New description:
Microdescriptors are a feature designed to greatly reduce the amount of
data that needs to be transmitted to implement the Tor directory protocol.
See
[https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor.git/blob_plain/HEAD:/doc/spec/proposals/158-microdescriptors.txt
proposal 158 "Microdescriptors"] and
[https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor.git/blob_plain/HEAD:/doc/spec/proposals/162
-consensus-flavors.txt proposal 162 "Publish the consensus in multiple
flavors"] for design details.
There's an initial implementation at the server level (authorities
generate microdescriptors and the appropriately flavored consensus).
We need to implement the remaining server and client components for May 1
2011.
