#25685: Tor relays publish a new descriptor but authorities drop it because they think it's only cosmetically different, and then the relay waits 18 more hours to publish, thus falling out of the consensus ----------------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: arma | Owner: (none) Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Medium | Milestone: Component: Core Tor/Tor | Version: Severity: Normal | Resolution: Keywords: 034-roadmap-proposed | Actual Points: Parent ID: | Points: Reviewer: | Sponsor: ----------------------------------+------------------------
Comment (by arma): Replying to [ticket:25685 arma]: > Think about ways to make our relay-side decisions about "is it different enough" synchronize better with our dirauth-side decisions. One way in which it will hard to make them completely synchronized (motivated by the bug report in #23638) is that if the relay restarts, when it comes back it has no memory of what it might have published in its previous run. That would argue for "make dir auths more lenient" as a primary direction to pursue. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/25685#comment:2> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
