- o Major features:
- - Add a new FallbackDir option to use when we can't use a directory
- from the consensus (either because we lack a consensus, or because
- they're all down). Currently, all authorities are fallbacks by
- default, and there are no other default fallbacks, but that will
- change. This option will allow us to give clients a longer list
- of servers to try to get a consensus from when first connecting to
- the Tor network, and thereby reduce load on the directory
- authorities. Implements proposal 206, "Preconfigured directory
- sources for bootstrapping". Closes bug 572.
- o Removed features:
- - Drop the old FallbackNetworkstatus option: we never got it working
- well enough to use it. Closes bug 572.
