[tor-bugs] #18346 [Tor]: Separate the various roles that directory authorities play, from a configuration POV
#18346: Separate the various roles that directory authorities play, from a
configuration POV

Reporter: nickm | Owner:
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: High | Milestone: Tor: 0.2.9.x-final
Component: Tor | Version:
Severity: Normal | Keywords: prop257 dirauth
Actual Points: | Parent ID:
Points: small/medium | Sponsor: SponsorU

It would be handy if the following roles were split up:
1) The list of IP:Orport:Identity to which every relay should upload
every descriptor.
2) The list of IP:Orport:Identity from which caches should expect to
find canonical consensuses and descriptors.
3) The list of IP:Orport:Identity from which non-caches should expect to
bootstrap consensuses and descriptors. (See 'fallbackdir')
4) The list of keys that must sign a vote or a consensus.
5) The list of IP:Orport:Identity that authorities use when sending and
receiving votes.
Splitting roles up in this way would better prepare us for an
implementation of prop#257 down the road.
