The stated purpose of this list is as follows:

Topics relating to this are encouraged and accepted on the list at any time.
However, this does not include:
Posts intended to troll / annoy members of the list Acting as a support, publicity or communications channel for specific hosting providers Posts regarding general tech news of the day
The tor-relays@ list is primarily a communication forum for current and prospective relay operators to obtain support, plus share stories and experiences.
Relevant discussions about specific providers are also germane, although any usage of this list for the purposes of publicity or as a communications / support channel for providers is prohibited.
