 Replying to [comment:9 nusenu]:
 > Can you elaborate what you mean by "relay operator's portal" exactly?
 different website? new .tpo subdomain?

 Yes, a new subdomain.

 > What do you mean by "your institution"? the guide should apply to
 individuals as well, no?

 One thing that always stuck with me from the Gentoo documentation was it
 was kind of "choose your own adventure". The documentation should
 definitely apply to everyone, but different people have different needs.

 By institution I mean your employer, university, college, school,
 hackerspace, library, coffee shop, local computer repair company,
 community ISP or just any organisation that would be in a position to run
 relays.

 I guess also we should talk about diversity and why diversity is
 important, i.e. please don't run your relay on OVH/DO if you have the
 option to run a relay somewhere else (or run both).

 > I might be able to find some salt stack tor relay ops but I'm not sure
 if that is public/maintained.

 We'd want to be careful to only include things that are maintained. If
 something is not public, it's only not public *yet* and that conversation
 can be had with the maintainer. It would be important to not end up
 becoming the maintainer, as Tor people already are busy, but if we end up
 with new people then that's great.

 Another thought, let's also not forget bridges in this.
