Maybe this question is more appropriate for tor-dev mailing list? How to submit a certain IP:Port to BridgeDB without using Tor?

So, if a third party would like independently to: - develop a TCP forwarder (very simple code) - submit to the BridgeDB - decide to which host to connect back which would be the step do be done from technical standpoint of view? Because that way it would be possible for a lot of third party to develop very lightweight "Tor TCP Proxy" that doesn't have inside other than the basic logic to do the TCP Proxy. Is the availability for third party software/script for that goals considered?
