Hi,
I'd like to contribute by building Tor Browser on a fast machine.
My understanding is that -nightly was broken last week. Is this a good place to learn when it's unbroken so that I can start building?
Thanks, Linus

This is a fine place for this, yes. So, currently there are two blockers I know of: #17124 and #16909. I think I finally got the patch for the former one right. I could fix the latter as well just by doing some sed stuff on top of the patch I reverted. I hoped I could convince the EFF to fix the code on their side for us which is why I did not move this forward (apart from pinging jsha). I think waiting another four days and fixing things on Monday either way is my preferred way of dealing with it at the moment.

Thanks for the confirmation and explanation. Please let me know if you'd want -alpha built at any time.
