Hello Tor, hello world! Below you'll find the highlights of Tor metrics team work done in November 2018 as well as a few expected highlights for the current month, December 2018. On behalf of the Tor metrics team, Karsten November 2018: Evaluated a number of frameworks that could help to reduce code maintenance costs. A number of features have been added to stem to support this work. The results of the evaluation are to be published in an upcoming tech report. Split up metrics-web's legacy module into more maintainable parts [1]. [1] https://bugs.torproject.org/28116 Released Onionoo 7.0-1.19.1 [2] that updates to MaxMind's GeoLite2 format for the ASN database [3]. [2] https://dist.torproject.org/onionoo/7.0-1.19.1/ [3] https://bugs.torproject.org/28254 Prepared new graphs on relays by country for a possible metrics-team blog post for Tor's end of year campaign. Reviewed first bunch of applications for the third full-time member of the metrics team [4].

[5] https://github.com/irl/bushel Deploy changes to the Total consensus weights across bandwidth authorities graph [6] with another line for the consensus [7] and with all lines showing only relays with the Running flag in their respective consensus or vote [8].

[9] https://bugs.torproject.org/28353 Tweak OnionPerf graphs by showing all measurements at once and therefore removing the combined all-sources lines [10].
