One thing that's neat with rsync is that it can take care of any lapses in service (on either the metrics data backend side, or on the client-which-is-downloading-the-data side) - it will just automagically mirror all the consensuses (if this is needed by the client/program/etc.) Of course, it's very easy to just make the client check if it has any lapses/holes in its (historical) view of the needed data, and to make it re-download (wget, whatever) the missing parts as needed. Just wanted to make sure there'll be no rsync-recent-metrics-data service any more (correct me if i got this wrong.) >> - Preliminary logo suggested by Jeroen and very quickly put together: >> https://people.torproject.org/~karsten/volatile/collector-logo.png -- if >> you're a graphic designer and want to contribute one hour of your time >> to design that for real, please contact me! > > Hmm, that seems to be the octopus which is part of USA-247's logo: > <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USA-247> > Quite sure this was some cheeky intended satire :) Really like the logo, btw ;) > Hopefully, somebody can contribute a better one. > > Cheers, > Philipp Kostas _______________________________________________ tor-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-dev
