binds X to some other Y'.) A router is called 'Named' if the router
believes the given name should be bound to the given key.
+ Two strategies exist on the current network for deciding on
+ values for the Named flag. In the original version, server
+ operators were asked to send nickname-identity pairs to a
+ mailing list of Naming directory authorities operators. The
+ operators were then supposed to add the pairs to their
+ mapping files; in practice, they didn't get to this often.
+
+ Newer Naming authorities run a script that registers routers
+ in their mapping files once the routers have been online at
+ least two weeks, no other router has that nickname, and no
+ other router has wanted the nickname for a month. If a router
+ has not been online for six months, the router is removed.
+
"Unnamed" -- Directory authorities that support naming should vote for a
router to be 'Unnamed' if its given nickname is mapped to a different
identity.
