Hello all,

Due to a moment of surprising productivity, I have a release candidate of obfsclient available now. For those of you that missed the last thread regarding this, it is a C++11 client implementation of obfs2, obfs3, and ScrambleSuit that works as a drop in replacement for obfsproxy.

Notable changes since the last time I posted: * ScrambleSuit code is now up to spec. * Packet length and Inter-packet Arrival Times are randomized. * Session Ticket Handshake is supported. * obfsclient will give up on handshaking after 60 seconds. * Needed because obfsproxy servers do not close the connection for certain protocols. * SIGINT is hooked and handled per the pt spec. * Some dumb bugs were fixed.

Places where obfsclient behaves differently from obfsproxy: * Current production obfsproxy releases disable Scramblesuit IAT obfuscation. obfsclient also uses slightly different logic for sending with it enabled. (May change for final release) * WELL512 is used instead of MT for the ScrambleSuit packet length obfuscation. * obfsclient gives up when the handshaking stalls. * The SOCKS5 response is sent post obfuscation protocol handshake instead of before. * obfsclient uses SOCKS5 instead of SOCKS4. * The ScrambleSuit Session Ticket store is a plain text file.

Things that are not bugs: * ScrambleSuit requires the client side tor to be 0.2.5.x. * The code will not build if the compiler is from the stone age.

To what I assume will be a sigh of relief from Fabian, I tested on FreeBSD as well this time. The systems used for testing are in the release notes.
