Comment (by arma): Replying to [comment:14 mikeperry]: > We need the guardfraction feature (or something like it) less since we have backed off from infinite guard lifetimes, but I don't think the need is now zero. I think this is right. But when considering the guardfraction feature, we should think not just about the code on the Tor side, but also about what feels to the dir auths like yet another pile of abandonware crap that they're going to be asked to run and maintain forever. So, if we're thinking about the feature's future, let's not underweight the importance of the external portion of the tool too. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/24456#comment:15> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
