Re: [tor-relays] We need bridges with iat-mode set to 1 and especially 2 as well!

Hi,
Setting up more and more obfs4 bridges is fine, but it literally took me 1 hour to get a bridge supporting iat-mode=2 through https://bridges.torproject.org (that is knowing how to circumvent the fingerprinting measures on that site, which are intended to make it harder for adversaries to get bridge IP's), this is unacceptable as this is the only way I can connect to Tor in my country. obfs4 has the possibility to obfuscate the packet size and timing of the underlying protocol it obfuscates, so why is almost no bridge using it? A call for action is needed, additionally, please also add information about this to the "How to set up a Relay / Bridge" pages.
Please do something.

Running in iat-mode=2 requires more than editing the obfs4 bridge config in $DATADIRECTORY/pt_state ?

I wonder why it is not possible to have the bridge client negotiating the iat-mode when connecting to a bridge. So that all obfs4 bridges could run in iat-mode 0, 1 and 2. By reading the obfs4 spec I can see only these 3 possible values for iat-mode, is there any other?
