[tor-dev] Upcoming Onionoo version 3.1 removes "family" field from details and stops returning code 500 when serving stale data



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hello Onionoo users,

the upcoming Onionoo [0] version 3.1 will contain two minor changes
that are worth announcing in advance:

 - Details documents will not contain a "family" field anymore but
instead two fields "alleged_family" and "effective_family" which
together contain the entries in the now removed "family" field.
Clients that wish to continue using "family" field entries will need
to switch to using the union of the other two fields instead.  See
#18026 [1] for details.

 - The Onionoo server will not return status code 500 anymore if its
data gets more than 6 hours old but instead continue returning status
code 200 with the somewhat stale data in the body.  Clients that wish
to keep the current behavior will need to check the "Last-Modified"
header themselves and see if the contained timestamp is more than 6
hours old.  See #16907 [2] for details.

I'm planning to deploy version 3.1 in a week from now, by January 19,
2016.  If you need to adjust your Onionoo client to these changes,
please do that soon.

All the best,
Karsten
