The proper way to do this is by implementing upnp/nat-pmp into tor itself. This process is underway.

Putting upnp in Tor is a good start, but not the same as having a Windows bundle with the bridge box preclicked.

That said, this was designed as a quick hack to let Sina et al tell people to just run that version of Tor, and you'll be helping out more. But we need to wait until #98 (moved) is resolved, or we'll probably be hurting more than helping.

Leaving trac entry open since we may still want to do this quick hack later on -- I expect #98 (moved) will be resolved much sooner than we'll finish a "Tor opts to become a bridge" deployment.

Bumping up the priority on this because we now have more people interested in this bundle living and being deployed. It will also deliver some data as to how many new bridges are created versus how many downloads this bundle receives.

These have been built and blogged, but need to be added to the download page.

Is this considered complete? 

I see them on the download page now. I'm going to call this one closed.

Removing the milestone. This isn't how milestones are supposed to work. "Experimental Bridge Bundles" is a task or maybe a project, but not a milestone. The next time we should use a parent ticket instead. I'm not creating one now, because nobody cares anymore.
