degree it is unreliable?
According to arma, exitlist.tpo uses TorDNSEL, so as mentioned above it is
currently unmaintained (except for a possible upcoming contribution from a
volunteer on tor-dev at lists.tpo). Perhaps I am Doing It Wrong, but I've
never gotten any response from the server at
https://exitlist.torproject.org -- I assume it's not up. Do you see
something different? Or perhaps do you mean check.tpo?
> And is it reliable enough that, for the time being, we can use it and
not spend time hacking something else together?
Well, we could fix TorDNSEL (I know the basics of Haskell, and wouldn't at
all mind a chance to practice) or we could fix
[https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor.git/blob/HEAD:/contrib/exitlist
exitlist] (python).
