 11:10:15 A<+atagar> tjr: You'll find that depictor will have timeouts too
 when you update Stem. Stem now drops the '.z' suffix and replaces it with
 an Accept-Encoding header...

 11:10:38 A<+atagar> To cut down on noise DocTor no longer downloads from
 tor26.
 11:11:00 T<+tjr> Hm... I don't think that's going to be an option for
 me...
 11:11:26 A<+atagar> Why?
 11:11:56 A<+atagar> I did a similar thing for turtles back in the day.
 Certainly understandable though if it's a no-go. :)
 11:12:04 A<+atagar> I suppose we might be able to hack around it.
 11:12:36 T<+tjr> Well, I suppose I could get the vote from another
 DirAuth.  But not downloading would mean they would fall off (or have bad
 data) for the download times table
 11:12:46 T<+tjr> Not that that table is terribly accurate today but....
 11:13:18 A<+atagar> Gotcha. For DocTor the hack I did was to simply stop
 treating tor26 as a dirauth.
 11:13:44 A<+atagar> Ah, I've got an idea.
 11:14:17 A<+atagar> The DescriptorDownloader should return you a query
 object. You can overwrite the resource attribute to add back the '.z'
 before making the request.
 11:14:45 A<+atagar> Since the stripping happens in the constructor...
 11:14:46 A<+atagar>
 https://gitweb.torproject.org/stem.git/tree/stem/descriptor/remote.py#n370
 11:16:01 A<+atagar> Note that you'll want to include 'start = False' in
 your call so the request isn't made until you change the resource.
