Hi, all!

From https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/roadmaps/Tor/024 :

"October 10, 2012: Big feature proposal checkpoint. Any large complicated feature which requires a design proposal must have its first design proposal draft by this date." There are only 23 days till October 10. If there's something you want in 0.2.4.x, and it is the kind of thing that needs a design proposal, and there is no proposal yet, it could be time to start writing! What needs a design proposal? Generally: anything that involves a change to the Tor protocol; anything whose security implications are nontrivial and need discussion; and anything that will change any Tor specification. Err on the side of "it needs a proposal." What is a "large complicated feature"? Please assume I'm going to be extremely grumpy here, and err on the side of "it is big". If the writeup of the proposal that explains how it works, or why to do it this way is going to take more than a few paragraphs, it is probably 'big' or 'complex'. (Note to would-be system-gamers: Please don't send a sketchy incomplete draft as a placeholder to get your foot in the door. That's not cool. If you don't have a draft ready, the feature can wait till 0.2.5.) (Note also: a feature proposal by this deadline is a necessary condition for getting your big/tricky/complicated feature into 0.2.4, but not a sufficient condition. It also needs to have a working implementation on schedule.) (Note finally: This is not a promise to not merge stuff that violates this deadline, but I sure will be trying not to merge such stuff.) yrs, -- Nick
