Here are some ideas I'd be willing to mentor if anyone thinks they're good/bad:
- Creating a Crash Reporter and accompanying backend
- Privacy-preserving metrics gathering (RAPPOR + opt-in) - this might be too ambitious though...
- .onion, HTTP/2, Alt-Srv investigation - An idea of speeding up sites by serving them over a .onion with HTTP2 using the Alt-Srv header, probably with judicious use of server push
- Security Slider Enhancements (Putting more features in FF behind the slider) - this one is probably not ambitious enough

Hi all! This week I'm getting our ducks in a row to apply for Google Summer of Code 2017...
https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/
I just trimmed our volunteer page of projects that were done last year and sadly that doesn't leave us with much. We need mentors and project ideas!
Got anything you'd care to mentor this summer? If so please let me know! Just send me a description like the ones on the following and I'd be happy to add it to our site...
https://www.torproject.org/getinvolved/volunteer.html.en#Coding
Please note that all projects must have two mentors, one of which is an established tor person. If you're not part of our internal community that's fine, but please find a core developer to co-sponsor your project and act as a secondary mentor.
Thanks! -Damian _______________________________________________ tor-project mailing list tor-project@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-project
