to confirm this:

Dir Auth Tor versions as of 2018-01-19 13:00

| 0.3.1.9           | dannenberg |
| 0.3.1.9           | longclaw   |

Dir Auth Tor versions as of 2018-01-20 12:00 

An hour after you lost the exit flag:
+-------------------+------------+
| tor_version       | nickname   |
+-------------------+------------+
| 0.3.1.9           | dannenberg |
| 0.3.1.9           | longclaw   |
| 0.3.1.9           | dizum      |
| 0.3.1.9           | Bifroest   |
| 0.3.1.9           | Faravahar  |
| 0.3.1.9           | maatuska   |

| 0.3.2.9           | gabelmoo   |
| 0.3.2.9           | tor26      |
| 0.3.3.0-alpha-dev | moria1     |

| 0.3.2.9           | bastet     | bridge dirauth
+-------------------+------------+

I'm curious:
Why did this change come into effect after only 3/9 having the change
deployed? Are only a subset of dir auths responsible for voting about the exit flag?

thanks!

the change was in 0.3.2.9:
> Minor features (directory authority):
> 
> Make the "Exit" flag assignment only depend on whether the exit
> policy allows connections to ports 80 and 443. Previously relays
> would get the Exit flag if they allowed connections to one of these
> ports and also port 6667. Resolves ticket 23637.
