In 0.2.8, relays with enough bandwidth automatically become directory mirrors, serving directory documents over their ORPort(s). So we could change the Dir Addresses as follows: Dir Addresses IP addresses and TCP port numbers to which Tor clients can connect to retrieve directory information. These will only be shown if the relay is configured to serve this information using Dir Addresses, and this helps reduce the load on directory authorities. (All bridges, and some relays, also serve directory documents over their OR Addresses.) > > You can find a live example of this patch at: > > https://irl.github.io/atlas/#/ > > and a full list of changes are detailed in #6787. > > Please let me know if you can see any reason to not merge this, or if > you have any suggestions for small changes before merging. > > Thanks, > Iain. > > [1]: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/5430 > [2]: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/6787 > _______________________________________________ > tor-dev mailing list > tor-dev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-dev Tim Wilson-Brown (teor) teor2345 at gmail dot com PGP 968F094B ricochet:ekmygaiu4rzgsk6n
