* cc: metrics-team (added) Comment: Commenting on this ticket, because it has the metrics tag and gaba asked me to comment. I'm skeptical regarding the idea to use Protobufs for BridgeDB statistics. The idea to have automatically generated code for parsing is certainly tempting. But having to use tools to look at binary-encoded messages seems annoying. This includes other folks who want to peek at BridgeDB statistics, without relying on any of our code. I'm even more skeptical regarding Cap'n Proto, because there doesn't seem to be a Debian package that we can use as Java dependency. Adding metrics-team to cc anyway to see where this goes. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/15522#comment:5> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
