[tor-dev] Two questions about dir-spec.txt
Hi Nick,
as the subject says, two quick questions about dir-spec.txt:
1. The "s" lines of network status entries are specified as:
"s" SP Flags NL
Now, when a relay has no flags at all, which can happen in a vote or
could happen in older consensus methods, that relay would have an "s"
line just consisting of "s", not "s ".
I think it makes sense to omit the SP, but should this be specified? If
so, how?
There are other lines where it's not specified whether a trailing SP is
permitted or not. But I think I only encountered "s" lines without any
list elements so far.
(I ran into problems here a while ago, when I looked for lines starting
with "s " to overwrite an sLine string variable. But there was no "s "
line for some relays, so the program used the "s " line from the
previous relay. Went unnoticed. Ugh.)
2. The "m" lines in votes are not in dir-spec.txt. I haven't looked at
proposal 158 yet. Is that proposal up-to-date?
Thanks,
Karsten
