[tor-relays] PSA: 0.4.8.x is EOL now, please upgrade!



Hello!

As a reminder for those of you still running any 0.4.8.x Tor version (be it as a relay or a bridge): please upgrade! The 0.4.8.x series is end-of-life since 2 days ago and you should see a respective warning in your Tor log since yesterday.

There's currently still 1598 relays on 0.4.8.x, which means roughly 19% of the advertised bandwidth of the network (and 990 bridges).

Supported releases in general can be found on the network team wiki.[1]

As for the timeline, we plan to reach out to operators still not having upgraded by start of August, and 0.4.8.x is on track to get blocked from the network early September.[2]

To follow along the EOL process for 0.4.8.x you can track our work in Gitlab as well.[3]

Thanks,
Georg
