Comment(by rransom):

 Replying to [comment:1 karsten]:
 > Sure, we can add severities to warning messages.  Can you suggest some
 severities for the following messages?  Note that we can assign different
 severities depending on the number of authorities listed after colons:

  - "The following directory authorities did not return a consensus within
 a timeout of 60 seconds:"
  - "The following directory authorities did not return a consensus within
 a timeout of 60 seconds:"
  - "The consensuses published by the following directory authorities are
 more than 1 hour old and therefore not fresh anymore:"
 WARNING if the total number of dirauths which did not respond or did not
 return a fresh consensus is less than `(n_dirauths_total -
 n_dirauths_needed_to_sign_consensus)`; ERROR otherwise.

 Add a new message separate from the above (severity ERROR) if no authority
 returned a fresh consensus.

  - "The following directory authorities do not support the consensus
 method that the consensus uses:"
 WARNING

  - "The following directory authorities recommend other client versions
 than the consensus:"
  - "The following directory authorities recommend other server versions
 than the consensus:"
 NOTICE

  - "The following directory authorities set conflicting or invalid
 consensus parameters:"
  - "The certificates of the following directory authorities expire within
 the next three months:"
  - "The certificates of the following directory authorities expire within
 the next two months:"
 NOTICE

  - "The certificates of the following directory authorities expire within
 the next 14 days:"
 WARNING

  - "We're missing votes from the following directory authorities:"
 WARNING

  - "The following directory authorities are not reporting bandwidth
 scanner results:"
 NOTICE

  - "The consensuses downloaded from the following authorities are missing
 votes that are contained in consensuses downloaded from other
 authorities:"
  - "The consensuses downloaded from the following authorities are missing
 signatures from previously voting authorities:"
 WARNING
