Hi,
tor-roster has a badge for in-family geo diversity:
"Geo Diversity in Relays (Number of countries / Number of relays >= 0.5)"
Do you consider in-family diversity so important - even though all of them are run by a single entity anyway?
I'd consider the tor network's overall diversity far more important than in-family diversity because clients won't use more than one relay of a given family anyway.
How about having a badge for tor network wide diversity? Something like:
More than 4/5 of the family's CW is located in countries with a cw lower than 2%* (currently means non-top 7 country) and ASes lower than 1.5%* (currently means non-top 8 AS)?
That implies some degree of in-family diversity since a big family would have to spread across multiple countries/ASes.
potential problem: "growing" ASes/countries might cross the threshold in that case you would either have to accept the fact that someone else can take away that badge by adding relays to your AS/CC ;) or consider the diversity at relay signup time (less fun)
*) these are arbitrary thresholds
"No Self-Referencing Relays" I'm not sure what exactly you mean by that but I assume it is a MyFamily config where a relay includes his own fingerprint. Why does that hurt? The unnecessary descriptor space/bw?
thanks
