Comment (by teor):

 In the meantime, where can we (more clearly) document the difference
 between policy_summarize() and Exit? It's obviously causing some
 confusion.

 What do you think of this draft?
 * policy_summarize() lists exit ports that are allowed to the whole
 internet; or exit ports that are blocked to one or more internet addresses
 (whichever list is shorter).
 * Exit is applied to routers that allow exits to at least two of the HTTP,
 HTTPS, and IRC ports; and allow exits to at least 1/256 of the IPv4
 internet.

 To check:
 * does policy_summarize() work the same for IPv4 and IPv6?
 * how does "Exit" work for IPv6?

 Next Steps:
 * Put my white hat on and determine a set of pathological cases
 * Create test cases for these cases (?)
 * Check the current consensus for cases with: Exit & Reject 1-65535; No
 Exit & Accept 1-65535 (?)
