node selection probabilities; we
- should probably close this ticket. (2/2015)
