Description changed by aagbsn:

Old description:

> BridgeDB's email response mentions that it supports queries for ipv6
> bridges and bridges with specified transports, but the rate limiting
> feature prevents the responder from being used in an interactive way.
>
> We could modify the rate limiting feature to allow several requests
> before responding negatively.
>
> Alternately, the first response could include a brief set of instructions
> only, and only apply rate limiting to subsequent queries for bridges.
> However, this might be confusing, especially if not all translations are
> initially available.

New description:

 BridgeDB's email response should be rephrased.
