The 404 is fine. I wasn't complaining about the error code, but rather
inquiring about the future status of that bridge DB output. Knowing that
it's gone deliberately & forever avoids a lot of puzzlement. I hope that
as the outputs continue to change, someone finds the time to rewrite

https://collector.torproject.org/formats.html#bridge-descriptors .

While things are in process, it would suffice to write above defunct
items something like "The following  <item> has been
permanently|temporarily|whatever disabled as of ddmmyy" Please take pity
on the bridge operators! - eliaz
