[network-health] Upgrade your '456c' Tor relay?

[Nick Sheppard]

Hi Roger and all at Tor,

Upgraded now.  And installed unattended-upgrading, so it shouldn't 
happen again.

I must say that getting an email signed Roger Dingledine was a very 
effective way of getting my attention and prompting me to do something I 
should have done long ago. Keep up the good work!

All the best,

Nick Sheppard
