pipenv for managing packages & virtual environments.Hey, thanks for going through the proposal.
So, prior to writing the proposal for the Tor-Weather, I referred to multiple sources of whichhttps://github.com/thingless/torweatherwas one. Some parts of the code can be reused, though the implementation differs by a great extent.It’s nice to know that someone else is also working on a similar project. Would definitely love to interact with nusenu and explore his vision for the project. In case the visions align, it would be great to have a co-contributor.
In terms of the notifications, we considered the issues that could be caused by frequent unreliable notifications, and that’s why we’ll be offering an option to customize each notification individually. For instance, relay operators can customize the “Losing a flag” notification to only get triggered if the relay has lost a flag for a minimum of 24hrs. Take note that this could be any number of hours. I think that should solve the issue.
Prior to sending the previous email, I did try to enable comments on the GitLab wiki, but it seemed a bit complicated to enable. Will be exploring other ways to get this done & will send a follow-up email for that.
Finally, I agree the man-pages listed that the email may be obscure & not should be. Honestly, I didn’t pay attention to that level of detail while writing the proposal, have made the corrections, and will take a look beforehand from the next time.
Thanks & Regards,

If you program something new, see if you can use the old code:
https://github.com/thingless/torweather
As far as I know, nusenu is also building something new. I don't know if he
has already done something. He'll read this and get in touch.

Please not 'losing a flag'
This confuses people and encourages even more people not to update their
relays. Or like at the moment: 2 Authority voting running relays offline &
flags come and go. Then this list is flooded with mails.

Unfortunately, comments are not allowed in:
https://gitlab.torproject.org/sarthikg/tor-weather/-/wikis/Proposal
Cons:
The email provided in the ContactInfo is obfuscated in most of the cases as
they should be according to the torrc documentation. Hence this information
cannot be relied upon.
Please replace the link to the outdated jessie manpage
use stable 'bullseye' or
https://manpages.debian.org/main/tor/torrc.5.en.html
You _MAY_ want to obscure is in the torrc not _SHOULD_ And especially in the
last few weeks, several Tor Dev's have asked:
- DO NOT obfuscate your contact information! Maintainers already burn a lot of
time trying to decipher obfuscated contact info!
Every reasonable email provider has spamassassin and amavisd-new running. We
should tell people to use the header: 'X-Spam-Level: YES'
