It was probably the talk from Philipp Winter at the 32c3. Just for
reference on this list or people who find it interesting.

I think there is no general answer for what should be the default
config/setup for a bridge. Maybe a (ncurses) menu at the install would
be the best.
The menu could inform new bridge operators about what is good/bad and
why or even what types of proxies are currently needed more. Or provide
at least a link to a wiki article (which should be written :))
