Good that you bring this up, Scott! Most of the proposal you refer to is
implemented, but it takes a while for the code to make it into trunk.
This one was now assigned a higher priority. :)

The new default value for storing and serving v2 hidden service
descriptors is now implemented in trunk and will be part of 0.2.1.6-alpha.

This does not, however, mean that it will be backported to 0.2.0.x
anytime soon (or at all). People who run a 0.2.0.x relay still need to
set the option manually as described by Scott:
