Comment (by irl):

 I like the "version_status" idea. I was thinking to add the specific
 reasons why a version is not recommended (the ones that are affected by
 specific bugs as mentioned in the tor source) but I wonder if those do not
 ever actually see the consensus anyway and so wouldn't be appearing in
 Onionoo.

 This would perhaps be something to add to Atlas when a whole bunch of
 relays are just about to disappear to explain to those users that they
 need to upgrade, but once the relays are not in Onionoo anymore the
 message would never be seen again.
