[tor-project] Arranging new default obfs4 bridges

In November 2016 there was a discussion on the tor-team list about
adding some new default obfs4 bridges (Subject: Coordinating to run high
capacity obfs4 bridges). The thread turned into a discussion about the
same entity running both bridges and exits, and didn't go anywhere.

We haven't added any new obfs4 bridges, or changed the port number of
any existing bridges, since January 2017 (Tor Browser 6.5 and 7.0a1). I
suspect that the 20 existing default bridges are still under high load
and we could stand to have some more bridges to help share it. Are we
still interested in adding new obfs4 bridges? If so, do we have any
leads on who could run them?
