Comment:

 This is a good start and gets all the right questions asked but I think we
 can be a bit clearer about what we think the answers to those questions
 should look like. For example, we don't want to add YAML/TOML/HCL parser
 libraries if we can avoid it.

 > What belongs into the data format for the data to be archived?

 * The name of software that produced the result.
 * The version of the software that produced the result.
 * If performing active measurement, the network location of the vantage
 point (e.g. IP address, ASN, and/or country).
 * If performing passive measurement, an identifier for the object of the
 observations (may be implicit if the same as the source identifier).

 I think we should be clearer about what exactly it is that we can do. We
 can archive data without doing anything else with it and our bar for that
 should be a lot lower than committing to analyzing and visualizing the
 data on an ongoing basis.

 > What data belongs on Tor Metrics?

 This I think should be changed to two sections "What data belongs in
 CollecTor?" and "What visualizations belong on the Tor Metrics Portal?".

 While we've decided not to do the OONI visualization for now, it would
 belong there even though that data is external.

 ----

 Would you like to have another pass or should I make these changes and
 then attach a new revision?
