Replying to [comment:14 karsten]:
Hmm, mandatory auto-update mechanism (take or die) from Tor consensus is
required.
> 421 Tor 0.2.7.6 on Linux
Maybe, Tor should warn/info when the repository is different from the
recommended.
> 124 Tor 0.2.8.6 on Linux
Suspiciously. But people that check manually for a new version can be
aware since Aug 24 only...
> 44 Tor 0.2.8.2-alpha on Linux
What's the reason to allow alphas to be bridges? Separate "alpha bridges"
category for clients who like experiments is preferable.
> 94 Tor 0.2.4.23 on Windows 7
There are no reasons not to update on Windows except that Expert Bundle
lacks auto-updater. But it has 0.2.8.6 version now, so your data shows
that all Windows bridges, except those 0.2.4.x highly outdated, are
maintained by up-to-date rebuilding from source. Is it plausible?
