Comment (by karsten):

 Replying to [comment:3 atagar]:
 > Out of curiosity does this mean bridges will need to fetch server
 descriptors rather than microdescriptors?

 Bridges never fetched microdescriptors but always server descriptors.  The
 bridge authority does not even generate microdescriptors for bridges.
 It's a relay-only thing.

 Also noting down here that atagar and I agree that `@type bridge-server-
 descriptor` in sanitized bridge server descriptors should be
 [https://collector.torproject.org/formats.html#bridge-descriptors raised
 from 1.0 to 1.1] once these descriptors include sanitized transport lines.
