Hello Tor, hello world!
Below you'll find the highlights of Tor metrics team work done in May 2018.
On behalf of the Tor metrics team, Karsten
Completed the draft document with graph specifications to now include all graphs on Tor Metrics.
Resolved a series of smaller inconsistencies in statistics on Tor Metrics, including: number of bytes spent on directory requests [1], bandwidth histories [2], and onion services [3].

Extended per-graph CSV files on Tor Metrics to support ad-hoc generation of CSV files without parameters to cover more data than what's displayed in a graph [4].
[4] https://bugs.torproject.org/25383
Improved explanations of metrics and flags on Relay Search [5, 6, 7]
[5] https://bugs.torproject.org/25881 [6] https://bugs.torproject.org/25854 [7] https://bugs.torproject.org/26079
Put out new releases of CollecTor and metrics-lib [8] as well as Onionoo, ExoneraTor, and metrics-web [9] to switch from Gson to Jackson as JSON library.
