 Currently, Tor emits log messages like:
 {{{
 No current certificate known for authority tor26; launching request.
 }}}
 at notice level under certain conditions.  This leads users to send
 [https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-relays/2011-April/000737.html
 useless bug reports that only mention the “No current certificate known”
 message] (and usually they even misquote that message).

 We should demote this message to level ‘info’.  That way, users will have
 a slightly harder time finding a non-problem to quote in their support
 requests instead of the log messages that will actually let us diagnose
 the problem.
