 Replying to [ticket:9332 asn]:
 > It got those bridges from the reserved pool

 Do you mean the unallocated pool, or the pool reserved for the email
 distributor?

 > This feature seems to be disabled now (for some reason), but it might be
 a good idea to revive it.

 Seems like a good idea.

 Questions:

  1) What if we were to sort the bridges in whichever pool you're talking
 about, take the ones with the lowest used-bandwidth to reported-available-
 bandwidth ratio, and send those to the mailing list?

  2) What's the name of this list? Does bridges at bridges.tpo have posting
 permissions for it? Does/Should anyone else?

  3) Can anyone subscribe, or only subscribers from gmail/yahoo accounts?
