Comment(by atagar):

 {{{
 09:15 < atagar> I'm probably missing something obvious but the 'GETINFO
 ns/*' options are documented as providing v2 style directory data.
 However, it certainly looks to provide v3
                 router status entries instead (note the 'p' and 'w'
 lines): http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=rrhXZ4ZF
 09:16 < atagar> Not that I'm complaining - v2 entries aren't nearly as
 useful as their v3 counterparts but I am a little puzzled. :)
 09:17 < atagar> btw, this might mean that https://trac.torproject.org/7953
 can be 'fixed' with a simple spec change
 09:17 < atagar> though it would be nice if it said what tor versions
 provide what kind of network status data
 }}}
