Replying to [comment:8 irl]:
> Using the fixed URL http://<hostname>/tor/status-vote/next/bandwidth.z
sounds like it would be very easy to add this to CollecTor.
Thanks for the feedback!
> We have discussed in the Metrics team extending `dir-spec.txt` to allow
to fetch "recent" files as well as just next/current. In the case that
there is a wide CollecTor outage, and we miss a file, it would be good to
have those files cached (on a best-effort basis, not necessarily persisted
to disk) and available via some URL.
How is this any different to losing descriptors or consensuses?
(Please answer this question on a separate ticket.)
> I don't know if karsten already had some ideas about what these URLs
would look like, but we should perhaps consider this before implementing
changes to `dir-spec.txt`.
Please open a separate ticket for this feature. It's potentially a large
feature. And it's not essential for the initial release of this feature.
