This work — and Nick Kernan’s MS thesis —  was enabled by a generous donation of credits several years ago from the RIPE Atlas community — thanks a lot!  Now to keep this measurement going requires ~20M credits per month.   I’d like to assemble ~250M credits so we could keep this service up for a year.  By then we should be able to see if it’s proved to be valued by the community and whether and how to keep it going beyond this time horizon.  Would you please donate to my account what you can?
