Great. Thanks!

Are you referring to any specific missing bits, or raised issues? I
thought I'd addressed them all in my reply.

I have kept my ‘1.9-’ version base, to highlight that Nyx 2.0 is
supposedly its own thing; a complete re-write since Arm 1.4.5.

Kind regards,

statistics and status reports on:

@item bandwidth, processor, and memory usage,
@item the relay's current configuration,
@item logged events,
