I fail to see how that relates to my earlier message. When a new Tor
production version is released, it is by definition recommended, or it
would not be a production release in the first place. If later it turns
out that a particular Tor version is buggy, in can be manually removed
from the list of recommended versions.

I’m not sure if “production version/release” is a term formally defined for Tor releases, but 0.3.0.1 was at least not a “stable” release: the announcement of Tor 0.3.0.6 [1] declares it “the first stable release of the Tor 0.3.0 series”. And indeed, on the consensus health page [2], I can see that several directory authorities don’t recommend any Tor versions between 0.2.9.* and 0.3.0.7 (0.3.0.6 had a “medium-severity security bug” [3], I assume that’s why it’s not recommended either).

Cheers,
Lucas
