 Replying to [comment:9 asn]:
 > Just discussed this with aagbsn. We decided, as a first step, to make a
 script that accepts a list of bridge descriptors, does a TCP connect scan
 on them, and spits out a filtered list of bridge descriptors containing
 only the alive ones. I'll put this in my TODO list.

 I wrote some code for the above idea in branch `obfsbridge_filtah` at
 `https://git.gitorious.org/bridgedb/bridgedb.git`.

 (Code was written fast and furiously, please don't shoot!)
