Re: [tor-relays] Proper bandwidth units [was: Exit nodes on Gandi]
Why not just accept KB/sec, KiB/sec, GB/mo, GiB/mo in the config file? Because KB/sec would be rejected as not conforming to either SI or IEC prefix specs. Therefore the above proposed 'AND' would fail ;) ___ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
