 Finally, and thanks to [https://github.com/nmathewson/mmdb-convert Nick's
 efforts on dumping MaxMind's GeoIP2 database format], we have updates for
 `src/config/geoip` and `src/config/geoip6`.  Three branches, all in my
 public repository:

  - [https://gitweb.torproject.org/karsten/tor.git/shortlog/refs/heads
 /mmdb-convert mmdb-convert] contains Nick's `mmdb-convert.py` script with
 some tweaks he already merged on GitHub and with two more tweaks that are
 only in my branch: the first tweak (749ead7) is trivial, but the second
 (436f710) is quite important for the geoip6 file.  Without that commit,
 we'd include a full copy of IPv4 assignments to the Teredo IPv6 address
 space 2001::/32.  This branch also removes our previous workaround that
 cleaned up A1 ranges from GeoIP databases using the old format.  This
 branch is supposed to be merged into master.

  - [https://gitweb.torproject.org/karsten/tor.git/shortlog/refs/heads
 /geoip-feb2014 geoip-feb2014] contains the updated geoip file with IPv4
 ranges and is supposed to be merged into maint-0.2.2.

  -
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/karsten/tor.git/shortlog/refs/heads/geoip6-feb2014
 geoip6-feb2014] contains the updated geoip6 file with IPv6 ranges and is
 supposed to be merged into maint-0.2.4 (the first maint-* branch that
 contains a geoip6 file).
