Replying to [comment:1 karsten]:
> Rewriting parts of George's Python-based censorship detector in R sounds
useful if it helps researching alternative approaches. Whenever you have
code for that, I'll add it to the [https://gitweb.torproject.org/metrics-
tasks.git/ metrics-tasks] repository.
Yes, we are working right now on a couple of alternative algorithms with
the goal of contrasting them. We may find that one is best overall, or we
may find that different approaches work better under specific conditions.
The port to R is intended to make it easier to prototype and graph
quickly.

compare detection algorithms and determine which one we want to deploy.
Turning the algorithm(s) we like most into a tool is the next step and
probably requires a new ticket. And even then I'm not sure if this will
be a stand-alone tool for users (which is what Metrics Utilities is for)
or rather a web-based service, e.g., part of the Metrics Website.
Sounds good!
