Comment (by cohosh):

 Just took a look, and it looks great so far. The code is well written and
 the design makes sense to me.

 I'm still doubtful that we'd need or want to expose the API to the public.
 I can see some value in allowing operators to use the web interface as a
 self-check after they set up the bridge, but I'm curious about how much
 use it will get. Do you have any insights into this from setting up #30472
 before the bridge campaign?

 I think by far the most useful part of this is for bridgedb to auto detect
 that new bridges are unreachable or that existing bridges have gone
 offline.
