Comment (by nusenu):

 Replying to [comment:7 irl]:
 > nusenu: So basically these things, plus nyx and Relay Search
 instructions, was my vision for a relay operator's portal.


 Can you elaborate what you mean by "relay operator's portal" exactly?
 different website? new .tpo subdomain?

 operators,

 +1

 with the idea of running Tor relays.

 What do you mean by "your institution"? the guide should apply to
 individuals as well, no?


 > I was also going to produce code snippets to create embeddable graphs
 for websites so you can show off your Tor relay stats on your blog or
 whatever.

 sounds great.


 > It may also be good to add ansible-relayor

 for obvious reasons I think this is a great idea ;)

 > and there was also a talk on doing the same with puppet from SHA 2017:
 https://program.sha2017.org/events/126.html. If there are Salt modules,
 that would also be good. Maybe we can make a feature matrix of these, so
 if someone is not already using a framework they can see what they offer
 (in terms of support for Tor relays specifically, not just in general).

 I might be able to find some salt stack tor relay ops but I'm not sure if
 that is public/maintained.
