Comment (by aagbsn):

 I'm not sure if I understand what you are suggesting.
 Currently each bandwidth voting Directory Authority must receive a
 complete (>60% of the network) set of measurements, which are obtained
 independently from the other Directory Authority operators. Each Bandwidth
 Authority operator measures the entire Tor network (in the ideal case).

 The tickets about splitting up or balancing Bandwidth Authorities have to
 do with making the separate scanner processes complete their fraction of
 the network at the same time as the other scanner processes (in the same
 Bandwidth Authority installation), so that the whole network is measured
 on approximately the same time interval. This isn't very pretty -- hope
 this makes a bit more sense now?
