Hello,
I think the solution to change the consensus format - section 3.3 is by far superior vs changing the ports on directory authorities or disabling old link protocols at relays side.
Changing the consensus format is the cleanest way to do it and it has smallest chances to degrade performance on working up to date clients. Might as well make add the synonym as fast as possible, when we also add the shared randomness value in the consensus document, because it'll take quite some time until we are ready to say 'let's disable all Tor versions before today'.

The last version of this draft was https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-dev/2015-September/009587.html
. This is more or less a complete rewrite, after I convinced myself
that the original ideas wouldn't work.
Part of the functionality of that old draft has been subsumed in proposal 264.]
This is now proposal 266.
