Comment (by Sebastian):

 I haven't talked with other dirauth ops other than arma or weasel (who are
 the only ones voting on BadExit currently besides gabelmoo). Weasel is
 also the only one who had an auto-naming setup (other than gabelmoo),
 which dealt with the approved-routers file. At this point, I don't know
 what to gain from talking to them.

 As for an automatic migration tool, it's super trivial and not trivial at
 the same time:
 {{{
 cp torrc bad-relays && cat approved-routers >> bad-relays
 }}}
 would totally work, but produce some warnings about unrecognized lines.
 Writing a tool to only extract the options which the new file supports is
 easy, but that would lose comments which explain why entries are there.
 Maybe I can provide a script to just comment out every non-badrelays-line
 for the migration or something, but really this should be super trivial
 for anyone to do.
