<br>
</span>Hi!<br>
<br>
The project is currently not being worked on.<br>
<br>
Mainly design work has been done so far; no code has been written.<br>
See:   <a href="https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-dev/2017-March/012001.html" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://lists.torproject.org/<wbr>pipermail/tor-dev/2017-March/<wbr>012001.html</a><br>
       <a href="https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-dev/2017-March/012073.html" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://lists.torproject.org/<wbr>pipermail/tor-dev/2017-March/<wbr>012073.html</a><br>
<br>
I suggest you pick it up by fleshing out the design work and seeing if<br>
it works for you, and then checking out the code to see where you need<br>
to inject the code. Perhaps you can also get in touch with Jaskaran<br>
Singh (<a href="mailto:jvsg1303@gmail.com">jvsg1303@gmail.com</a>) who did all the previous design work to see<br>
if he is interested in collaborating!<br>
<br>
Cheers!<br>
