Comment:

 Merged!

 >I assume we're not going to recommend LinkAuth 3 in the consensus for a
 while?

 Right.  If we made it recommended, we would be saying "We don't think you
 should run any Tor before 0.3.0.1-alpha".

 > Should we open a ticket for that?

 I think that every release or two, we should look over the list of
 recommended protocols en toto, and see if there's anything we should add
 or remove.
