Comment (by Sebastian):

 I am strongly discouraging this. Distributing the IP address in source
 code can get them flagged by some "security" software as C&C server
 (happened to my dirauth, caused a bunch of trouble but people knew to talk
 to me). We tell non-exits they basically don't have to worry about running
 a relay and I think that's no longer true with an opt-out process.
