    Compare descriptor parsing libraries
    
    First step for the scheme Karsten and I hatched to comparing our libraries...
    
      https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-dev/2015-October/009606.html
    
    This is the easy part. Next up need to write some metrics-lib scripts to get
    some performance benchmarks...

+Are there any other parsing libraries?
+--------------------------------------
+
+Yup! Stem isn't the only game in town when it comes to parsing. `Metrics-lib
+<https://gitweb.torproject.org/metrics-lib.git/>`_ is a highly mature parsing
+library for Java, and `Zoossh
+<https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/phw/zoossh.git/>`_ is available for Go.
+Each library has its own capabilities...
