Comment (by dgoulet):

 Replying to [comment:8 atagar]:
 > To be clear those are the only two values that looks like they should be
 in the consensus. Unless I'm missing something the rest are exclusive to
 votes. Seems also that the previous value isn't always present...

 Correct. Consensus _only_ have the `shared-rand-current-value` and
 `shared-rand-previous-value`. Vote have the commit line(s) and the shared
 values. Note that they can be absent from a vote or a consensus. Also, the
 vote has a `shared-rand-participate` field that indicate if the authority
 will participate in the computation of the share value. If that line is
 absent, ALL commit/srv should be ignored.
