Comment (by teor):

 Alternately, weasel suggests mailing tor-relays:
 {{{
 [18:38] <weasel> I think a mail to tor-relays and a note in the next tor
 weekly news that links to the mail ought to suffice.
 [18:38] <weasel> basically saying "we intent to list all these relays and
 all future ones that qualify as fallback" yadada.
 [18:39] <weasel> if we wanted to be extra cautious, we could try finding a
 small number, say 10 or so, and try with those as a first step.
 [18:39] <weasel> that could be opt-in without the mails to public places
 [18:39] <weasel> and also it'd scale saner.
 }}}

 Updated script in branch `feature15775-fallback-update`:
 * sort by bandwidth weight (previous sort was by key)
 * take the TOP_N_BY_WEIGHT relays, currently set to 512 as a sanity check
