 using the very same geoip file in a graph covering years of data. We'll
 need to find a way for automating updating geoip files. And we need to
 define which geoip file we're using for any given consensus. That last
 sentence alone is far from being trivial if we want to ensure that two
 people have a chance to independently produce the same graph.

 Well, Onionoo uses the latest of these GeoIP files in MaxMind's format.
 But nothing else in Tor Metrics uses these files. Nothing of this is hard,
 it's just a couple substeps that need to be done.

 Not really. These were just some examples, not a list of things that need
 to be done to resolve this ticket. I'd like to leave the implementation
 steps to whoever implements this.
