Hi James,

You are running a Tor relay, which is great:
http://rougmnvswfsmd4dq.onion/rs.html#details/0095792CC00758F245795556C957C20A3FF7E1BE

But that Tor version is obsolete, and because of old bugs, we will soon
cut relays running those versions out of the network. Please consider
upgrading!

You can find Tor packages for your distro / OS here:
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/TorRelayGuide#PlatformspecificInstructions

Ideally you will switch to keeping up with our stable releases, but if
you need a stable that is especially stable, the Tor 0.3.5 branch will
be maintained until Feb 2022:
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/teams/NetworkTeam/CoreTorReleases#Current
and you can see the lifetimes of other Tor versions on that table too.

Let us know if we can do anything to make the process easier.

And lastly, I am cc'ing the new network health mailing list (which
has public archives), to help us stay synced:
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/teams/NetworkHealthTeam

Thanks!
--Roger
