commit 8a1fab7ef143d7886cfd2cd83b53249e742e6d7d Author: Karsten Loesing karsten.loesing@gmx.net Date: Mon Jan 13 16:54:10 2014 +0100
Make new subsection for routers uploading descriptors.
The rule we're trying to follow here is that sections are for roles (client, authority, cache, client) and subsections are for operations performed by the role. Routers really only perform a single operation: they periodically upload their descriptors to the authorities. That's why there should be a single subsection for this operation.
This effectively substitutes section number parts "2." with "2.1.": * 2 -> 2.1 * 2.1 -> 2.1.1 * 2.2 -> 2.1.2 * 2.2.1 -> 2.1.2.1 * 2.3 -> 2.1.3 --- dir-spec.txt | 34 ++++++++++++++++++---------------- 1 file changed, 18 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-)
