Comment (by teor):

 I want to make comments on this file, and I'd usually do that through a
 pull request.
 Where is it going to live?
 I think I'll start by dumping it in doc/HACKING, and we can move it to its
 final location later,

 I also have a broader question:

 Are identifiers in the tor specifications in scope?
 Juga and I spent a lot of time trying to name fields for the bandwidth
 file.
 A set of standard abbreviations would have been very useful.
