Those numbers were from when we wrote the project last year. nusenu, you're also using some different calculations from the grant: * you're calculating Guard IPv6 consensus weight fraction * the grant uses Guard-but-not-Exit IPv6 consensus weight fraction Since exit bandwidth is scarce in the tor network, tor clients use Guard- Exits as Exits. Therefore, to support IPv6 clients, we need to increase Guard-but-not-Exit IPv6 consensus weight. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/33045#comment:7> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
