Congratulations! That's great news!

My vague memory is that you included very small metrics tasks in this
proposal, because you had to reduce the budget. I believe that we picked
something that doesn't require changes to our data pipeline. Instead,
you're adding a few new lines to tor descriptors, and we write custom
analysis code to plot some numbers, once or twice in the project time frame.

We're going to include this in the roadmap as a smaller task. But even
if it weren't in the roadmap, we'd likely be able to squeeze it in.

Congratulations again for getting this grant money!

All the best,
Karsten
