 (Weight is based on the observed bandwidth).

 {{{
 == Bridge - Series ==
 <= 0.2.8 series: 367 [w: 0.78%]
 0.3.0x - 0.3.4.x series: 786 [w: 11.21%]
 }}}

 We have a total of 6813 bridges currently publishing descriptors so we are
 talking about removing ~1153 of them (~17%).

 > 2. Decide if we want this change to apply to the bridge authority at the
 same time as the directory authorities

 I believe so yes.

 > 3. Check that the default bridges are on 0.3.5 or later

 Only one running bridge is <= 0.3.5.7 from this list:

 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/TorBrowser/DefaultBridges

 I've contacted the operator:

 Orbot is about to get its Bridge list synced up with the ones in Tor
