#3112: Only fetch microdescriptors from 0.2.3.1-alpha and later (and authorities)
------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
Reporter: nickm | Owner: nickm
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone: Tor: 0.2.3.x-final
Component: Tor Client | Version: Tor: 0.2.3.1-alpha
Keywords: | Parent: #1748
Points: | Actualpoints:
------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
Right now in master, we fetch microdescriptors from authorities and from
any host that is running 0.2.3.0-alpha (i.e, the code from git before
the 0.2.3.1-alpha release) or later. That's because there are currently
(in the consensus I see) 11 hosts running 0.2.3.0-alpha-dev and none
running 0.2.3.1 yet. But at some point soon, we should switch the code so
that 0.2.3.1-alpha is required.
The tradeoff here is that 0.2.3.0-alpha-dev hosts are likelier to be
broken, but 0.2.3.1-alpha hosts are currently nonexistent.
