| Hi all, The hidden service descriptor's "revision-counter" field is incremented every time the descriptor is updated. I wonder what the distribution of these versions will be: * a hidden service with a value of 0 (or 1) has just started up (or just rolled over to a new period) * an unstable hidden service might have an unusually high count * if enough introduction points go down or are DoSed, the hidden service will find new ones, and increment the count Should we randomise the start value and increment? How can we do this in a way that doesn't lead to exhaustion of the revision-counter?
