Comment:

 Source code is:
 {{{
 git clone git clone https://www.bamsoftware.com/git/microdescs.git
 }}}
 Usage is:
 {{{
 wget https://collector.torproject.org/archive/relay-
 descriptors/microdescs/microdescs-2014-01.tar.xz
 tar xJf microdescs-2014-01.tar.xz
 ...
 wget https://collector.torproject.org/archive/relay-
 descriptors/microdescs/microdescs-2014-08.tar.xz
 tar xJf microdescs-2014-08.tar.xz
 go build
 ./microdescs --output microdescs-2014 microdescs-2014-??
 }}}
 The main program is microdescs.go. There is also a microdescs.py that is
 slower and handles just one month at a time.

 Karsten suggested that the program could be adapted to non-micro
 descriptors, so that it would be able to go farther back in time.
