Comment (by atagar):
Bit more context: the StaleDesc flag was added in ticket #26770. Here's
its changelog entry...
{{{
% cat changes/ticket26770
o Minor features (directory authority, relay):
- Authorities now vote on a "StaleDesc" flag to indicate that a
relay's
descriptor is so old that the relay should upload again soon.
Relays
understand this flag, and treat it as a signal to upload a new
descriptor. This flag will eventually let us remove the 'published'
date from routerstatus entries, and save a great deal of space in
our
consensus diffs. Closes ticket 26770; implements proposal 293.
