Changes (by teor):

 * status:  accepted => needs_revision


Comment:

 Looks good to me, but this wording might be easier to understand:
 "But they stop accepting votes posted to them."

 Some extra explanation might be useful, to cover the cases where:
 * another authority A uploads its vote to some authorities after 52:30,
 and
 * this authority fetches that vote from:
   * the same authority A, or
   * a third authority B.

 I would be happy with a spec patch, rather than a proposal, but let's send
 it to tor-dev with a quick explanation?
