#9321 changes not included in tor-0.2.6.3-alpha changelog
Hello Nick, I noticed that the 0.2.6.3 changelog does not contain the guardfraction blurb of #9321. I think this happened in c2312f4f5fbc37581180f53fb67edb70f3360104 where the bug9321 file was deleted but its contents were not added to the changelog. The text that is missing is: o Major features: - Introduce the Guardfraction feature which improves the load balancing of path selection towards guard nodes. Specifically, it aims to reduce the traffic gap that guard nodes experience when they first get the Guard flag. This is a required step if we want to increase the guard lifetime to 9 months or greater. Resolves ticket 9321. Maybe we should add it now even though the release has happened. Thanks!
