Comment:

 I have been talking to Karsten and Roger, who have asked if I would be
 interested in setting up continuous testing of bridge reachability, and if
 they still would be interested in my doing so, I will be proposing
 sometime this week a timeline for now through November 1st. Anyone who is
 interested on testing bridge reachability should contact me, and all
 feedback is appreciated.

 As an OONI developer, I can either keep BridgeT up-to-date with the work I
 am doing, or I can create a new bridge test specifically for the Sponsor F
 deliverable.

 The wiki looks good for now, though I will update it with progress. I
 added a link to [https://blog.torproject.org/blog/research-problem-five-
 ways-test-bridge-reachability Roger's TP blog post on the topic].

 I think that we have specified all generalized censorship detection tests,
 and though we may decide to specify further tests in the future, such
 future tests will probably be specific to less commonly used protocols, or
 constitute experiments on certain edge cases, which are beyond the scope
 of the deliverable. In other words, while it would be hella sweet to test
 for *all of the things*, we should be satisfied with (at least for this)
 with testing for 99% of the things. We're done with this one, right?
