 [http://globe.rndm.de/ Globe] is "a Tor relay and bridge explorer"
 developed by rndm on [https://github.com/makepanic/globe GitHub].  Globe
 is inspired by [https://atlas.torproject.org/ Atlas], but has more
 features (like searching for bridges) and is more actively maintained.  We
 already list Globe in our
 [https://www.torproject.org/getinvolved/volunteer.html.en#Projects project
 table].

 I suggest we host a copy of Globe on a Tor Project machine to make Globe
 available as https://globe.torproject.org/.  The main reason is that
 people will trust Globe more if we host it.  The sekrit other reason is to
 integrate rndm more closely into the Tor community, but shhh.

 The only requirement is an Apache that serves a directory containing
 static files.  The latest Globe release can be downloaded at
 https://github.com/makepanic/globe/releases.  Updating should be as easy
 as extracting a zip file and pointing document root to a new path.  phw
 and I volunteer as service maintainers.  Cc'ing atagar, because I hear
 he's excited about Globe, too.
