Yes, the Bridge Directory Authority changed, and Metrics only received the bridges from one of the new bridge dirauth. Unfortunately, nearly all of the existing bridges were still publishing to the old bridge dirauth. As a result, Metrics saw the number of bridges drop the approximately zero. Slowly bridges are updating and using the new bridge dirauth instead.
