commit 1755a4122b6ee80624f0f5b4333dba0343e4fcc7
Author: Nick Mathewson <nickm at torproject.org>
Date:   Wed Sep 9 12:26:39 2015 -0400

    Turn off proposals 131 and 211.
    
    131 is obsolete for being incredibly old, and not being how we'd actually
    like torcheck to work any more.  It comes from a pre-tbb world.
    
    211 is on reserve since nobody's asked for it in a while, and sensible
    folk are maintaining torcheck now.
