We are working on improving Tor's pluggable transports specification: https://spec.torproject.org/pt-spec
The goal is to make the spec useful to more people and fix issues that have accumulated over the years. For more context, have a look at the following ticket, which we use to coordinate this effort: https://bugs.torproject.org/29285
Before changing the spec, we need to understand its shortcomings and what issues implementers have run into. For those of you who have experience with the spec -- either Tor's version 1.0 or version 2.1 maintained by pluggabletransports.info -- please let us know:
What version of the PT specification and what library implementation (if any) are you using?
What has your experience been with the PT specification?
How would you improve the specification?
There are a couple of threads from 2017 relating to the development of the 2.0 spec, which have some detailed comments.
