Comment:

 Updating my previous status report:

 Replying to [comment:5 nickm]:
 > I've made a branch `ticket31549` with PR at
 https://github.com/torproject/tor/pull/1276 .

 At the moment:
 * 2 authorities are on 0.4.0
 * 6 authorities are on 0.4.1
 * 1 authority is on 0.4.2 alpha
 * the bridge authority is on 0.3.5
 https://consensus-health.torproject.org/#authorityversions

 Here are the backport constraints:
 * release 0.4.2.2-alpha: Mid October?
 * finish test on moria1: End October?
 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/teams/NetworkTeam/CoreTorReleases#Current

 Unless we need to get this change deployed early, I think we should avoid
 backporting. And just let authorities upgrade to 0.4.2 after it is stable.
