Every 3rd Friday of the month the Tor L10n Team meets to translate together, share tricks, have fun while translating, meet fellow translators, and find out about the l10n priorities for the Tor Project. Tomorrow on the hangout we will talk about the coming updates of the Tor Browser, with new connection - bridges configuration. We will install a Tor alpha to see how the new connection works and what is a Bridge emoji. Come join us on the Localization Hangout, from Noon UTC, on the #tor-l10n channel in OFTC.
