This NIP defines `30303`, a parameterized replaceable event [NIP-33], referred to as Relay Statuses. Relay Statuses use tags extensively and **may** have `.content` populated with Stringified JSON.
## Purpose
To store relay meta-data and the result of subjective checks as queryable [NIP-12] events on nostr.
To store computationally expensive relay meta-data from active relays as events on nostr.
## Personas
- **Publishers** generate and push `30303` events. Events **should** be published at a regular interval. Events **may** be stale.
- **Publishers** generate and push `30303` events. Events **should** be published at a regular interval. Events **must** implement `NIP-40`.
- **Consumers** aggregate `30303` for insight on relays. Some example consumers are a social client or relay status client.
## schema
### `event.created_at`
`created_at` **should** be interpreted by consumers as `updated_at`
### `event.tags`
Relay status events have **one** (1) required tags and **nine** (9) optional tags.
Relay status events have **two** (2) required tags and **eight** (8) optional tags. Relay status events introduce **one** (1) new indexable tag (NIP-12)
The tags should be used to represent the Relay's abilities and meta at a point in time. Below the `tags schema` is expressed using pseudo-types for reasons of communication and brevity, for example `tagDescriptor[]`.

- A social client may find relays where a particular topic is popular.

- A status client shows relay statuses
- Identify macro-patterns amongst relays.
- Relays self-report statuses and/or metadata in `.content` signed by their NIP-11 `pubkey`.
- Could be used to store user checks for a relay to express personalized policies. For example, a user's pubkey was blacklisted on a relay, so they were unable to write: `..., tags: { [ ["d","wss://relay.damus.io"], ["o","true"], ["w","false"] ] }, ...`.
