Hi all, i've been thinking some days ago that the Tor infrastructure maybe a very valuable infrastructure also for other software that would like to stay distributed without a "central directory".
In order to do so, a server-software for a distributed network, may also run a Tor Relay and write it's meta-data to cached-descriptors, de-facto relying on Tor's Directory Authority infrastructure. The question is: - How much "custom data" a Tor Relay can write in cached-descriptors, by running a Tor Relay? In particular i noticed the following entries as valuable to store custom-data without breaking other Tor relay functionalities: - router - contact Those can be setup with the following torrc configuration: * Nickname * ContactInfo How much data can be stored in those two variables? -naif _______________________________________________ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
