Great, so we're using similar calculations. > > * the grant uses Guard-but-not-Exit IPv6 consensus weight fraction > > If the grant is about supporting Tor clients only (which I hope it is not since I thought client-to-guard supports IPv6 already) than it seems odd > to use cw fraction instead of "what fraction of guard capacity is reachable via IPv6?" metrics. The grant is about increasing the number of relays on IPv6, so that it's safer for clients to use IPv6: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/sponsors/Sponsor55 > [1] https://metrics.torproject.org/onionoo.html#details_relay_guard_probability -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/33045#comment:9> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
