Re: [tor-relays] TorWeather replacement features



nusenu:
Hi,

I'm currently working on a TorWeather replacement (mainly using a byproduct of another project) that should be helpful for relay operators to get notifications about their relay downtimes
and other issues.
I believe such a service will contribute to a more healthy tor network
and better informed operators leading to less relays running on
old vulnerable and end-of-life tor versions.

Right. That's a good idea. We have been proposing a Tor Weather replacement for a number of times now as a Google Summer of Code project but alas it did not get picked up and we don't have the time to rewrite it ourselves.

However, I'd suggest that we as the Tor Project would host such a Tor Weather instance powered by your code as I think many more relay operators would trust such a service if it were hosted by us and thus the effect on the health of the network would be vastly superior.

There is a ticket open in our bug tracker[1] you filed a while back where we could coordinate.

Let us know what you think, but the overall idea sounds exciting.

Georg
