Drop 'Profile UDP transport protocols'
Yawning asked for this to be removed as it's likely too big for students this summer. --- getinvolved/en/volunteer.wml | 26 -------------------------- 1 file changed, 26 deletions(-)

This project - will evaluate these options, so as to decide which should be used in future - versions of Tor. A first step will be to benchmark the various transport - protocols being considered, in terms of performance and also code quality, - including userspace TCP, <a - href="https://github.com/bittorrent/libutp%22%3E%CE%BCTP</a>, <a - href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stream_Control_Transmission_Protocol%22%3ESCTP</a> - and <a href="http://curvecp.org/">CurveCP</a>. Initially these transport - protocols will be examined in isolation, but if the project progresses well - one or more could be integrated in Tor. - </p> - </li> - <a id="makeTorbirdyBetter"></a> <li> <b>Make TorBirdy Better</b>
