Here's a first set of guidelines for how to pick new directory
|
||||
authorities.
|
||||
|
||||
(These won't be formal criteria -- we need to keep this loose since
|
||||
we're making it up as we go.)
|
||||
|
||||
o Stability:
|
||||
- Must be a low-downtime Tor server (computer as well as network).
|
||||
- Must have a static IP.
|
||||
- Must have been a stable Tor server for at least 3 months.
|
||||
- Must intend to stick around for the next 12 months or more.
|
||||
- Must not hibernate.
|
||||
|
||||
o Performance:
|
||||
- Must have sufficient bandwidth: at least 300 kB/s symmetric,
|
||||
though in practice the inbound traffic can be considerably less.
|
||||
|
||||
o Availability:
|
||||
- Must be available to upgrade within a few days in most cases.
|
||||
(While we're still developing Tor, we periodically find bugs that
|
||||
impact the whole network and require dirserver upgrades.)
|
||||
|
||||
o Integrity:
|
||||
- Must promise not to censor or attack the network and users.
|
||||
- Should be run by somebody that Tor (i.e. Roger) knows.
|
||||
- Should be widely regarded as fair/trustworthy, or at least
|
||||
known, by many people.
|
||||
- If somebody asks you to backdoor or change your server, legally or
|
||||
otherwise, you will fight it to the extent of your abilities. If
|
||||
you fail to fight it, you must shut down the Tor server and notify
|
||||
us that you have.
|
||||
- Dirservers (and operators) in a variety of jurisdictions are best.
