TorButton no longer exists on its own, and our link to TorLauncher no longer worked. Pointing to TorButton's codebase since that's getting most activity, and the TorBrowser repo says it's for "old, pre 3.x". * Dropping Orchid again. It hasn't received any commits since November 2013 (a full year) - if the project indeed is still active somewhere then we need an updated link. * Dropped chiiph from Vidalia. He's been gone for a long time now, and we should be upfront that we don't have a maintainer. Adjusted maintainers elsewhere where appropriate to match who's actually working on things. * Dropping Torouter as it's been inactive since 2011 and isn't used in practice. There's lots of neat directions this space can go, but presently this codebase isn't it. * Listing the new maintainer of torsocks. --- getinvolved/en/volunteer.wml | 157 +++++++++--------------------------------- 1 file changed, 34 insertions(+), 123 deletions(-) diff --git a/getinvolved/en/volunteer.wml b/getinvolved/en/volunteer.wml index 4b87180..de02ed7 100644 --- a/getinvolved/en/volunteer.wml +++ b/getinvolved/en/volunteer.wml @@ -45,7 +45,7 @@ list of programs</a> that can be configured to use Tor.</li> <li>We have a huge list of <a href="<wiki>doc/SupportPrograms">potentially useful - programs that interface to Tor</a>.
