Hi,<div><br></div><div>I am a junior student at International Institute of Information Technology, Hyderabad with major in Computer Science and Security, and I am very interested in working for your organization this summer and further. I have a strong background in information security and algorithms. I strongly believe in the cause that you are fighting for - free/open Internet for all, and would like to support you by contributing to the code.</div>

<div><br></div><div>I have been through the paper by Roger Dingledine and Nick Mathewson, &quot;Design of a blocking-resistant anonymity system&quot; and your work aroused my interest. </div>
<div>I am trying to build up my knowledge in the field of information security with some hands-on experience, through projects. </div><div><br></div>
<div>The paper by Dingledine, Mathewson had a lot of proposals for making Tor blocking-resistant, but in your list of proposed projects I only found a project for implementing a HTTPS server in the list of project ideas. What is the current status of implementation of ideas listed? I would like to contribute by into the field of  algorithms and cryptography by implementing more ideas to make it even more blocking-resistant.</div>


<div><br></div><div>Please let me know what are the projects and ideas having maximum priority , so that I can start working on them right away.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks &amp; Regards,</div><div>Kaushik Srinivasan,</div>
