Afaik no formal work, only some early framing and manual collection exists, most
of which is linked within that blog post and its wiki pages therein.
Feel free to float
your ideas here as a means to further develop / doc that framing and go for it.
Tor-talk might also be able to provide input / volunteers,
particularly about how services
handle tor differently during actual use, such as how user accounts are treated.
(Any scanner can detect frontpage blockage, which is useful project
info itself.)
