 We are currently distributing 23 obfs3 bridges. That's not too shabby.
 Seems like we are approaching the multiple pluggable transport deployment
 stage.

 Unfortunately, because of the lack of user education, I bet that no users
 know that they can use obfs3 bridges with the latest obfsbundles.
 Furthermore, the bridges.tpo interface is not very helpful either. It just
 says ''Looking for obfsproxy bridges?'' and gives users obfs2 bridges. We
 should be more friendly towards multiple transports these days.
