I was curious about how many relays and clients still want to speak
version 1 and 2.  I patched one of my guard relays to keep statistics
about the content of VERSIONS cells.  Here's the result after almost
three days.  The numbers include relays as well as clients.

  Versions |  Amount total | Amount w/o duplicate hosts
  ---------+---------------+---------------------------
   1 and 2 |  34,648  (9%) | 21,552 (23%)
         3 |  73,202 (18%) | 54,307 (59%)
   3 and 4 | 291,807 (73%) | 16,235 (18%)
         4 |       3  (0%) |      2  (0%)

Cheers,
Philipp
