Hi Arturo,

I gave 5 to the monthly reports because I think it would be great to explain to
a broad audience how censorship is working in a country.

Since I believe that reports are so important, I have framed my answers mostly
in terms of them, hence I gave 4:

- to OONI tests for circumvention tools, because I think people would be very
interested to read about that in the reports;

- to reaching out to communities and to running measurements in 50 countries,
because doing that is functional to prepare the reports;

- to the Raspberry PIs image and to the mobile Apps because they could be two
ways to lower the barrier to installing OONI and running tests, which is again
functional to all the above.

I gave 3 to all the rest, except the international conference to which I gave 2,
because, well, "I would give priority to other stuff" :-).

Thanks,

Simone
