Comment (by teor):

 Replying to [comment:3 juga]:
 > i wonder if we should add the hash to the bandwidth file name in `sbws`,
 similar to what is done with descriptors. Though then we would need to
 allow giving a directory or a file (to be compatible with older versions)
 in V3BandwidthsFile, and then adding (or resusing?) code to find the
 latest file parsing the date in it.

 We could add this feature if we want, but I think it would make the tor
 code much more complicated. If you want to add it, let's open a separate
 ticket.

 This ticket is about verifying the bandwidth file that was used in a vote.
