Hi Damian,
Hi all. As per ticket 4788 [1] we'll soon be removing relays that are out of date and no longer safe to run, which includes anything older than version 0.2.1.30. When I last checked this included 257 relays [2] and I've already notified the 107 of those that had contact information available.
Do you mind me asking why exactly do we keep 0.2.1x around, even the actual debian stable distri has already 0.2.35x included. That version is so old that it really creeps me out.
Shouldn't it be a general policy to keep at least just systems around with the actual stable version from the tor website ?
The metrics stats are also showing that 0.2.1x is barely existing anymore, just dump em. Why exactly is 0.2.0x still listed there ?
Just a few thoughts.
