Comment:

 Hi Tim. Stem is able to pull the up-to-date list of fallbacks from tor...

 https://gitweb.torproject.org/stem.git/tree/stem/descriptor/remote.py#n1008

 Obviously a hack using gitweb but hey, it works.

 On Stem's side I don't really need to be notified. As for Atlas why not
 have it simply use the above method to get them. It could cache the data
 for, say, a day. Then you wouldn't need to worry about notifying folks at
 all since Atlas would auto-update itself.

 Gonna reopen to get irl's thoughts.
