Comment (by karsten):

 Replying to [comment:5 phw]:
 >  1. I renamed 'Status' to 'Current Status' to make it clear that this is
 the information to trust.

 Sounds good.

 >  1. I renamed 'Uptime' to 'Last Restarted'. It certainly makes more
 sense than 'Uptime'. It might be better to display it unconditionally
 because people could be interested in it even though the relay is offline.

 Hmm.  To me, 'last restarted' means the date and time when the relay or
 bridge has last been restarted, not the time that has elapsed since then.

 Here's an alternative: if a relay or bridge is not running, display its
 'Downtime' by subtracting `last_seen` from the current system time.  That
 information might be more interesting to users than the previous uptime
 anyway.

 >  1. If the relay is currently offline, 'Last Known Properties' is shown
 instead of 'Properties'. In that case an additional field, 'Last Seen', is
 shown.

 Makes sense.

 Also, here's a minor remark on Git commit messages: http://git-
