The MyFamily torrc setting is just a single line listing all your relay fingerprints. This setting tells tor clients "these are my relays: ... don't use more than one of my relays in any single circuit". This is particularly relevant if the entry _and_ exit probability of your group of relays is > 0% and your relays are spread across more than a single /16 network. Atlas.torproject.org can help you verify that the configuration is set up correctly (effective family has to list all your relays). If you expect to add/remove relays or adjust exit policies in the future on a more or less regular basis, I would suggest you use a configuration management like ansible or puppet to manage your relays - for your own convenience. I'm maintaining an ansible role to help tor relay operators manage MyFamily automatically - no more manual hassle (in addition to configure them using security features like 'OfflineMasterKey'). https://github.com/nusenu/ansible-relayor If you have any further questions - just let us know. regarding your slack group: I prefer to discuss this on the tor-relays mailing list instead of creating yet another place to discuss these topics.
