It looks like meek has been blocked in China since about 2016-10-19. (See the red line in the attached graph.)
I didn't get any reports or anything; I just happened to check the graph.
I tried but have not yet been able to reproduce any blocking by making HTTPS requests from a measurement location in China.

It looks like they finally figured it out. Any ideas on how this happened? Are there any efficient workarounds?

Some time has passed and this no longer looks like a block by China to me. For one thing, there was a simultaneous drop in many countries, not only China:

And on November 10, there was a simultaneous increase to previous levels:

I still don't know what might have happened, but it doesn't seem like a censorship block.

For what it’s worth it seems like OONI data also confirms that the domains used by meek for cloudfronting don’t appear to be blocked in China on 2016-11-07:

Unfortunately we don’t have data from the 2016-10-19 period.
