 expansion over what you asked]. Stem now has a FallbackDirectory class
 with two methods for getting this information...

 FallbackDirectory.from_remote()] reads the latest fallback_dirs.inc from
 gitweb, providing the latest fallback directories in tor's master branch.

 [https://stem.torproject.org/api/descriptor/remote.html#stem.descriptor.remote.FallbackDirectory.from_cache
 FallbackDirectory.from_cache()] provides the latest fallback directories
 Stem has cached. This is only as up-to-date as your Stem release but is
 quicker and avoids relying on gitweb.

 In #16774, we added the fallback directories to GETINFO defaults. Tor
 0.2.8.1-alpha and later should be able to tell stem the fallback
 directories this way as well.

 authorities since it uses fallback directories as well.

 FYI, tor currently tries to connect to 3 fallback directories in the first
 few seconds, then tries an authority. It downloads from the first one that
 connects, and cancels the others. See #4483.

 That's not good, can doctor please report any fallback directories that
 take a relatively long amount of time to serve a consensus (like doctor
 does for the authorities), and report any that take more than 10 seconds?

 How can I get on a list that gets this output, or will it appear on IRC in
 #tor-bots?
