5 years ago this means breaking changes everywhere:
- core https://github.com/katzenpost/core/pull/55
- server https://github.com/katzenpost/server/pull/85
- authority https://github.com/katzenpost/authority/pull/40
- client https://github.com/katzenpost/client/pull/37
notice that the PKI doc now have SendRatePerMinute and SendBurst for parameterizing the rate limiting of clients connections on Providers. That is to say, the original rate limiting system that Yawning wrote is preserved, however we elect here to explicitly configure it instead of using SendShift which had a dual purpose of tweaking the send poisson output in clients.
Through an ongoing discussion with Claudia and Ania we've come to the following conclusions:
get rid of any parameter containing the string "shift" in it's name or description. This fucks up the exponential distribution.
