Comment:

 Thanks teor and twim! This required from me a bit more text and trac is
 the worst so I did a Gitlab merge request for code review here. See my
 comments there! Let's make the discussion happened there now which will
 make our life so much easier :).

 @twim, yeah you'll need a Gitlab account, sorry about that but it's worth
 it. If you had more commit, I can add them to that branch so we don't lose
 our discussion.

 https://gitlab.com/dgoulet/tor/merge_requests/12

 Removing `proposal-needed?` as we don't define upload delays in the
 specification only time period HOWEVER I found this in rend-spec.txt:
 {{{
    When uploading descriptors, the hidden service needs to make sure that
    descriptors for different clients are not uploaded at the same time
 (cf.
    Section 1.1) which is also a limiting factor for the number of clients.
 }}}

 We should make sure we actually follow this as this might be important?

 Finally, to answer your question twim:
 > btw, can we actually get this in 029?

 Nope, no chance sorry, 029 is freezed and 030 alpha is coming around the
 corner.
