I recommend, if you decide to setup a bridge (which is very useful) make
sure you include the latest pluggable transport and better make the new
server with a fresh IP address a bridge, one which was never a Tor
relay, because turning the older relay into a bridge might not be so
effective -- the IP could be blacklisted due to be known as a Tor relay
(part of the public consensus) and be impossible to reach by users
behind restrictive firewalls / censored internet.
