Comment:

 I just looked at Bridges.py and ran a quick test to see what BridgeDB does
 when giving it a bridge descriptor or bridge network status as described
 in proposal 186.  The result is that BridgeDB simply ignores the "or-
 address" and "a" lines as described in proposal 186.  BridgeDB continues
 to give out the bridge's IPv4 address.

 That's good news in that we can deploy the proposal 186 changes without
 worrying about BridgeDB.

 But of course, if we want BridgeDB to give out IPv6 addresses, we'll have
 do what the ticket subject says.
