Comment(by karsten):

 Replying to [comment:1 arma]:
 > We should become able to send them again, presumably from the new
 bridgedb host. (I'm not sure how useful it would be to actually send them
 though, since China needs obfsproxy bridges rather than normal ones, and
 our obfsproxy bridges don't publish that capability to the bridge
 authority yet. But once we fix that, we should make sure we're ready for
 it here.)

 During the #tor-dev meeting on April 12 we said that adding obfsproxy
 addresses to BridgeDB is a separate task than what this deliverable is
 about.  Once we send the emails again, whether or not they include
 obfsproxy bridges, BridgeDB should be able to include stability and
 reachability information for bridges.

 And now that I write this, I realize that stability information will
 probably be the same for all transports of a bridge, but reachability
 information will not.  We'll need reachability information for every
 transport of a bridge, not just for a bridge in general.
