[tor-dev] Introducing Snowflake (webrtc pt)

Can a snowflake bridge also be hosted by running from command line only
without an open browser?

If it could be dumbed down for the integrator up to a "sudo apt-get
install snowflage-bridge", this would open up for huge opportunities
getting more bridges.

Freedombox and related box projects could pre-install it. Tails and
Whonix users could optionally install the package and therefore easily
start contributing without asking something which is impossible for most
users for all practical purposes - setting up a port forwarding.

Cheers,
Patrick
