Hi Rob,

are you asking for a summary of our discussion in Valencia or for the
current state of things?

Here's a quick update on the two stats you're mentioning:

 - I'm working on replacing client IP stats by implementing stats on
directory requests by transport and IP version (#8786).  I got a bit
distracted by the fact that we're currently not counting IPv6
directory requests at all (#18460), but once that's solved, I'll
resume working on the other ticket.

 - I asked a metrics team volunteer to look at exit stats and the
possible benefits from gathering them and then forgot about that task.
 I'll look at these stats myself this week.

I also added an item to the metrics roadmap, so that we can revisit
this discussion at metrics team meetings:

All the best,
Karsten
