Electrum-Servers have to operate a full Bitcoin-core node.

In the light of the recent events on the Bitcoin network, and the short fork on the network, it would be great if the Servers would advertise in their console (tab) msg (where they list their donation address) the Bitcoin-core version they are operating with!  (or if they are using Bitcoin-XT...)

Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

Indeed, I second that!

You can get that information for all servers through IRC (/whois server_nick)
But it would be nice indeed to have that show in the console and/or server list dialog...

Issue submitted for you at https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum-server/issues/98

Saying that you don't trust someone because of their behavior is completely valid.

it would be great if a new column were added to the server lists (like the active servers and limit) with information about the version
