I could imagine two scenarios here:

 - Somebody writes a better censorship detector on their own which
produces fewer false positives than the one we currently have [0], and
at some point we start running that on a Tor host and possibly have it
send notifications to this list.

 - The Tor Measurement Team sketches out requirements and possibly a
design for a future censorship detector and finds somebody to work on
it with the goal to run it on a Tor host and possibly send
notifications to this list.  The planning part here may take another
four to six weeks [1], and it's yet uncertain whether this project
will be higher priority than all the other things that need doing.
