[tor-relays] MyFamily and ContactInfo fields are required for operators running multiple tor instances



Hi,

I'd like to highlight that today the following 
two sentences requiring ContactInfo and MyFamily for operators running multiple relays
got added to the tor manual page [1]:

>     ContactInfo **must** be set to a working address if you run more than one
>     relay or bridge.  (Really, everybody running a relay or bridge should set
>     it.)
> 
> 
>     MyFamily **must** be set correctly if you run more than one relay or
>     bridge. (That is, every relay should list all the others as described
>     above.)

The main motivation for this change have been suspicious tor relays that bad-relays@ ML
decided to remove but had no way direct way to contact and so was forced
to make hard decisions.

With these clear statements bad-relays@ ML group can handle problematic cases 
better.

regards,
nusenu
