Looks like gabelmoo isn't recommending quite the set of versions it should
be recommending. That is, it's missing 0.2.0.29-rc, 0.2.0.30, 0.2.0.31.

Since moria1 and tor26 do recommend those, the majority rules, so you
will get the correct recommendations most of the time.

But I suppose if a consensus gets built that's missing moria1 or tor26,
then the majority of versioning authorities would no longer recommend
0.2.0.31.

Hopefully Karsten will fix his authority soon.

Thanks!
