 245  Deprecating and removing the TAP circuit extension protocol [DRAFT]
+
+     Explains a migration path for finally removing all support for the

 248  Remove all RSA identity keys [DRAFT]

+     Explains a migration path for removing RSA1024 identity keys in the

 249  Allow CREATE cells with >505 bytes of handshake data [DRAFT]
+
+     Explains how to split CREATE cells (and other stuff) across

 250  Random Number Generation During Tor Voting [DRAFT]

 251  Padding for netflow record resolution reduction [DRAFT]

+     Proposes a periodic "keepalive-like" packet be sent over quiet Tor

 253  Out of Band Circuit HMACs [DRAFT]
 
+     Allows participating nodes to authenticate the whole contents of a
