 > My branch `chutney-obfs4` now supports obfs4 as well.  PR at
 https://github.com/torproject/chutney/pull/29 .

 Looks good to me, I had a few minor comments and questions.
 I haven't run it yet.

 > There will be some followup work here to improve test-network.sh, to
 document all of this better, and to support more PTs, and to make it work
 with #30459.

 Did you want to make those changes in this ticket, or open another ticket?

 > To start this network yourself, run these:
 > {{{
 > # configure and launch everything except the bridge client
 > CHUTNEY_CONFIG_PHASE=1 ./chutney configure networks/bridges-obfs4
 > CHUTNEY_LAUNCH_PHASE=1 ./chutney start networks/bridges-obfs4
 > # wait a moment for the PT to launch
 > sleep 2
 > # configure and launch the bridge client.
 > CHUTNEY_CONFIG_PHASE=2 ./chutney configure networks/bridges-obfs4
 > CHUTNEY_LAUNCH_PHASE=2 ./chutney start networks/bridges-obfs4
 > }}}

 > As noted above, this happens in two phases because the bridge line can't
 be constructed until the bridge and its PT are running.

 I wonder if we could expose a better interface to two-phase launches. I
 guess we can do that in test-network.sh.
