Re: : Export END_CIRC_REASON_* to controler


Any thoughts on http://fscked.org/proj/minihax/SnakesOnATor/fail_reasons http://fscked.org/proj/minihax/SnakesOnATor/fail_rates ?

Useful, not useful, anything additional that might help? Maybe node version info? 

Maybe not useful by itself, but might give you guys an idea if a node
needs some special attention/probing/stress testing, or do you already
do this w/ your own dev servers?


The idea behind SOAT is an excellent one. We are reporting things that would not show up in Tor's logs. The results are rather useful if say someone wants to maintain a high quality of service and ban certain nodes based on the fail rate @ say 4/5 or higher. Also can be used as an indication to node operators of the quality of their nodes. Perhaps you could periodically test nodes and post results with a link at http://wiki.noreply.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter. Though that might discourage bad-node operators. Which is better; a bad node or no node at all?
