The good guys? Status quo? No! MM/YAMN/OM are status quo. They
represent a high-security remailing system those guys try to erode.
The "Modern Tor-Based Alternatives" chapter is a complete hoax.
With such collaborate idiots it's all getting worse in this world.

obviously, wikipedia's current "anonymous_remailer" page could use some serious updating . . . e.g. why no mention of usenet or a.p.a-s? why is mixminion still there? and why are pseudonymous "tor-based alternatives" added to this anonymous remailers page instead of under "tor_(network)"?

Scouring Wikipedia for pages on anonymous remailing I
realized that all references to client side software
(PI, JBN, QS, OM) were removed. Receiving the false
impression that there's no software support for such
rather complex techniques John Q. Public can't help
being scared away from anonymous communication.
I wonder whose intention it is to mutilate Wikipedia
essays in order to keep those applications under
wraps? As a counterexample the articles "Mail
transfer agent" and "Email client" help you along
with comprehensive lists of related software, of
course not touching on the anonymity topic.
Isn't it time to react and bring that very important
PR medium back on board?

No.
I suggest that you guys are getting productive and set-up a Remailer FAQ,
or whatever it is called webpage, like a GitHub etc. repository, where you can host your Remailer Wiki, so that it can't be edited by third parties.

It is true that Onion Courier works similar to TypeI, however without
logging and storing data, compared to remailers, people use nowadays.
Secondly it has the advantage over Mixmaster/YAMN that anonymous nodes
can interact with public nodes without that the public nodes know the >connecting anonymous nodes. It is a fully decentralzed and global Tor
Hidden Service Anonymous Network, which can be run on local PCs.
Try that with Mixmaster/YAMN, their public IP addresses/Domains and
logging capabilities. Users of such systems can only been protected
with Tor. That should tell you somehting!
It remains to be seen if Zax is willing to implement the points I
have recently outlined here, regarding YAMN, to make YAMN truly
anonymous, without any logging capabilities postfix offers, while
postfix is not needed.

Due to latency, remixing and packets of unique size only remailers

Tor, which is vulnerable in this respect. Game over if you compare

Tor and remailers go hand in hand.
So if it's about Tor, why doesn't Class promote his crap at the Tor

That guy is mentally ill! And we have to take a stand against that

Why? It makes the network less reliable if a node loses all messages with every simple restart.
It uses http and not smtp, to avoid postfix usage
That's a very odd argument to make. Do all remailers use postfix?
The protocol was designed that logged metadata does not have information about message contents or link source and destination. Use Tor if you don't want remailer servers to see your IP address.

Are there any pingers that monitor network reliability and latency?

I don't know anything about this but:

postfix log files for Mixmaster or YAMN, if logging is enabled, can see the source and destination of all traffic, except a user connects via Tor.

But what I won't like is a Tor scenario, where the identity of remops is unknown, protected by hidden service addresses.
