First I began with a set of candidates:
The client's _required_ list starts with all the protocols
supported by every release in 0.2.9-stable through current
master.
The client's _required_ list starts with all the protocols
supported by every release in 0.3.5-stable through current
master.
Everybody's _recommended_ list starts with all the protocols
supported by every release in 0.3.5-stable through current master.
Then I removed the protocol versions that we do not actually want to
require or recommend:
DirCache=1 (deprecated)
HSDir=1, HSIntro=1-3, HSRend=1 (deprecated)
(All HS* protocol requirements for clients)
Link=1-3 (deprecated)
LinkAuth=1 (obsolete)
Relay=1 (obsolete)
Cons=1 is the old format of consensuses, without ed25519 keys. It
is no longer required or recommended.
Cons=2 is the new format of consensuses, with ed25519 keys. It
is now required.
(Similarly for Desc=1,2 and Microdesc=1,2)
No supported client or relay versions should be affected by this
change, since these versions are supported by clients and relays
running 0.2.9 and later. It will only take effect once enough
authorities vote for it.
Closes ticket 40162.
