New description:

 We plan to make sanitized versions of the bridge pool assignments
 available for analysis.  We already discussed in #2372 how to learn about
 bridge pool assignments from BridgeDB.  As soon as we have these
 assignment files available on a regular basis, we'll have to

  - extend metrics-db to sanitize the original files in the same way as we
 sanitize bridge descriptors,
  - write a parser to convert old BridgeDB log files to the new sanitized
 bridge assignment file format, and
  - put regularly updated tarballs of these files on metrics.tp.o.

 Once #2372 is done, we should open new tickets for these tasks, or just
 work on them as part of this ticket.
